What happens to light that strikes a piece of glass

1 answer:

6 0

If a ray of light hits the surface of a sheet of glass, some light will be reflected by the surface of the glass. However, much of the light will pass through the glass, because glass is transparent. ... This 'bending of a ray of light' when it passes from one substance into another substance is called refraction.

A supercapacitor is an electrical energy storage device. A supercapacitor, initially charged to 2.1 thousand millivolts, supplie

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

the time taken t is 9.25 minutes

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

The initial charge on the supercapacitor = 2.1 × 10³ mV = 2.1 V

now, every minute, the charge lost is 9.9 %

so we need to find the time for which the charge drops below 800 mV or 0.8 V

to get the time, we can use the formula for compound interest in basic mathematics;

A = P × ( (1 - r/100 )ⁿ

where A IS 0.8, P is 2.1, r is 9.9

so we substitute

0.8 = 2.1 × ( 1 - 0.099 )ⁿ

0.8/2.1 = 0.901ⁿ

0.901ⁿ = 0.381

n = 9.25 minutes

Therefore, the time taken t is 9.25 minutes

Say I have a series circuit with 20v and four 65 ohm resistors, what is the current in each resistor?

Komok [63]

Data:

$E = 20 V$
$R_{1} = 65\Omega$
$R_{2} = 65\Omega$
$R_{3} = 65\Omega$
$R_{4} = 65\Omega$

Now that we have all the values we need properly identified, simply calculate the equivalent total resistance of the circuit and the intensity of the total electric current using the Ohm's Law:

 $R_{T} = R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3} + R_{4}$
$R_{T} = 65 + 65 + 65+ 65$
$R_{T} = 260\Omega$

Like this:

$I_{T} = \frac{E}{ R_{T} }$

$I_{T} = \frac{20}{ 260 }$
$I_{T} = 0,076923076...$

$\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}}$
Answer:
The intensity of the total electric current
 $\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}}$

P.S:. Since the association is in series, the current of 0.07A is the same for all resistors.
