Answer:

In parallel combination, the capacity of each capacitor is 11 F.

In series combination, the capacity of each capacitor is 44 F.

Explanation:

Let there are two capacitors each of capacitance C.

When they are connected in parallel:

In parallel combination, the effective capacitance is Cp.

Cp = C1 + C2 = C + C

22 = 2 C

C = 11 F

When they are connected in series:

In parallel combination, the effective capacitance is Cs.

1 / Cs = 1 / C1 + 1 / C2 = 1 / C + 1 / C = 2 / C

1 / 22 = 2 / C

C = 44 F

A certain first-order reaction is 58% complete in 95 s. What are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this proc
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

a_o=a\times e^{-kt}

where,

k = rate constant  

t = age of sample

a_o = let initial amount of the reactant  

a = amount left after decay process  

We have :

a_o=x

a=58\%\times x=0.58x

t = 95 s

0.58x=x\times e^{-k\times 95 s}

\k= 0.005734 s^{-1}

Half life is given by for first order kinetics::

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

=\frac{0.693}{0.005734 s^{-1}}=120.86 s

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

A slab of glass has a 0.600 cm thick layer of water on top of it. A light ray strikes the water at an incident angle of 59.0°. A
Dimas [21]

Answer:

49.63 degree

Explanation:

thickness of glass slab, t = 0.6 cm

angle of incidence = 59 degree

Let r be the angle of refraction

The refractive index of glass, ng = 3/2

refractive index of water, nw = 4/3

refarctive index of glass with respect to water = ng / nw = 3 /2 ÷ 4 /3 = 9 / 8

So, by use of Snell's law

Refractive index of glass with respect to water = Sin i / Sin r

9 / 8 = Sin 59 / Sin r

9 / 8 = 0.857 / Sin r

Sin r = 0.7619

r = 49.63 degree

Due to efficiency considerations related to its bow wake, the supersonic transport aircraft must maintain a cruising speed that
givi [52]

Answer:

decreases.

Explanation:

When the aircraft is flies from the warm air into the  colder air then its speed will be decreases.

as we know that

we know mach number is constant  

so that here Mach number M is expressed as  

M = \frac{u}{v}      .............................1

here u is  Local flow velocity with respect to the boundarie and v is the speed of sound in the medium

If the aircraft flies from hot air to cold air, the speed of sound in the medium will decrease. But the Mach number remains constant. Therefore, the local flow velocity relative to the boundaries also decreases.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

x=0.154kg

Explanation:

(x*L)+(0.5kg*4200*50)+(x*4200*(-50)=0

(x*333 000J/kg*c)+(0.5kg*4200J/kg*C*(-40C))+(x*4200J/kg*C*50C)=0

A rock is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 16 ft/s from an initial height of 5 ft. write a quadratic function equation
Andrei [34K]
During upward projection the final velocity is zero, and the gravitational acceleration is -10 m/s² (against the gravity).
Therefore; using the equation;
S = 1/2gt² + ut
Where s is the height h, g is gravitational acceleration, and t is the time and u is the initial velocity u, is 16 ft/s.
Thus; h= 1/2(-10)t² + 16t
We get; h = -5t² + 16t
Therefore; the quadratic equation is 5t² - 16t + h =0
