Rami uses a disposable camera that has a flash. When he wants to take a picture, he holds a button and hears a rising whining so

und. When a small light glows, the flash is ready. He presses the shutter button, the flash lights up, and he takes his picture.
Which statement best describes how a capacitor is useful in the camera?

It protects the circuits from a burst of energy by storing charge.
It protects the circuits from a steady current by storing charge.
It stores energy and delivers it in a short burst.
It stores energy and delivers it in a steady current.

<span>It stores energy and delivers it in a short burst.

The whirring sound is produced by the charging of the capacitor. A capacitor is an electrical component which is capable of storing charge. When the capacitor stores charge, it is storing energy. After doing so, the capacitor releases the electrical energy that it had stored as light energy, which is seen as the flash of the camera. It must do so in a burst, because the intensity of the flash is very high and would require a high amount of energy to maintain.

A 15kg projectile is moving with a velocity of 25m/s calculate its momentum
aliina [53]

The momentum of an object is given by:

p = mv

m is the object's mass and v is its velocity.

Given values:

m = 15kg

v = 25m/s

Plug in the values and solve for p:

p = 15*25

p = 375kg×m/s

Future space rockets might propel themselves by firing laser beams, rather than exhaust gases, out the back. The acceleration wo
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Acceleration = 0.0282 m/s^2

Distance = 13.98 * 10^12 m

Explanation:

we will apply the energy theorem

work done = ΔK.E ( change in Kinetic energy )  ---- ( 1 )

<em>where :</em>

work done = p * t

                  = 15 * 10^6 watts * ( 1 year ) = 473040000 * 10^6 J

( note : convert 1 year to seconds )

and ΔK.E = 1/2 mVf^2   given ; m = 1200 kg  and initial V = 0

<u>back to equation 1 </u>

473040000 * 10^6  = 1/2 mv^2

Vf^2 = 2(473040000 * 10^6 ) / 1200

∴ Vf = 887918.92 m/s

<u>i) Determine how fast the rocket is ( acceleration of the rocket )</u>

a = Vf / t

  = 887918.92 / ( 1 year )

  = 0.0282 m/s^2

<u>ii) determine distance travelled by rocket </u>

Vf^2 - Vi^2 = 2as

Vi = 0

hence ; Vf^2 = 2as

s ( distance ) =  Vf^2 / ( 2a )

                     = ( 887918.92 )^2 / ( 2 * 0.0282 )

                    = 13.98 * 10^12 m
