The speed of light Never goes to 0. A is wrong.

The speed of light in refraction does not remain constant. B is incorrect

Light does not repel. That term is reserved for something like magnetism. C is not using the correct vocabulary.

D is the right answer.

In a simple RC circuit, at t=0 the switch is closed with the capacitor uncharged. If C=30µF, =50V and R=10k, what is the poten
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Voltage across the capacitor is 30 V and rate of energy across the capacitor is 0.06 W

Explanation:

As we know that the current in the circuit at given instant of time is

i = 2.0 mA

R = 10 k ohm

now we know by ohm's law

V = iR

V = (2 mA)(10 kohm)

V = 20 volts

so voltage across the capacitor + voltage across resistor = V

V_c + 20 = 50

V_c = 30 V

Now we know that

U = \frac{q^2}{2C}

here rate of change in energy of the capacitor is given as

\frac{dU}{dt} = \frac{q}{C} \frac{dq}{dt}

\frac{dU}{dt} = (30)(2 mA)

\frac{dU}{dt} = 0.06 W

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

20 hertz of frequency produced.

Explanation:

\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{period} }

Here we will find frequency and period should be in second, here given: 0.05 seconds

using the formula:

\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{0.05} }

\boxed{frequency =20}

Explain the relationship between temperature, energy, and motion of particles in an object.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Explanation:

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body.

Energy is the ability to do work by a body. They are of two forms, potential and kinetic energy. Potential energy is due to the position of a body whereas kinetic energy is due to the motion of a body.

Motion is the change in position of a body with time.

Temperature, energy and motion are all related.

Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is concerned about the motion particles. This form of energy results from heat changes in a body which causes temperature differences.

When a body is heat and changes temperature, the particles begins to vibrate as they gain, thermal energy, a form of kinetic energy. At a point, the particles will break lose and set in motion.

True or false the potential energy of a freely object increases as it begins to fall
Eva8 [605]
False, as an object falls its potential energy turns into kinetic energy thus decreasing the potential energy.

A bungee cord has a spring constant of 82.5 N/m. After jumping, a person oscillates with a period of 7.50 s. What is the mass of
Arada [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

T = 2π √ (m/k)

T / 2π = √ (m/k)

T√k = 2π √m

(T√k) / 2π = √m

( (T√k) / 2π)^2 = m

m = ( (7.5√82.5) / 2π)^2

m = 117.66 Kg
