Violet would refract the most as it has the shortest wavelength amongst the visible spectrum.

How much voltage (in terms of the power source voltage bV) will the capacitor have when it has started at zero volts potential d

Archy [21]

Answer:

The voltage is $V = 0.993V_b$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The time that has passed is $t = \frac{\tau}{2}$

Here $\tau$ is know as the time constant

The voltage of the power source is $V_b$

Generally the voltage equation for charging a capacitor is mathematically represented as

$V = V_b [1 - e^{- \frac{t}{\tau} }]$

=> $V = V_b [1 - e^{- \frac{\frac{\tau}{2}}{\tau} }]$

=> $V = V_b [1 - e^{- \frac{\tau}{2\tau} }]$

=> $V = V_b [1 - e^{- \frac{1}{2} }]$

=> $V = 0.993V_b$

Arigid body must rotate about an axis in order for it to have angular momentum about that axis. True False

kompoz [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Let's consider the definition of the angular momentum,

$\vec{L} = I \vec{\omega}$

where $I = \int\limits_m r^2 dm = \lim_{n \to \infty} \sum\limits_{i=1}^n m_i r_i^2$ is the moment of inertia for a rigid body. Now, this moment of inertia could change if we change the axis of rotation, because "r" is defined as the distance between the puntual mass and the nearest point on the axis of rotation, but still it's going to have some value. On the other hand,

$\vec{\omega} = \frac{\vec{r} \times \vec{v}}{r^2}$ so $\vec{\omega} \neq 0$ unless $\vec{r}$ ║ $\vec{v}$ .

In conclusion, a rigid body could rotate about certain axis, generating an angular momentum, but if you choose another axis, there could be some parts of the rigid body rotating around the new axis, especially if there is a projection of the old axis in the new one.

NO LINKS PLEASE. brainly to the best answer.

Sauron [17]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is energy possessed by a body by virtue of its movement. Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or state. While kinetic energy of an object is relative to the state of other objects in its environment, potential energy is completely independent of its environment.

Both energies are related to motion.

Water flowing from a waterfall before it hits the pond below?

anastassius [24]

Answer:

Kinetic Energy

Explanation:

Ang prinsipyo ay nagsasaad na ang enerhiya ay hindi maaaring malikha o masira, ngunit maaari lamang ma-convert mula sa isang anyo patungo sa isa pa. Ang tubig sa tuktok ng napakataas na talon ay nagtataglay ng gravitational potential energy. Habang bumabagsak ang tubig, ang enerhiya na ito ay na-convert sa kinetic energy, na nagreresulta sa isang daloy sa isang mataas na bilis.
