The initial kinetic energy of the boat and its rider is
After Sam stops it, the final kinetic energy of the boat+rider is
because its final velocity is zero.
For the law of conservation of energy, the work done by Sam is the variation of kinetic energy of the system:
where the negative sign is due to the fact that the force Sam is applying goes against the direction of motion of the boat.
you take a length of ordinary wire, make it into a big loop, and lay it between the poles of a powerful, permanent horseshoe magnet. Now if you connect the two ends of the wire to a battery, the wire will jump up briefly.When an electric current starts to creep along a wire, it creates a magnetic field all around it. If you place the wire near a permanent magnet, this temporary magnetic field interacts with the permanent magnet's field.
It is said to be concave
and convex is the one reflecting outward
<span>1) The differential equation that models the RC circuit is :
(d/dt)V_capacitor </span>+ (V_capacitor/RC) = (V_source/<span>RC)</span>
<span>Where the time constant of the circuit is defined by the product of R*C
Time constant = T = R*C = (</span>30.5 ohms) * (89.9-mf) = 2.742 s
2) C<span>harge of the capacitor 1.57 time constants
1.57*(2.742) = 4.3048 s
The solution of the differential equation is
</span>V_capac (t) = (V_capac(0) - V_capac(∞<span>))e ^(-t /T) + </span>V_capac(∞)
Since the capacitor is initially uncharged V_capac(0) = 0
And the maximun Voltage the capacitor will have in this configuration is the voltage of the battery V_capac(∞) = 9V
This means,
V_capac (t) = (-9V)e ^(-t /T) + 9V
The charge in a capacitor is defined as Q = C*V
Where C is the capacitance and V is the Voltage across
V_capac (4.3048 s) = (-9V)e ^(-4.3048 s /T) + 9V
V_capac (4.3048 s) = (-9V)e ^(-4.3048 s /2.742 s) + 9V
V_capac (4.3048 s) = (-9V)e ^(-4.3048 s /2.742 s) + 9V = -1.87V +9V
V_capac (4.3048 s) = 7.1275 V
Q (4.3048 s) = 89.9mF*(7.1275V) = 0.6407 C
3) The charge after a very long time refers to the maximum charge the capacitor will hold in this circuit. This occurs when the voltage accross its terminals is equal to the voltage of the battery = 9V
Q (∞) = 89.9mF*(9V) = 0.8091 C
