Answer:

I = 0.667 A

Explanation:

A capacitor behaves like a short circuit at t = 0 immediately after the switch is closed, therefore we can discard it from the equation, the resistance is given in watts or power units equivalent to current by voltage and the ammeter behave like a short circuit by nature.

Considering all of the above, the circuit looks like a battery in series with a resistor, therefore, we can use the power equation to solve the problem as follow:

P = I*V

4W = I*6V

I = 0.667 A

<span>You are given a circuit that contains a 6.0-v battery, a 4.0 ohm resistor, a 0.60 micro farad capacitor, an ammeter, and a switch all in series. You are asked to find the current reading after the switch is closed. Apply ohms law where V = IR where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistor.</span>

V = IR
I = V/R
I = 6 volts / 4 ohms
I = 1.5A

When the switch is closed, the cathode side plate begins to fill up with electrons when it was originally empty before the switch was closed. When it fills up the cathode side of the circuit, the current decreases. And when the capacitor cannot hold more electrons, the current will stop. The higher the capacitance, the higher is the capacity to store electrons.

The area of the effort and load of the Piston of a hydrolic are 0.5 and 5m respectively. If a force of 100 Newton is applied on
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using Pascal laws, which states that pressure are the input equals the pressure at the output.

Pressure is given as force/area

P1=P2

Then,

F1/A1=F2/A2

Cross multiply

F1A2=F2A1

Given that

Ae=0.5m² area of effort

Al=5m² area of load

Fl=? Force if load

Fe= 100N. Force of effort

Then applying pascal

Fl/Al=Fe/Ae

Fl/5=100/0.5

FL/5=200

Fl=200×5

Fl=1000N

The first safety load is 1000N

Explanation:

The name of the article from which the quote "Physicists speak of the continuous dance of sub-atomic matter which goes on all the time. They have actually used the words dance of creation and destruction or energy dance." was taken from is Carl Sagan Fritjof Capra on The dance that reveals the mysteries of the universe-Part ll

Describe motion of the sun
Olenka [21]

Answer:

The apparent motion of the sun, caused by the rotation of the Earth about its axis, changes the angle at which the direct component of light will strike the Earth. From a fixed location on Earth, the sun appears to move throughout the sky.

1. Block A with a mass of 1 kg and block B with a mass of 2 kg lie on a smooth table. You wish to apply a horizontal force to ea
goblinko [34]

The gravitational force on block B is twice as much as the gravitational force on block A.

<h3>What is Force?</h3>

Force is the product of mass and acceleration. If the mass of A is 1Kg and the mass of B is 2Kg, In order to give the masses the same horizontal acceleration, the magnitude of the force on block B must be twice as much as the force on block A.

Given that the mass of A is 1Kg and the mass of B is 2Kg, the gravitational force on block B is twice as much as the gravitational force on block A.

If I hold block A with a mass of 1 kg in one hand and block B with a mass of 2 kg in the other  and release both from the same height above the ground at the same time, the two blocks hit the ground at the same time, because they both accelerate at the same rate while falling. The greater gravitational force on block B is compensated by its greater mass, giving it the same acceleration.
