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

Two heavy objects of masses 1 kg and 2 kg are moving towards each other under
SOVA2 [1]

The acceleration of the body in terms of the gravitational constant G is G.

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation;

F = Gm1m2/r^2

G = gravitational constant

m1 = mass of the first body

m2 = mass of the second body

r = distance between the two bodies

Substituting values to find the force on the two bodies;

F = G × 1  × 2/1^2

F = 2G

For the 2 Kg mass

F = ma

m = mass

a = acceleration

F = gravitational force

Hence,

2G = 2a

a = 2G/2

a = G

Answer:

v=38.73m/s

Explanation:

u=15m/s

v =?

s=65m

g=9.81

v²=u²+2×g×s

v²=15²+2×9.81×65=1500.3

v=38.73m/s
