Explanation:

Given that,

The voltages across them are 40,50 and 60 volts respectively, and the charge on each condenser is 6×10⁻⁸ C.

(a) Capacitance of capacitor 1,

C_1=\dfrac{Q}{V_1}\\\\C_1=\dfrac{6\times 10^{-8}}{40}\\\\C_1=1.5\times 10^{-9}\ F\\\\C_1=1.5\ nF

Capacitance of capacitor 2,

C_2=\dfrac{Q}{V_2}\\\\C_2=\dfrac{6\times 10^{-8}}{50}\\\\C_2=1.2\times 10^{-9}\ F\\\\C_2=1.2\ nF

Capacitance of capacitor 3,

C_3=\dfrac{Q}{V_3}\\\\C_3=\dfrac{6\times 10^{-8}}{60}\\\\C_3=1\times 10^{-9}\ F\\\\C_3=1\ nF

(b) The equivalent capacitance in series combination is :

\dfrac{1}{C}=\dfrac{1}{C_1}+\dfrac{1}{C_2}+\dfrac{1}{C_3}\\\\\dfrac{1}{C}=\dfrac{1}{1.5}+\dfrac{1}{1.2}+\dfrac{1}{1}\\\\C=0.4\ nF

Hence, this is the required solution.

Two different wave groups with the same height travel together in the same direction. The wavelength of one group is twice as lo
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

A combined wave of extra height will produce every other wave.

Explanation:

One wave Crest can catch up to another wave Crest if the group of waves are from different places.

Here the two group of waves have different wavelength but travelling together in the same direction so when they combine,they will produce every other wave.

A uniform meterstick of mass 0.20 kg is pivoted at the 40 cm mark. where should one hang a mass of 0.50 kg to balance the stick?
Tcecarenko [31]
The weight of the meterstick is:
W=mg=0.20 kg \cdot 9.81 m/s^2 = 1.97 N
and this weight is applied at the center of mass of the meterstick, so at x=0.50 m, therefore at a distance 
d_1 = 0.50 m - 0.40 m=0.10 m
from the pivot.
The torque generated by the weight of the meterstick around the pivot is:
M_w = W d_1 = (1.97 N)(0.10 m)=0.20 Nm

To keep the system in equilibrium, the mass of 0.50 kg must generate an equal torque with opposite direction of rotation, so it must be located at a distance d2 somewhere between x=0 and x=0.40 m. The magnitude of the torque should be the same, 0.20 Nm, and so we have:
(mg) d_2 = 0.20 Nm
from which we find the value of d2:
d_2 =  \frac{0.20 Nm}{mg}= \frac{0.20 Nm}{(0.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)}=0.04 m

So, the mass should be put at x=-0.04 m from the pivot, therefore at the x=36 cm mark.

A scientist heats flexible container full of neon gas .what will most likely happen to the container as the gas absorbs heat
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
As the container starts to heat up, so will the neon gas. Heat is nothing but energy, and when you add energy to a gas, it will start vibrating much faster and hit the edges of the container at a higher rate and a faster velocity. Therefore, it's possible to deduce that the container will most likely rupture and/or "explode".
