The sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects caused by contact, an electrical short, or dielectric breakdown. A buildup of static electricity can be caused by tribocharging or by electrostatic induction.

A Christmas light is made to flash via the discharge of a capacitor. The effective duration of the flash is 0.25 s (which you ca

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The correct solution is:

(a) $1.375\times 10^{-2} \ J$

(b) $4.43\times 10^{-3} \ C$

(c) $1.42\times 10^{-3} \ F$

(d) $178.57 \ \Omega$

Explanation:

The given values are:

Effective duration of the flash,

ζ = 0.25 s

Average power,

$P_{avg}=55 \ mW$

$=55\times 10^{-3} \ W$

Average voltage,

$V_{avg}=3.1 \ V$

Now,

(a)

⇒ $E=P_{avg}\times \zeta$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=55\times 10^{-3}\times 0.25$

⇒ $=1.375\times 10^{-2} \ J$

(b)

⇒ $E=Q\times V_{avg}$

then,

⇒ $Q=\frac{E}{V_{avg}}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{1.375\times 10^{-2}}{3.1}$

⇒ $=4.43\times 10^{-3} \ C$

(c)

⇒ $C=\frac{Q}{V}$

⇒ $=\frac{4.43\times 10^{-3}}{3.1}$

⇒ $=1.42\times 10^{-3} \ F$

(d)

As we know,

⇒ $R=\frac{1}{4C}$

⇒ $=\frac{1}{4\times 1.42\times 10^{-3}}$

⇒ $=\frac{1000}{5.6}$

⇒ $=178.57 \ \Omega$

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

1. increases

2. increases

3. increases

Explanation:

Part 1:

First of all, since the box remains at rest, the horizontal net force acting on the box must equal zero:

F1 - fs = 0.

And this friction force fs is:

fs = Nμs,

where μs is the static coefficient of friction, and N is the normal force.

Originally, the normal force N is equal to mg, where m is the mass of the box, and g is the constant of gravity. Now, there is an additional force F2 acting downward on the box, which means it increases the normal force, since the normal force by Newton's third law, is the force due to the surface acting on the box upward:

N = mg + F2.

So, F2 is increasing, that means fs is increasing too.

Part 2:

As explained in the part 1, N = mg + F2. F2 is increasing, so the normal force is thus increasing.

Part 3:

In part 1 and part 2, we know that fs = Nμs, and since the normal force N is increasing, the maximum possible static friction force fs, max is also increasing.

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10000n/m and nominal length of 0.50.what is the total length

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

<em>The total length of the spring would be 0.65 m</em>

Explanation:

The Concept

Hooke's law evaluates the increment of spring in relation to the force acting on the body. Hooke's law states that for a spring undergoing deformation, the force applied is directly proportional to the deformation experienced by the spring. Hooke's law is represented thus;

F = k x ..................1

where F is the force applied to the spring

k is the spring constant

x is the spring stretch or extension

Step by Step Calculations

We have to obtain x before adding it to the nominal length, We make x the subject formula in equation 1;

x = F/k

but F = m x g

so, x = (m x g)/k

given that, the mass of the person m =150 kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/ $s^{2}$

k is the spring constant = 10000 N/m

then x = (9.81 m/ $s^{2}$ x 150 kg)/10000 N/m

x = 0.14715 m

the extension experienced by the spring after the compression is 0.14715 m

The total length of the spring would be;

L = 0.14715 m + 0.5 m = 0.64715

L ≈ 0.65 m

Therefore the total length of the spring would be 0.65 m
