Answer:
In a closed system, the total energy is conserved or remains the same as energy transformations take place.
Explanation:
The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.
This law of conservation of energy applies only to a closed system. A closed system is a system which does not exchange energy with its surroundings. All forms of energy conversions occurring within a closed system does not result in an increase or decrease of the total energy of the system, rather, energy remains constant. For example, the universe is a closed system in that all forms of energy conversions occurs within it and energy is not exchanged with an external environment. However, the earth is not a closed system as some of the energy it receives from the sun can be radiated out into space. Since it's an open system, its total energy can change.

Explanation:
<u>Motion with Constant Acceleration</u>
A body moves with constant acceleration when the speed changes uniformly in time. The equation used to find the final speed vf is
Where vo is the initial speed, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.
The cyclist has an initial speed of vo=10 miles/hour and ends up at vf=20 miles/hour in t=5 seconds.
Both speeds are given in miles/hour and we must convert it to m/s:
1 mile/hour = 0.44704 m/s
10 mile/hour = 4.47 m/s
20 mile/hour = 8.94 m/s
The acceleration is calculated by solving for a:
Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the resistor and directly to the potential difference across it.
I = V/R = 6/12 = 0.5 A

Answer:
it will take 36.12 ms to reduce the capacitor's charge to 10 μC
Explanation:
Qi= C×V
then:
Vi = Q/C = 30μ/20μ = 1.5 volts
and:
Vf = Q/C = 10μ/20μ = 0.5 volts
then:
v = v₀e^(–t/τ)
v₀ is the initial voltage on the cap
v is the voltage after time t
R is resistance in ohms,
C is capacitance in farads
t is time in seconds
RC = τ = time constant
τ = 20µ x 1.5k = 30 ms
v = v₀e^(t/τ)
0.5 = 1.5e^(t/30ms)
e^(t/30ms) = 10/3
t/30ms = 1.20397
t = (30ms)(1.20397) = 36.12 ms
Therefore, it will take 36.12 ms to reduce the capacitor's charge to 10 μC.
