Answer:

Electrostatics is a branch of physics that studies electric charges at rest. Since classical physics, it has been known that some materials, such as amber, attract lightweight particles after rubbing. The Greek word for amber, or electron, was thus the source of the word 'electricity'.

What is the time constant of a series circuit where the capacitor is 0.330μF and the resistor is 10Ω ?

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

$\tau=3.3*10^{-6}s$

Explanation:

Take at look to the picture I attached you, using Kirchhoff's current law we get:

$C*\frac{dV}{dt}+\frac{V}{R}=0$

This is a separable first order differential equation, let's solve it step by step:

Express the equation this way:

$\frac{dV}{V}=-\frac{1}{RC}dt$

integrate both sides, the left side will be integrated from an initial voltage v to a final voltage V, and the right side from an initial time 0 to a final time t:

$\int\limits^V_v {\frac{dV}{V} } =-\int\limits^t_0 {\frac{1}{RC} } \, dt$

Evaluating the integrals:

$ln(\frac{V}{v})=e^{\frac{-t}{RC} }$

natural logarithm to both sides in order to isolate V:

$V(t)=ve^{-\frac{t}{RC} }$

Where the term RC is called time constant and is given by:

$\tau=R*C=10*(0.330*10^{-6})=3.3*10^{-6}s$

Answer:

Carbon dioxide and water

Explanation:

The products of complete combustion are always carbon dioxide and water.

The balanced reaction is:

Car a runs a red light and broadsides car b, which is stopped and waiting to make a left turn. car a has a mass of 1,800kg. car

frez [133]

The law of conservation of momentum tells us that momentum is conserved, therefore total initial momentum should be equal to total final momentum. In this case, we can expressed this mathematically as:

mA vA + mB vB = m v

where, m is the mass in kg, v is the velocity in m/s

since m is the total mass, m = mA + mB, we can write the equation as:

mA vA + mB vB = (mA + mB) v

furthermore, car B was at a stop signal therefore vB = 0, hence

mA vA + 0 = (mA + mB) v

1800 (vA) = (1800 + 1500) (7.1 m/s)

A firm current ratio is 1. 0 and its quick ratio is 1. 0. If current liabilities are 12300, what are its inventories?

Anna007 [38]

A firm current ratio is 1. 0 and its quick ratio is 1. 0. If current liabilities are 12300 then its inventories will be 12300

Inventory is the accounting of items, component parts and raw materials that a company either uses in production or sells

The quick and current ratios are liquidity ratios that help investors and analysts gauge a company's ability to meet its short-term obligations. The current ratio divides current assets by current liabilities. The quick ratio only considers highly-liquid assets or cash equivalents as part of current assets.

current ratio = current assets / current liabilities

current assets = current ratio * current liabilities

= 1 * 12300 = 12300

since , inventory is a current asset for accounting purpose , hence inventories will be 12300
