Answer:

<h2>A. 6pF</h2>

Explanation:

If unknown capacitance C1, C2, C3 and C4 are connected in series to one another, their equivalent capacitance of the circuit will be expressed as shown

\frac{1}{C_t} = \frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2} +\frac{1}{C_3} +\frac{1}{C_4} \\

Given the capacitance's 3.0 pF, 2.0 pF, 5.0 pF and X pF connected in series to each other. If the equivalent capacitance of the circuit is 0.83 pF, then to get X, we will apply the formula above;

\frac{1}{0.83} = \frac{1}{3.0} +\frac{1}{2.0} +\frac{1}{5.0} +\frac{1}{C_4} \\\\\\1.205 = 0.333+0.5+0.2+\frac{1}{C_4} \\\\1.205 = 1.033 + \frac{1}{C_4} \\\\\frac{1}{C_4}  = 1.205-1.033\\\\\frac{1}{C_4}  = 0.172\\\\C_4 = \frac{1}{0.172}\\ \\C_4 = 5.8pF\\\\

C₄ ≈ 6pF

Hence the value of the X capacitor is approximately 6pF

What does it mean to say that a wave is a cyclic, or periodic, disturbance
Ivenika [448]

Wave is a disturbance or energy that propagate through medium from one point to other point

So basically it is a flowing energy that flows into the medium and hence medium particles start oscillating about their mean position to and fro.

This motion of medium particles or this to and fro motion is about their mean position and this will always be cyclic or periodic motion

This means the disturbance or energy continuously flow through the medium such that it will change the position of medium particle and this will be cyclic in order

For an example

y = A sin(\omega t + kx + \phi)

so here above equation of wave is a travelling wave in which displacement of medium particle from its mean position is given by "y"

Now we can see that this disturbance depends upon the sine function and it will repeat its same position after every 2 pi time interval as it is cyclic function for this value

Due to this phenomenon of repeatation of its same position we can say that it is disturbance of wave is cyclic.

A 97 kg man lying on a surface of negligible friction shoves a 62 g stone away from himself, giving it a speed of 2.6 m/s. What
tangare [24]

Answer:

man will move in opposite direction with speed

v_1 = 1.66 \times 10^{-3} m/s

Explanation:

As we know that man is lying on the friction-less surface

so here net force along the surface is zero

so if we take man + stone as a system then net change in momentum of this system will become zero

so here we have

P_i = P_f

0 = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2

here we have

0 = (97)v_1 + 0.062(2.6)

v_1 = -\frac{0.1612}{97}

v_1 = -1.66 \times 10^{-3} m/s

A current of 5 A is flowing in a 20 mH inductor. The energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is:_______
Kipish [7]

Answer:

C. 0.25J

Explanation:

Energy stored in the magnetic field of the inductor is expressed as E = 1/2LI² where;

L is the inductance

I is the current flowing in the inductor

Given parameters

L = 20mH = 20×10^-3H

I = 5A

Required

Energy stored in the magnetic field.

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 5²

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 25

E = 10×10^-3 × 25

E = 0.01 × 25

E = 0.25Joules.

Hence the energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is 0.25Joules

What is the formula for instant velocity when I have time and distance?
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

v(t)= (d/dt)x(t)

Explanation:

The instantaneous velocity of an object is the limit of the average velocity as the elapsed time approaches zero, or the derivative of x with respect to t. Like average velocity, instantaneous velocity is a vector with dimension of length per time. The instantaneous velocity at a specific time point  t 0  is the rate of change of the position function, which is the slope of the position function  

x ( t ) at  t 0 .
