An initially uncharged 3.47-μF capacitor and a 6.43-kΩ resistor are connected in series to a 1.50-V battery that has negligible
harkovskaia [24]

Answer: a) io=233.28 A ( initial current); b) τ=R*C= 22.31 ms; c) 81.7 ms

Explanation:  In order to explain this problem we have to use, the formule for the variation of the current in a RC circuit:

I(t)=io*Exp(-t/τ)

and also we consider that io=V/R=(1.5/6.43*10^3)

=233.28 A

then the time constant for the RC circuit is τ=R*C=6.43*10^3*3.47*10^-6

=22.31 ms

Finally the time to reduce the current to 2.57% of its initial value is obtained from:

I(t)=io*Exp(-t/τ)  for I(t)/io=0.0257=Exp(-t/τ) then

ln(0.0257)*τ =-t

t=-ln(0.0257)*τ=81.68 ms

At standard temperature and pressure, carbon dioxide has a density of 1.98 kg/m3. What volume does 1.70 kg of carbon dioxide occ
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

<h2>volume= 0.85m^3</h2>

Explanation:

<em>The density of a substance is defined as the mass per unit volume of the substance, the unit is in kg/m^3 and it is represented by the greek letter rho</em>

Step one:

given data

we are told that the density  of Co2=  1.98 kg/m3

and the mass of Co2 is= 1.70 kg

we know the relation between mass, volume and density is

density=mass/volume

make volume subject of formula we have

volume=mass/density

substitute we have

volume=1.7/1.98\\\\volume= 0.85m^3

Three identical train cars, coupled together, are rolling east at 1.8 m/s . A fourth car traveling east at 4.5 m/s catches up wi
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

v = 1.98\ m/s

Explanation:

consider the mass of each train car be m

m₁ = m₂ = m₃ = m

speed of the three identical train

u₁ = u₂ = u₃ = 1.8 m/s

m₄ = m             u₄ = 4.5 m/s

m₅ = m              u₅ = 0 (initial velocity )

final velocity

v₁ = v₂ = v₃ = v₄ = v₅ = v

using conservation of momentum

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ + m₃u₃ + m₄u₄ + m₅u₅ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ + m₃v₃ + m₄v₄ + m₅v₅

m (1.8 + 1.8 + 1.8 +4.5) = 5 m v

v = \dfrac{9.9}{5}

v = 1.98\ m/s

You hang a heavy ball with a mass of 10 kg from a gold wire 2.6 m long that is 1.6 mm in diameter. You measure the stretch of th
PolarNik [594]

<u>Answer:</u> The Young's modulus for the wire is 6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2

<u>Explanation:</u>

Young's Modulus is defined as the ratio of stress acting on a substance to the amount of strain produced.

The equation representing Young's Modulus is:

Y=\frac{F/A}{\Delta l/l}=\frac{Fl}{A\Delta l}

where,

Y = Young's Modulus

F = force exerted by the weight  = m\times g

m = mass of the ball = 10 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s^2

l = length of wire  = 2.6 m

A = area of cross section  = \pi r^2

r = radius of the wire = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{1.6mm}{2}=0.8mm=8\times 10^{-4}m      (Conversion factor:  1 m = 1000 mm)

\Delta l = change in length  = 1.99 mm = 1.99\times 10^{-3}m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Y=\frac{10\times 9.81\times 2.6}{(3.14\times (8\times 10^{-4})^2)\times 1.99\times 10^{-3}}\\\\Y=6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2

Hence, the Young's modulus for the wire is 6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2
