Answer:

For a body moving at a uniform velocity you can calculate the speed by dividing the distance traveled by the amount of time it took, for example one mile in 1/2 hour would give you 2 miles per hour. If the velocity is non-uniform all you can say is what the average speed is.

A parallel-plate air capacitor with a capacitance of 260 pF has a charge of magnitude 0.155 μC on each plate. The plates have a
butalik [34]

Answer:

The potential difference between the plates is 596.2 volts.

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitance C=260\ pF

Charge q=0.155\ \mu\ C

Separation of plates = 0.313 mm

We need to calculate the potential difference between the plates

Using formula of potential difference

V= \dfrac{Q}{C}

Where, Q = charge

C = capacitance

Put the value into the formula

V=\dfrac{0.155\times10^{-6}}{260\times10^{-12}}

V=596.2\ volts

Hence,The potential difference between the plates is 596.2 volts.

The capacitor can withstand a peak voltage of 590 volts. If the voltage source operates at the resonance frequency, what maximum
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The maximum voltage is 41.92 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Peak voltage = 590 volts

Suppose in an L-R-C series circuit, the resistance is 400 ohms, the inductance is 0.380 Henry, and the capacitance is 1.20×10^{-2}\ \mu F.

We need to calculate the resonance frequency

Using formula of frequency

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}}

Put the value into the formula

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{0.380\times1.20\times10^{-8}}}

f=2356.88\ Hz

We need to calculate the maximum current

Using formula of current

I=\dfrac{V_{c}}{X_{c}}

I=2\pi\times f\times C\times V_{c}

I=2\pi\times2356.88\times1.20\times10^{-8}\times590

I=0.1048\ A

Impedance of the circuit is

z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_{L}^2-X_{C}^2)}

At resonance frequency X_{L}=X_{C}

Z=R

We need to calculate the maximum voltage

Using ohm's law

V=I\times R

V=0.1048\times400

V=41.92\ V

Hence, The maximum voltage is 41.92 V.

A confined aquifer with a porosity of 0.15 is 30 m thick. The potentiometric surface elevation at two observation wells 1000 m a
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Part (a) The flow rate per unit width of the aquifer is 1.0875 m³/day

Part (b) The specific discharge of the flow is 0.0363 m/day

Part (c) The average linear velocity of the flow is 0.242 m/day

Part (d) The time taken for a tracer to travel the distance between the observation wells is 4132.23 days = 99173.52 hours

Explanation:

Part (a) the flow rate per unit width of the aquifer

From Darcy's law;

q = -Kb\frac{dh}{dl}

where;

q is the flow rate

K is the permeability or conductivity of the aquifer = 25  m/day

b is the aquifer thickness

dh is the change in th vertical hight = 50.9m - 52.35m = -1.45 m

dl is the change in the horizontal hight = 1000 m

q = -(25*30)*(-1.45/1000)

q = 1.0875 m³/day

Part (b) the specific discharge of the flow

V = \frac{Q}{A} = \frac{q}{b} = -K\frac{dh}{dl}\\\\V = -(25 m/d).(\frac{-1.45 m}{1000 m}) = 0.0363 m/day

V = 0.0363 m/day

Part (c) the average linear velocity of the flow assuming steady unidirectional flow

Va = V/Φ

Φ is the porosity = 0.15

Va = 0.0363 / 0.15

Va = 0.242 m/day

Part (d) the time taken for a tracer to travel the distance between the observation wells

The distance between the two wells = 1000 m

average linear velocity = 0.242 m/day

Time = distance / speed

Time = (1000 m) / (0.242 m/day)

Time = 4132.23 days

        = 4132.23 days *\frac{24 .hrs}{1.day} = 99173.52, hours
