Electronic flash units for camera contain a capacitor for storing the energy used to produce the flash. In one such unit, the fl

ash lasts for 1675s with an average light power output of 2.70 x 105 W . (a) If the conversion of electric energy to light is 95% efficient ( the rest of the energy goes to thermal energy), how much energy must be stored in the capacitor for one flash

Answer:

420J

Explanation:

Power is the time rate of change in energy. Power is the ratio of energy to time. The S.I unit of power is in watts.

Given that the flash lasts for 1/675 s, power output is 2.7 * 10⁵ W. Hence:

Power = Energy / time

Substituting:

2.7 * 10⁵ W = Energy / (1/675)

Energy = 2.7 * 10⁵ W * 1/675 = 400J

Therefore the energy emitted as light is 400J.

Since the conversion of electric energy to light is 95% efficient, hence the energy stored as electrical energy is:

Energy(capacitor) = 5% of 400J + 400J = 0.05*400 + 400

Energy(capacitor) = 420J

Which element has atoms with valence electrons in a higher energy level than those of calcium (Ca)?
enyata [817]

Here, we are required to determine which element has atoms with Valence electrons in a higher energy level than those of calcium.

The Valence electrons of the Caesium, Cs atoms has higher energy level than those of Calcium.

First, we need to determine the electronic configuration of each of the elements

  • Therefore the Calcium electron configuration will be:
  • 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²

  • Therefore, for Cs Electron Configuration:
  • 1s² 2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰ 4s²4p⁶4d¹⁰ 5s²5p⁶ 6s¹
  • Therefore, For lithium, The electron configuration of lithium is :
  • 1s²2s¹

  • For oxygen, Therefore the O electron configuration will be:
  • 1s²2s²2p⁴

  • For bromine, the electronic configuration is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁵

Among the elements in the option, the Valence electrons of the Caesium, Cs atoms has higher energy level than those of Calcium.

This is so because the only Valence electron of Cs is located in the 6s orbital and as such has the highest energy level amongst all of the elements.

No they don't.  Incident rays parallel to the axis of a concave mirror
reflect from the mirror's surface and converge at its focal point.

Winds blowing toward the east are called easterlies.<br><br><br> True or False
eimsori [14]

Answer: False

Explanation:

Winds are named for the cardinal direction they blow from.  Hence, a wind that <em>"blows towards the east"</em>, logically should <u>come from the west </u>and is called a <em>"west wind"</em>.

In thise sense, one of the best examples of this type of wind are the <em>Westerlies</em>, which are are prevailing winds that blow from the west at midlatitudes and have the characteristic that are stronger during winter and weaker during summer.

Therefore, the statement is false.

Boyle's Law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure P and volume V satisfy the eq
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min

Explanation:

Given;

Boyle's law,  PV = C

where;

P is pressure of the gas

V is volume of the gas

C is constant

Differentiate this equation using product rule:

V\frac{dp}{dt} +P\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{d(C)}{dt}

Given;

\frac{dP}{dt} (increasing pressure rate of the gas) = 40 kPa/min

V (volume of the gas) =  600 cm³

P (pressure of the gas) = 150 kPa

Substitute in these values in the differential equation above and calculate the rate at which the volume is decreasing ( \frac{dv}{dt});

(600 x 40) + (150 x \frac{dv}{dt}) = 0

\frac{dv}{dt} = -\frac{(600*40)}{150} = -160 \ cm^3/min

Therefore, the volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min
