Answer:

P.E = 196 J

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the box, m = 10 Kg

The height of the box from the ground, h = 2 m

The acceleration due to gravity, a = 9.8 m/s²

The gravitational potential energy of the box is given by the formula

P.E = mgh joules

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

P.E = 10 x 2 x 9.8

= 196 J

Hence, the gravitational potential energy of box, P.E = 196 J

A series circuit has a capacitor of 0.25 × 10⁻⁶ F, a resistor of 5 × 10³ Ω, and an inductor of 1H. The initial charge on the cap

Answer:

$q = (3 + e^{-4000 t} - 4 e^{-1000 t})\times 10^{-6}$

at t = 0.001 we have

$q = 1.55 \times 10^{-6} C$

at t = 0.01

$q = 2.99 \times 10^{-6} C$

at t = infinity

$q = 3 \times 10^{-6} C$

Explanation:

As we know that they are in series so the voltage across all three will be sum of all individual voltages

so it is given as

$V_r + V_L + V_c = V_{net}$

now we will have

$iR + L\frac{di}{dt} + \frac{q}{C} = 12 V$

now we have

$1\frac{d^2q}{dt^2} + (5 \times 10^3) \frac{dq}{dt} + \frac{q}{0.25 \times 10^{-6}} = 12$

So we will have

$q = 3\times 10^{-6} + c_1 e^{-4000 t} + c_2 e^{-1000 t}$

at t = 0 we have

q = 0

$0 = 3\times 10^{-6} + c_1 + c_2$

also we know that

at t = 0 i = 0

$0 = -4000 c_1 - 1000c_2$

$c_2 = -4c_1$

$c_1 = 1 \times 10^{-6}$

$c_2 = -4 \times 10^{-6}$

so we have

$q = (3 + e^{-4000 t} - 4 e^{-1000 t})\times 10^{-6}$

at t = 0.001 we have

$q = 1.55 \times 10^{-6} C$

at t = 0.01

$q = 2.99 \times 10^{-6} C$

at t = infinity

$q = 3 \times 10^{-6} C$

In addition to plate tectonics, what is the other main driving force of the rock cycle?

GREYUIT [131]

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Rocks contains pores and spaces in them in which water gets trapped, and this causes the rock to break as water increases its volume due to freezing. This rocks are then eroded and are carried away into the streams and channels. The rivers and streams can carry particles of various shapes and size, which are further transported and deposited at a different place.

This particles or sediments then gets compacted and lithified in due course of time, and forms sedimentary rocks.

Water is also needed to undergo metasomatism process, that creates a metamorphic rock.

Hence, water flow is also an important driving force in rock cycle, along with tectonic activities.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
