A supercapacitor is an electrical energy storage device. A supercapacitor, initially charged to 2.1 thousand millivolts, supplie

Answer:

the time taken t is 9.25 minutes

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

The initial charge on the supercapacitor = 2.1 × 10³ mV = 2.1 V

now, every minute, the charge lost is 9.9 %  

so we need to find the time for which the charge drops below 800 mV or 0.8 V

to get the time, we can use the formula for compound interest in basic mathematics;

A = P × ( (1 - r/100 )ⁿ

where A IS 0.8, P is 2.1, r is 9.9

so we substitute

0.8 = 2.1 × ( 1 - 0.099 )ⁿ

0.8/2.1 = 0.901ⁿ

0.901ⁿ = 0.381

n = 9.25 minutes

Therefore, the time taken t is 9.25 minutes

How do you solve for a net force
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Learning the formula.multiply mass accelebrations.the force(F)required to move an object of mass(M) with an acceleration (a) is given by the formula F = m x a.so, force = mass multiplied by accelebration.

There is a puncture in the inner tor of your bicycle. Give a method to detect the position of the puncture
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Explanation:

The first method to engage is to listen to where the sound of air in the inner Tor escaping originated and look to see if u can find it. You can then feel the escape air with your hand.

You can Put it inside a container of water and see the bubble and rotate the inner tube to pass all of it through the water

A baseball is thrown with an initial velocity of 45.4 m/s at an angle of 31.2 ∘ .
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

V (initial vertical velocity) = 45.4 sin 31.2 = 23.52 m/s

1/2 m V^2 = m g h      conservation of energy

h = V^2 / (2 g) = 23.52^2 / 19.6 = 28.2 m       max height

Check:

t = 28.2 / 9.8 = 2.88 sec    time to reach max height

h = 23.52 * 2.88 - 1/2 g 2.88^2 = 27.1 m

Which option lists a form of potential energy followed by a form of kinetic energy?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Magnetic energy and electromagnetic energy form of potential energy followed by a form of kinetic energy.

(B) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Lists a form of potential energy followed by a form of kinetic energy

We know that,

Sound energy :

The movement of energy through object it is called sound energy. When a object produced vibration by force then it moves in wave.

Sound wave is example of kinetic energy.

Nuclear energy :

The store energy in the nucleus of the atom it is called nuclear energy. This energy released when occurs fusion and fission.

Nuclear energy is the example of potential energy

Magnetic energy :

Magnetic energy is a type of potential energy which is depend on distance and position in the magnetic field.

Electromagnetic energy :

Electromagnetic energy is light energy. it is type of kinetic energy.

Gravitational energy :

Gravitational energy is a type of potential energy. It is an energy related with gravity or gravitational force.

Elastic energy :

The store energy in elastic object it is called elastic energy. This energy is a type of potential energy.

Electrical energy :

The movement of electrons is called electrical energy. When electrons move through a wire then it is are called electricity. Electrical energy is type of kinetic energy.

Hence, Magnetic energy and electromagnetic energy form of potential energy followed by a form of kinetic energy.

(B) is correct option.
