Answer:

  τ = 36 10⁻³ s

Explanation:

The charge of a circuit Rc is given by the expression

          q = q₀ (1 - e^{-t/  \tau })

          q / q₀ = 1 - e^{-t/  \tau }

in this exercise they indicate that

          q / q₀ = ½

for a time t = 25 10⁻³ s

we substitute

          ½ = 1 - e^{- 25 \ 10^{-3} /  \tau}

          e^{- 25 \ 10^{-3} /  \tau} =  1 -½

         - 25 10⁻³ /τ = ln 0.5

         -25 10⁻³ / ln 0.5 = τ

         τ = 36 10⁻³ s

a car with a mass of 1200 kilograms is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 20 meters per second. the centrip
qaws [65]
Well, first of all, a car moving around a circular curve is not moving
with uniform velocity.  The direction of motion is part of velocity, and
the direction is constantly changing on a curve.

The centripetal force that keeps an object moving in a circle is

         Force  =  (mass of the object) · (speed)² / (radius of the circle)

         F  =  m s² / r

We want to know the radius, to rearrange the formula to give us
the radius as a function of everything else.

                                          F     =  m s² / r

Multiply each side by 'r':       F· r  =  m · s²

Divide each side by 'F':            r  =  m · s² / F    

We know all the numbers on the right side,
so we can pluggum in:

                      r  =       m       ·        s²      /     F

                      r  =  (1200 kg) · (20 m/s)² / (6000 N) .

I'm pretty sure you can finish it up from here.

An electron in an atom's orbital shell, labeled X in the model below, released enough energy to move to a different orbital shel
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Lower energy shell which will be nearer to the nucleus.

Explanation:

When electron move from one energy level to another, an electron must gain or lose just the right amount of energy.

When atoms releases energy, electrons move into lower energy levels.  The electrons in the shells aways from the nucleus have more energy as compared to the electrons in the nearer shells.

Electrons with the lowest energy are found closest to the nucleus, where the attractive force of the positively charged nucleus is the greatest. Electrons that have higher energy are found further away

What is the weight of an object when the object has a mass of 22kg
Savatey [412]
Assuming the object is on earth the objects weight would be equal to its mass multiplied by the gravitational field constant

mass=22kg
g=9.80665N/kg

weight=(22 kg) (9.80665 N/kg)=215.7463N

generally g is rounded to be 10 N/kg so for any question where it asks the weight given the mass just multiply by 10 and that should suffice. In this case the answer would be 220 N
