An RC circuit is connected across an ideal DC voltage source through an open switch. The switch is closed at time t = 0 s. Which

of the following statements regarding the circuit are correct?
a) The capacitor charges to its maximum value in one time constant and the current is zero at that time.
b) The potential difference across the resistor and the potential difference across the capacitor are always equal.
c) The potential difference across the resistor is always greater than the potential difference across the capacitor.
d) The potential difference across the capacitor is always greater than the potential difference across the resistor
e) Once the capacitor is essentially fully charged, There is no appreciable current in the circuit.

Answer:

e)

Explanation:

In an RC series circuit, at any time, the sum of the voltages through the resistor and the capacitor must be constant and equal to the voltage of the DC voltage source, in order to be compliant with KVL.

At= 0, as the voltage through the capacitor can't change instantaneously, all the voltage appears through the resistor, which means that a current flows, that begins to charge the capacitor, up to a point that the voltage through the capacitor is exactly equal to the DC voltage, so no current flows in the circuit anymore, and the charge in the capacitor reaches to its maximum value.

What is the difference between rutherford's model of the atom and bohr's model of the atom
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Rutherford described the atom as consisting of a tiny positive mass surrounded by a cloud of negative electrons. Bohr thought that electrons orbited the nucleus in quantised orbits. Bohr built upon Rutherford's model of the atom. ... So it was not possible for electrons to occupy just any energy level.

What happens to light when it travels from air into water
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Water is more dense than air. When water goes through a denser thing, the light is "bent" more towards the "normal" which is a straight, vertical line.

An example of a high explosive is what?
nordsb [41]
The answer is Dynamite.
Explosive, any substance or device that can be made to produce a volume of rapidly expanding gas in an extremely brief period. Chemical explosives are of two types; detonating, or high explosives and deflagrating, or low, explosives. Detonating explosives, such as TNT and dynamite, are characterized by extremely rapid decomposition and development of high pressure, whereas deflagrating explosives, such as black and smokeless powders, involve merely fast burning and produce relatively low pressures.

An airplane travels at 300 mi/h south for 2.00 h and then at 250 mi/h north for 750 miles. What is the average speed for the tri
Anettt [7]

Answer:

270 mi/h

Explanation:

Given that,

To the south,

v₁ = 300 mi/h, t₁ = 2 h

We can find distance, d₁

d_1=v_1\times t_1\\\\d_1=300\times 2\\\\d_1=600\ \text{miles}

To the north,

v₂ = 250 mi/h, d₂ = 750 miles

We can find time, t₂

t_2=\dfrac{d_2}{v_2}\\\\t_2=\dfrac{750\ \text{miles}}{250\ \text{mi/h}}\\\\t_2=3\ h

Now,

Average speed = total distance/total time

V=\dfrac{d_1+d_2}{t_1+t_2}\\\\V=\dfrac{600+750}{2+3}\\\\V=270\ \text{mi/h}

Hence, the average speed for the trip is 270 mi/h.

A person is riding a motorized tricycle. They weigh 180kg and are moving at 3 m/s over a distance of 300 m. How much work is don
agasfer [191]

If I am to understand this question correctly this is what asks you:

If a person is riding a motorized tricycle how much work do they do?

You may ask yourself, why did I only use part of the question. Simple, the rest is not relevant to what is being asked. The weight, speed, and distance wont affect the person riding any <em><u>motorized vehicle</u></em> other than the time it takes to get from one place to another.

So to answer this question I would say:

Not much, all they really have to do is to steer and set the motorized tricycle to cruise control. Just like any rode certified vehicle.

If you have any questions about my answer please let me know and I will be happy to clarify any misunderstandings. Thanks and have a great day!
