Question:

g Suppose that you charge a 3 F capacitor in a circuit containing eight 3.0 V batteries, so the final potential difference acros

Vladimir79 [104]

The complex, highly technical formula for capacitors is

Q = C V

Charge = (capacitance) (voltage)

Charge = (3 F) (24 V)

Charge = 72 Coulombs

The positive plate of the capacitor is missing 72 coulombs worth of electrons. They were sucked into positive terminal of the battery stack.

The negative plate of the capacitor has 72 coulombs worth of extra electrons. They came from the negative terminal of the battery stack.

You should be aware that this is a humongous amount of charge ! An average lightning bolt, where electrons flow between a cloud and the ground for a short time, is estimated to transfer around 15 coulombs of charge !

The scenario in the question involves a "supercapacitor". 3 F is is no ordinary component ... One distributor I checked lists one of these that's able to stand 24 volts on it, but that product costs $35 apiece, you have to order at least 100 of them at a time, and they take 2 weeks to get.

Also, IF you can charge this animal to 24 volts, it will hold 864J of energy. You'd probably have a hard time accomplishing this task with a bag of leftover AA batteries.

Calculate the average force that must be exerted on a 0.145 kg baseball in order to give it an acceleration of 130 m/s^2. (round

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

18.9 N or 19 N rounded

Explanation:

m = 0.145 kg

a = 130 m/s^2

F = ma = (0.145 kg)(130 m/s^2) = 18.9 N

How high would a projectile go if it was launched from ground level with an initial speed of 26 m/s at an angle of 30 degrees ab

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Vy = 26 m/s sin 30 = 13 m/s vertical speed

t = Vy / a = 13 m/s / 9.80 m/s^2 = 1.33 sec time to reach Vy = 0

H = Vy t + 1/2 g t^2

H = 13 m/s * 1.33 sec - 1.33^2 * 9.8 / 2 m = 8.62 m

A flat uniform circular disk (radius = 2.30 m, mass = 1.00 ✕ 102 kg) is initially stationary. The disk is free to rotate in the

Vadim26 [7]

The resulting angular speed = 0.6 rad / s.

Explanation:

Here there is no external torque acting on the system thus we can apply the law of conservation of angular momentum

Angular momentum of the man = Iω

Where I = Inertia of the man about the axis of rotation

or I = M r 2

I = 50 * 1.25*1.25 = 78.125

w = Angular velocity of the man, that can be calculated as follows

Tangential velocity of man = v = 2m/s

So time taken to describe this circle is t = (2*pi* r) / v

Now angle described in 1 revolution θ = 2*pi radians

This angle is subtended in time t = (2*pi* r) / v

Thus angular speed = w = θ/t = 2*pi* ( v/ 2π r) = v/r = 2.70 / 1.25 = 2.16 rad/s

So angular momentum of man = Iw = 78.125 * 2.16 = 168.75.

To conserve the angular momentum before and after,

Angular momentum of disk = angular momentum of the man

i.e. Iw of disk = 168.75

disk of I = (disk of M*R^2) / 2

= (1.00 * 102 * 2.30 * 2.30) / 2

= 269.79

Thus 269.79 of disk of w = 168.75

Resulting angular speed of disk = 168.75 / 269.79 = 0.6 ras / s
