What is the function of a capacitor in an electric circuit

Physics

Capacitors function is to store up electricity and release it when the current is flowing. When there is no current, Capacitors still have electricity stored in them and can be discharged accidentally if something conductive touches them.

You launch a cannonball at an angle of 35° and an initial velocity of 36 m/s (assume y = y₁=
velikii [3]

Answer:

Approximately 4.2\; {\rm s} (assuming that the projectile was launched at angle of 35^{\circ} above the horizon.)

Explanation:

Initial vertical component of velocity:

\begin{aligned}v_{y} &= v\, \sin(35^{\circ}) \\ &= (36\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})\, (\sin(35^{\circ})) \\ &\approx 20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

The question assumed that there is no drag on this projectile. Additionally, the altitude of this projectile just before landing y_{1} is the same as the altitude y_{0} at which this projectile was launched: y_{0} = y_{1}.

Hence, the initial vertical velocity of this projectile would be the exact opposite of the vertical velocity of this projectile right before landing. Since the initial vertical velocity is 20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} (upwards,) the vertical velocity right before landing would be (-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) (downwards.) The change in vertical velocity is:

\begin{aligned}\Delta v_{y} &= (-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - (20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ &= -41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

Since there is no drag on this projectile, the vertical acceleration of this projectile would be g. In other words, a = g = -9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}.

Hence, the time it takes to achieve a (vertical) velocity change of \Delta v_{y} would be:

\begin{aligned} t &= \frac{\Delta v_{y}}{a_{y}} \\ &= \frac{-41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}}{-9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}} \\ &\approx 4.2\; {\rm s} \end{aligned}.

Hence, this projectile would be in the air for approximately 4.2\; {\rm s}.

disa [49]

It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier.

Scientific notation is a system used in order to It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier. It is useful as it allows very large number that would take a lot of space to write otherwise, and it allows them to be calculated easier. 10^{23} for example is a incredible large number, but written in this form is immediately understandable and useful for calculation.

Examples of non viscous liquid​
Musya8 [376]

The fluids that have no resistance or zero resistance to internal friction are known as non- viscous fluids. • The fluid which has more resistance to flow is called viscous fluid. Viscosity is a property of a fluid, which is a degree of the amount of resistance between the fluid layers.
