Three capacitors having capacitances of 8.40, 8.40, and 4.20μF, respectively, are connected in series across a 36.0-V potential

difference. (a) What is the charge on the 4.20−μF capacitor? (b) The capacitors are disconnected from the potential difference without allowing them to discharge. They are then reconnected in parallel with each other with the positively charged plates connected together. What is the voltage across each capacitor in the parallel combination?

Answer:

Therefore,

The charge on the 4.20μF capacitor is 75.6μC.

The voltage across each capacitor in the parallel combination is 10.8 Volt.

Explanation:

Given:

Three capacitors having capacitance,

C_{1}=8.4\mu F\\C_{2}=8.40\mu F\\C_{3}=4.20\mu F\\

are connected in series across a 36.0-V potential difference,

V= 36 V

To Find:

Qs = ? charge on the 4.20−μF

V = ? voltage across each capacitor in the parallel combination

Solution:

For Capacitor Series Combination we have,

\dfrac{1}{C_{s}}=\dfrac{1}{C_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{C_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{C_{3}}

Substituting the values we get

\dfrac{1}{C_{s}}=\dfrac{1}{8.4}+\dfrac{1}{8.4}+\dfrac{1}{4.2}\\\\C_{s}=2.1\mu F

As Capacitors are connected in series they have the same charge on each plates, and is given by

Q= C_{s}\times V

Substituting the values we get

Q= 2.1\mu F\times 36=75.6\mu C\\Q=75.6\mu C

Now when the plates are connected in Parallel we will have,

C_{p}=C_{1}+C_{2}+C_{3}

Substituting the values we get

C_{p}=8.4+8.4+4.2=21\mu F

As Capacitors are connected in Parallel they have the same Voltage on each plates, and is given by

V= \dfrac{Q_{1}+Q_{2}+Q_{3}}{C_{p}}

Substituting the values we get

V=\dfrac{75.6+75.6+75.6}{21}=10.8\ V

Therefore,

The charge on the 4.20μF capacitor is 75.6μC.

The voltage across each capacitor in the parallel combination is 10.8 Volt.

A net force of –8750N is used to stop of 1250.kg car travelling 25m/s. What braking distance is needed to bring the car to a hal
Karolina [17]

Answer:

d = 44.64 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force acting on the car, F = -8750 N

The mass of the car, m = 1250 kg

Initial speed of the car, u = 25 m/s

Final speed, v = 0 (it stops)

The formula for the net force is :

F = ma

a is acceleration of the car

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{-8750}{1250}\\\\a=-7\ m/s^2

Let d be the breaking distance. It can be calculated using third equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{0^2-(25)^2}{2\times (-7)}\\\\d=44.64\ m

So, the required distance covered by the car is 44.64 m.

A wall with a surface area of 10 m2 is 2.5 cm thick. The inner surface temperature of the wall is 4150C, but the outer surface i
klio [65]

Answer:

650.65 K or 377.5°C

Explanation:

Area = A = 10 m²

Thickness of wall = L = 2.5 cm = 2.5×10⁻² m

Inner surface temperature of wall = T_i = 415°C = 688.15 K

Outer surface temperature of wall = T_o

Heat loss through the wall = 3 kW = 3×10³ W

Thermal conductivity of wall = k = 0.2 W/m K

Assumptions made here as follows

  1. There is not heat generation in the wall itself
  2. The heat conduction is one dimensional
  3. Heat flow follows steady state
  4. The material has same properties in all directions i.e., it is homogeneous.

Considering the above assumptions we use the following formula

Q=\frac {T_i-T_o}{\frac{L}{kA}}\\\Rightarrow T_o=T_i-\frac {QL}{kA}\\\Rightarrow T_o=688.15-\frac {3\times 10^{3}\times 2.5\times 10^{-2}}{0.2\times 10}\\\Rightarrow T_o=650.65~K

∴ The temperature of the outer surface of the wall is 650.65 K or 377.5°C

The following is regarding Momentum Change and Force. help is needed please!
mixer [17]

The distance travelled  is 10 m and the velocity gained at the end of this time is 2 m/s.

<h3>Velocity of the object at the end of the time</h3>

F = mv/t

where;

  • m is mass of the object
  • v is velocity of the object
  • t is time

Ft = mv

v = Ft/m

v = (50 x 10)/250

v = 2 m/s

<h3>Distance traveled by the object</h3>

v² = u² + 2as

where;

u is initial velocity = 0

a is acceleration

a = F/m

a = 50 N/ 250 kg

a = 0.2 m/s²

v² = 0 + 2as

s = v²/2a

s = (2²)/(2 x 0.2)

s = 10 m

Thus, the distance travelled  is 10 m and the velocity gained at the end of this time is 2 m/s.
