Answer:

C.) To indicate different versions of the same variable.

Explanation:

Variables in physics often include a subscript. These subscripts are used for indicating different versions of the same variable in physics.

Basically, subscripts are used to represent the beginning (initial) and ending (final) position or point of a variable in physics.

For example, we would look at Gay Lussac' Law of gases.

Gay Lussac law states that when the volume of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Gay Lussac's law is given by;

PT = K

\frac{P1}{T1} = \frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}

Where;

T_{1} represents the initial temperature.

T_{2} represents the initial temperature.

P_{1} represents the initial pressure.

P_{2} represents the initial pressure.

Note: 1 and 2 are the subscript while T and P are the variables.

Capacitor C1 is initially charged to V1 and capacitor C2 is initially charged to V2. The capacitors are then connected to each o
o-na [289]

Answer:

<em>20.08 Volts</em>

Explanation:

<u>Parallel Connection of Capacitors</u>

The voltage across any two elements connected in parallel is the same. If the elements are capacitors, then each voltage is

\displaystyle V_1=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}

\displaystyle V_2=\frac{Q_2}{C_2}

They are both the same after connecting them, thus

\displaystyle \frac{Q_2}{C_2}=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}

Or, equivalently

\displaystyle Q_2=\frac{C_2Q_1}{C_1}

The total charge of both capacitors is

\displaystyle Q_t=Q_1\left(1+\frac{C_2}{C_1}\right)

We can compute the total charge by using the initial conditions where both capacitors were disconnected:

Q_t=V_{10}C_1+V_{20}C_2=25\cdot 24+13\cdot 11=743\ \mu C

Now we compute Q1 from the equation above

\displaystyle Q_1=\frac{Q_t}{\left(1+\frac{C_2}{C_1}\right)}=\frac{743}{\left(1+\frac{13}{24}\right)}=481.95\ \mu C

The final voltage of any of the capacitors is

\displaystyle V_1=V_2=\frac{481.95}{24}=20.08\ V

vazorg [7]

I'm trying to think of something that will give you the biggest bang for your buck, meaning what would give you the most number of energy transformations in their use.

Wind energy uses those great big windmills that transform wind into electrical energy. The wind is caused by the sun (which has nuclear energy, light energy and the earth's rotation which is not related to the sun but is mechanical energy). To start with you use mechanical energy. That energy drives a generator that stores it's energy in a battery. You have changed electrical energy into chemical energy. The batteries, on a calm day take over and provide electrical energy that must be transported to the consumers using it. Proponents of wind energy say that it is pollution free. It's not exactly true. The batteries used have to be manufactured (not a clean industry) and when they wear out, they pollute the environment if they cannot be recharged with new battery plates and acid (chemical).

Added to which wind energy is very noisy (sound energy) which has been linked to serious diseases.
