Capacitors C1 = 6.45 µF and C2 = 2.50 µF are charged as a parallel combination across a 250 V battery. The capacitors are discon

nected from the battery and from each other. They are then connected positive plate to negative plate and negative plate to positive plate. Calculate the resulting charge on each capacitor.

Answer:

For C1, Q =  1.6125×10⁻³ C

For C2, Q =  6.25×10⁻⁴ C

Explanation:

Note: Since the capacitors are connected in parallel, The voltage across each of them is equal.

From the question,

Q = CV........................ Equation 1

Where Q = Charge on the capacitor, V = Voltage across the capacitor, C = Capacitance of the capacitor.

For the first capacitor,

Q = C1V............. Equation 2

Where C1 = 6.45 μF= 6.45×10⁻⁶ F, V = 250 V

Substitute into equation 2

Q = (6.45×10⁻⁶ )(250)

Q = 1.6125×10⁻³ C.

For the the second capacitor,

Q = C2V............. Equation 3

Given: C2 = 2.50 μF = 2.5×10⁻⁶ F, V = 250 V

Q = (2.5×10⁻⁶ )(250)

Q = 6.25×10⁻⁴ C

At what point does a rubber band have the most elastic potential energy? Explain.
madam [21]

Answer:

You input potential (stored) energy into the rubber band system when you stretched the rubber band back. Because it is an elastic system, this kind of potential energy is specifically called elastic potential energy. ... When the rubber band is released, the potential energy is quickly converted to kinetic (motion) energy.

An archeologist on a dig finds a fragment of an ancient
marin [14]

Answer:

19792.96488 years

Explanation:

\tau_{\dfrac{1}{2}} = Half life of carbon-14 atom = 5730 years

Disintegration is given by

\lambda=\dfrac{ln2}{\tau_{\dfrac{1}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{ln2}{5730}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=0.00012\ /years

The distintegration constant

0.093N_0=N_0e^{-\lambda t}\\\Rightarrow 0.093N_0=N_0e^{-0.00012 t}\\\Rightarrow ln\dfrac{1}{0.093}=0.00012t\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{ ln\dfrac{1}{0.093}}{0.00012}\\\Rightarrow t=19792.96488\ years

The age of the basket is 19792.96488 years
