Answer:

The maximum energy stored in the combination is 0.0466Joules

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Three capacitors C1-11.7 μF, C2 21.0 μF, and C3 = 28.8 μF are connected in series. To avoid breakdown of the capacitors, the maximum potential difference to which any of them can be individually charged is 125 V. Determine the maximum energy stored in the series combination.

Energy stored in a capacitor is expressed as E = 1/2CtV² where

Ct is the total effective capacitance

V is the supply voltage

Since the capacitors are connected in series.

1/Ct = 1/C1+1/C2+1/C3

Given C1 = 11.7 μF, C2 = 21.0 μF, and C3 = 28.8 μF

1/Ct = 1/11.7 + 1/21.0 + 1/28.8

1/Ct = 0.0855+0.0476+0.0347

1/Ct = 0.1678

Ct = 1/0.1678

Ct = 5.96μF

Ct = 5.96×10^-6F

Since V = 125V

E = 1/2(5.96×10^-6)(125)²

E = 0.0466Joules

To initiate a nuclear reaction, an experimental nuclear physicist wants to shoot a proton into a 5.50-fm-diameter 12C nucleus. T

Fantom [35]

Answer:

$V_1= 3.4*10^7m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Nucleus diameter $d=5.50-fm$

a 12C nucleus

Required kinetic energy $K=2.30 MeV$

Generally initial speed of proton must be determined,applying the law of conservation of energy we have

$K_2 +U_2=K_1+U_1$

where

$K_1$ =initial kinetic energy

$K_2$ =final kinetic energy

$U_1$ =initial electric potential

$U_2$ =final electric potential

mathematically

$U_2 = \frac{Kq_pq_c}{r_2}$

where

$r_f$ =distance b/w charges

$q_c$ =nucleus charge $=6(1.6*10^-^1^9C)$

$K$ =constant

$q_p$ =proton charge

Generally kinetic energy is know as

$K=\frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Therefore

$U_2 = \frac{Kq_pq_c}{r_2} + K_2=\frac{1}{2} mv_1^2 +U_1$

Generally equation for radius is $d/2$

Mathematically solving for radius of nucleus

$R=(\frac{5.50}{2}) (\frac{1*10^-^1^5m}{1fm})$

$R=2.75*10^-^1^5m$

Generally we can easily solving mathematically substitute into v_1

$q_p$ $=6(1.6*10^-^1^9C)$

$K_1=9.0*10^9 N-m^2/C^2$

$U_1= 0$

$R=2.75*10^-^1^5m$

$K=2.30 MeV$

$m= 1.67*10^-^2^7kg$

$V_1= (\frac{2}{1.67*10^-^2^7kg})^1^/^2 (\frac{(9.0*10^9 N-m^2/C^2)*(6(1.6*10^-^1^9C)(1.6*10^-^1^9C)}{2.75*10^-^1^5m+2.30 MeV(\frac{1.6*10^-^1^3 J}{1 MeV}) }$

$V_1= 3.4*10^7m/s$

Therefore the proton must be fired out with a speed of $V_1= 3.4*10^7m/s$

A 5.0-kilogram sphere, starting from rest, falls freely 22 meters in 3.0 seconds near the surface of a planet. Compared to the a

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

C) one-half as great

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration of gravity in that planet, using the following kinematic equation:

$\Delta x=v_0t+\frac{gt^2}{2}$

In this case, the sphere starts from rest, so $v_0=0$ . Replacing the given values and solving for g':

$g'=\frac{2\Delta x}{t^2}\\g'=\frac{2(22m)}{(3s)^2}\\g'=4.89\frac{m}{s^2}$

The acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface is $g=9.8\frac{m}{s^2}$ . So, the acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet is approximately one-half of the acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface.
