Answer:

The Current Iₜ = I₁ + I₂ + I₃

Charge Qₜ = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃

Potential difference Vₜ = V₁ = V₂ = V₃

The total capacitance Cₜ = C₁ + C₂ + C₃

Explanation:

According to the attached image;

For parallel arrangements of capacitors, the current flowing through each of the capacitors sums up to the total current flowing through the circuit;

Iₜ = I₁ + I₂ + I₃

Also the charge storage by each capacitor sums up to give the total charge stored;

Qₜ = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃

The potential difference across each of the capacitors are the same and equal to the total voltage across the circuit;

Vₜ = V₁ = V₂ = V₃

The total capacitance equals the sum of the capacitances of each of the capacitors;

Cₜ = C₁ + C₂ + C₃

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The angular velocity is 15.37 rad/s

Solution:

As per the question:

\theta = 54.6^{\circ}

Horizontal distance, x = 30.1 m

Distance of the ball from the rotation axis is its radius, R = 1.15 m

Now,

To calculate the angular velocity:

Linear velocity, v = \sqrt{\frac{gx}{sin2\theta}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8\times 30.1}{sin2\times 54.6}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8\times 30.1}{sin2\times 54.6}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{294.98}{sin109.2^{\circ}}} = 17.67\ m/s

Now,

The angular velocity can be calculated as:

v = \omega R

Thus

\omega = \frac{v}{R} = \frac{17.67}{1.15} = 15.37\ rad/s

A hot cube of iron was heated up using 1500 J of thermal energy and was placed in a beaker of water. Before it was heated, the i
Mariana [72]

Answer:

451.13 J/kg.°C

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = cm(t₂-t₁)............... Equation 1

Where Q = Heat, c = specific heat capacity of iron, m = mass of iron, t₂= Final temperature, t₁ = initial temperature.

Make c the subject of the equation

c = Q/m(t₂-t₁).............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: Q = 1500 J, m = 133 g = 0.113 kg, t₁ = 20 °C, t₂ = 45 °C

Substitute these values into equation 2

c = 1500/[0.133(45-20)]

c = 1500/(0.133×25)

c = 1500/3.325

c = 451.13 J/kg.°C
