Use V=Voe^-t/RC and T=RC to derive T1/2=Tln2
1 answer:
Enclosed is some guidance algebra.I find this q a little confusing. It quotes "RC" which usually makes me think of electrical circuits and time constants based on converting calculating RC value and equating that to t for one time constant then 2RC for two time constants etc. The theory being that after 5 time constants - 5RC - a circuit is stable. BUT, this q then goes on to mention HALF LIFE. The curves for both half life and time constant are both exponential, as in the number e to the power of something, but the algebra is slightly different. I hope my algebra is ok.

Answer:
For vector u, x component = 10.558 and y component =12.808
unit vector = 0.636 i+ 0.7716 j
For vector v, x component = 23.6316 and y component = -6.464
unit vector = 0.9645 i-0.2638 j
Explanation:
Let the vector u has magnitude 16.6
u makes an angle of 50.5° from x axis
So
Vertical component
So vector u will be u = 10.558 i+12.808 j
Unit vector
Now in second case let vector v has a magnitude of 24.5
Making an angle with -15.3° from x axis
So horizontal component
Vertical component
So vector v will be 23.6316 i - 6.464 j
Unit vector of v
