Answer: 1.176×10^-3 s
Explanation: The time constant formulae for an RC circuit is given below as
t =RC
Where t = time constant , R = magnitude of resistance = 21 ohms , C = capacitance of capacitor = 56 uf = 56×10^-6 F
t = 56×10^-6 × 21
t = 1176×10^-6
t = 1.176×10^-3 s
Capacitors function is to store up electricity and release it when the current is flowing. When there is no current, Capacitors still have electricity stored in them and can be discharged accidentally if something conductive touches them.
One of the equations for force is: Force = mass × acceleration.
The force and mass are given and so:
F=15N
m=10kg
By plugging in these values we obtain:
So the acceleration is a=1.5m/s^2
