Answer:
1.) 274.5v
2.) 206.8v
Explanation:
1.) Given that In one part of the lab activities, students connected a 2.50 µF capacitor to a 746 V power source, whilst connected a second 6.80 µF capacitor to a 562 V source.
The potential difference and charge across EACH capacitor will be
V = Voe
Where Vo = initial voltage
e = natural logarithm = 2.718
For the first capacitor 2.50 µF,
V = Vo × 2.718
746 = Vo × 2.718
Vo = 746/2.718
Vo = 274.5v
To calculate the charge, use the below formula.
Q = CV
Q = 2.5 × 10^-6 × 274.5
Q = 6.86 × 10^-4 C
For the second capacitor 6.80 µF
V = Voe
562 = Vo × 2.718
Vo = 562/2.718
Vo = 206.77v
The charge on it will be
Q = CV
Q = 6.8 × 10^-6 × 206.77
Q = 1.41 × 10^-3 C
B.) Using the formula V = Voe again
165 = Vo × 2.718
Vo = 165 /2.718
Vo = 60.71v
Q = C × 60.71
Q = C
The current will be 2 Ampere because voltage is directly proportional to the current.
Scientific evidence supports a new idea
A soap bar because the material of a carpet or sandpaper is more rough than a soapbar and thus has a higher coefficient of friction.
The box slows steadily until it stops.
Let us understand why this should be the case.
We know that the Tension Force in the rope is greater than Friction and hence is responsible for accelerating the box.
As soon as the rope breaks, the Tension Force becomes 0 and the box is left with only the Friction acting on it.
Since the friction takes over immediately, the box begins to slow down at a steady pace until it stops completely.
