Answer:

C₁ = 3 pF

C₂ = 6 pF

Explanation:

Let the capacitance be C₁ and C₂.

For parallel combination

C₁ +C₂ = 9

For series combination

2=\frac{C_1\times C_2}{C_1+C_2}

2=\frac{C_1\times C_2}{9}

C₁ X C₂ = 18

( 9-C₂ )X C₂ = 18

C₂²- 9C₂ +18 = 0

C₂ = 6 or 3.

C₁ = 3 or 6.

C₁ = 3 pF

C₂ = 6 pF

Charge is uniformly distributed around a ring of radius R and the resulting electric field magnitude E is measured along the rin
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

x=\dfrac{r}{\sqrt2}

Explanation:

Given that

Radius =r

Electric filed =E

Q=Charge on the ring

The electric filed at distance x given as

E=K\dfrac{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{3/2}}

For maximum condition

\dfrac{dE}{dx}=0

E=K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-3/2}}

\dfrac{dE}{dx}=K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-3/2}}-\dfrac{3}{2}\times 2\times x\times K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-5/2}}

For maximum condition

\dfrac{dE}{dx}=0

K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-3/2}}-\dfrac{3}{2}\times 2\times x\times K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-5/2}}=0

r^2+x^2-3x^2=0

x=\dfrac{r}{\sqrt2}

At x=\dfrac{r}{\sqrt2} the electric field will be maximum.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

0.2 m

Explanation:

PHASE 1

First, we calculate the distance the tongue moved in the first 20 ms (0.02 secs). We use one of Newton's equations of linear motion:

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where u = initial velocity = 0 m/s

a = acceleration = 250 m/s^2

t = time = 0.02 s

Therefore:

s = 0 + \frac{1}{2} * 250 * (0.02)^2\\\\\\s = 0.05 m

PHASE 2

Then, for the next 30 ms (0.03 secs), we use the formula:

distance = speed * time

This speed is the same as the final velocity of the tongue after the first 20 ms.

This can be obtained by using the formula:

v = u + at\\\\=> v = 0 + (250 * 0.02)\\\\\\v = 5 m/s

Therefore:

distance = 5 * 0.03 = 0.15 m

Therefore, the total distance moved by the tongue in the 50 ms interval is:

0.05 + 0.15 = 0.2 m
