Answer:

Rahul's weight

Explanation:

In fact, the force Rahul exerts on Earth corresponds to the force of gravity. But Rahul's weight is, in fact, the force of gravity exerted by the Earth on Rahul, and these two forces correspond to the action-reaction pair of Newton's third law, which states that the two forces are equal.

Using formulas, Rahul's weight is equal to

W=mg

where m is Rahul mass and g is the gravitational acceleration (g=9.81 m/s^2).

What is the time constant of a series circuit where the capacitor is 0.330μF and the resistor is 10Ω ?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

\tau=3.3*10^{-6}s

Explanation:

Take at look to the picture I attached you, using Kirchhoff's current law we get:

C*\frac{dV}{dt}+\frac{V}{R}=0

This is a separable first order differential equation, let's solve it step by step:

Express the equation this way:

\frac{dV}{V}=-\frac{1}{RC}dt

integrate both sides, the left side will be integrated from an initial voltage v to a final voltage V, and the right side from an initial time 0 to a final time t:

\int\limits^V_v {\frac{dV}{V} } =-\int\limits^t_0 {\frac{1}{RC} } \, dt

Evaluating the integrals:

ln(\frac{V}{v})=e^{\frac{-t}{RC} }

natural logarithm to both sides in order to isolate V:

V(t)=ve^{-\frac{t}{RC} }

Where the term RC is called time constant and is given by:

\tau=R*C=10*(0.330*10^{-6})=3.3*10^{-6}s

Why do objects repel and attract?
Anarel [89]
Objects repel and attract because of a thing called electrostatic attraction. When objects have the same charge (positive or negative), then they will repel, and if they have opposite charges then they will attract
