Ishani and John now try a problem involving a charging capacitor. An uncharged capacitor with C = 6.81 μF and a resistor with R
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Q=81.72\times10^{-6}C

I=2.1\times10^{-5}A

Explanation:

The maximum charge on the capacitor will be, at the end of the process, given by the formula (and for our values):

Q=CV=(6.81\times10^{-6}F)(12V)=81.72\times10^{-6}C

The maximum current on the resistor will be, at the beginning of the process, given by the formula (and for our values):

I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{12V}{5.8\times10^{5}\Omega}=2.1\times10^{-5}A

A stone is thrown vertically into the air at an initial velocity of 96 ft/s. On Mars, the height s (in feet) of the stone above
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

240 ft

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 96 ft/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = 12 m/s² on Mars 32 ft/s² on Earth negative due to upward direction

Mars

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=96\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times -12\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s=96t-6t^2\ ft

Earth

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=96\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times -32\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s=96t-16t^2\ ft

Differentiating the first equation with respect to time we get

\frac{ds}{dt}=96-12t

Equating with zero

0=96-12t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{96}{12}=8\ s

Differentiating the second equation with respect to time we get

\frac{ds}{dt}=96-32t

Equating with zero

0=96-32t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{96}{32}=3\ s

Applying the time taken to the above equations, we get

s=96t-6t^2\ ft\\\Rightarrow s=96\times 8-6\times 8^2\\\Rightarrow s=384

s=96t-16t^2\\\Rightarrow s=96\times 3-16\times 3^2\\\Rightarrow s=144

Difference in height = 384-144 = 240 ft

The stone will travel 240 ft higher on Mars

A charge +1.9 μC is placed at the center of the hollow spherical conductor with the inner radius 3.8 cm and outer radius 5.6 cm.
Archy [21]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to load balancing. We will begin by defining what charges are acting inside and which charges are placed outside.

PART A)

The charge of the conducting shell is distributed only on its external surface. The point charge induces a negative charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell:

Q_{int}=-Q1=-1.9*10^{-6} C. This is the total charge on the inner surface of the conducting shell.

PART B)

The positive charge (of the same value) on the external surface of the conducting shell is:

Q_{ext}=+Q_1=1.9*10^{-6} C

The driver's net load is distributed through its outer surface. When inducing the new load, the total external load will be given by,

Q_{ext, Total}=Q_2+Q_{ext}

Q_{ext, Total}=1.9+3.8

Q_{ext, Total}=5.7 \mu C

The longest wavelength within the visible spectrum is _______ light.
Goryan [66]
<span>The longest wavelength within the visible spectrum is the red light. The answer is letter C. It is called visible light because it is the only light that can be seen by the human eye. Red light is the longest wavelength around 620 to 750 nanometer. It is followed by orange which has a wavelength of 590 t 620 nanometer. And then blue which has a wavelength of 450 to 495 nanometer. And the shortest wavelength is violet which has a wavelength of 380 to 459 nanometer.  </span>
