A circuit contains an EMF source, a resistor R, a capacitor C, and an open switch in series. The capacitor initially carries zer
Flura [38]

Answer:

t = 1.098*RC

Explanation:

In order to calculate the time that the capacitor takes to reach 2/3 of its maximum charge, you use the following formula for the charge of the capacitor:

Q=Q_{max}[1-e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}]         (1)

Qmax: maximum charge capacity of the capacitor

t: time

R: resistor of the circuit

C: capacitance of the circuit

When the capacitor has 2/3 of its maximum charge, you have that

Q=(2/3)Qmax    

You replace the previous expression for Q in the equation (1), and use properties of logarithms to solve for t:

Q=\frac{2}{3}Q_{max}=Q_{max}[1-e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}]\\\\\frac{2}{3}=1-e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}\\\\e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}=\frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{t}{RC}=ln(\frac{1}{3})\\\\t=-RCln(\frac{1}{3})=1.098RC

The charge in the capacitor reaches 2/3 of its maximum charge in a time equal to 1.098RC

Explain how this increases their efficiency. Explain how this increases their efficiency. Antireflective coating causes the phas
sweet [91]

Answer:

c) True. If the coating cancels the light requested by the reflection, so there is more energy to enter the cell and therefore its efficiency increases

Explanation:

This exercise asks to analyze the effect of the antireflective coating on the efficiency of solar cells.

Let's start by expressing the expression for the interference of two light beams taken at when

* the phase change introduced when passing from air to 180º film

* the wavelength change by the refractive index of the film ln = lo / n

therefore the expression for destructive interference is

            2 n t = m λ

where m is an integer

with these concepts we can analyze the different statements

a) False. Phase shift does not change the wavelength of light

b) False. The refractive index of the solar cell is not affected by the refractive index of the film since the two materials do not mix.

c) True. If the coating cancels the light requested by the reflection, so there is more energy to enter the cell and therefore its efficiency increases

d) false. In solar cells the incidence is almost normal, therefore the effect of refraction (separation of colors for different angles) is very small

A hydraulic system for a dentist's chair is designed to be able to lift 3,112 newtons. The surface area over which this force is
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

13.8 N

Explanation:

Pressure on the one end of the hydraulic system = Pressure on the other end

Pressure = Force / Area where Force is in Newton, area is in m²

so Force of one end (F1) / area of that end = force of the other end (F2) / area of that end

3112 / ( 707 /10000) in m² = F2 / ( 3.14 / 10000) in m²

cross multiply

44016.97 × 0.000314 = 13.82 N

what equastion do you use to solve Riders in a carnival ride stand with their backs against the wall of a circular room of diame
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

μsmín = 0.1

Explanation:

  • There are three external forces acting on the riders, two in the vertical direction that oppose each other, the force due to gravity (which we call weight) and the friction force.
  • This friction force has a maximum value, that can be written as follows:

       F_{frmax} = \mu_{s} *F_{n} (1)

       where  μs is the coefficient of static friction, and Fn is the normal force,

       perpendicular to the wall and aiming to the center of rotation.

  • This force is the only force acting in the horizontal direction, but, at the same time, is the force that keeps the riders rotating, which is the centripetal force.
  • This force has the following general expression:

       F_{c} =  m* \omega^{2} * r (2)

       where ω is the angular velocity of the riders, and r the distance to the

      center of rotation (the  radius of the circle), and m the mass of the

      riders.

      Since Fc is actually Fn, we can replace the right side of (2) in (1), as

      follows:

     F_{frmax} = m* \mu_{s} * \omega^{2} * r (3)

  • When the riders are on the verge of sliding down, this force must be equal to the weight Fg, so we can write the following equation:

       m* g = m* \mu_{smin} * \omega^{2} * r (4)

  • (The coefficient of static friction is the minimum possible, due to any value less than it would cause the riders to slide down)
  • Cancelling the masses on both sides of (4), we get:

       g = \mu_{smin} * \omega^{2} * r (5)

  • Prior to solve (5) we need to convert ω from rev/min to rad/sec, as follows:

      60 rev/min * \frac{2*\pi rad}{1 rev} *\frac{1min}{60 sec} =6.28 rad/sec (6)

  • Replacing by the givens in (5), we can solve for μsmín, as follows:

       \mu_{smin} = \frac{g}{\omega^{2} *r}  = \frac{9.8m/s2}{(6.28rad/sec)^{2} *2.5 m} =0.1 (7)

The Chernobyl reactor accident in what is now Ukraine was the worst nuclear disaster of all time. Fission products from the reac
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

The correct answer is "53.15 days".

Explanation:

Given that:

Half life of 131_{I},

T_{\frac{1}{2} }= 8 \ days

  • Let the initial activity be "R_o".
  • and, activity to time t be "R".

To find t when R will be "1%" of R_o, then

⇒ R=\frac{1}{100}R_o

As we know,

⇒ R=R_o e^{-\lambda t}

or,

∴ e^{\lambda t}=\frac{R_o}{R}

By putting the values, we get

        =\frac{R_o}{\frac{R}{100} }

        =100

We know that,

Decay constant, \lambda = \frac{ln2}{T_{\frac{1}{2} }}

hence,

⇒ \lambda t=ln100

     t=\frac{ln100}{\lambda}

        =\frac{ln100}{\frac{ln2}{8} }

        =53.15 \ days
