This instrument is called a spring scale.
Answer:
2C
Explanation:
The equivalent capacitance of a parallel combination of capacitors is the sum of their capacitance.
So, if the capacitance of each capacitor is half the previous one, we have a geometric series with first term = C and rate = 0.5.
Using the formula for the sum of the infinite terms of a geometric series, we have:
Sum = First term / (1 - rate)
Sum = C / (1 - 0.5)
Sum = C / 0.5 = 2C
So the equivalent capacitance of this parallel connection is 2C.
Karst is a topography formed from the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum. It is characterized by underground drainage systems with sinkholes and caves. It has also been documented for more weathering- resistant rocks, such as quartzite, given the right conditions.
Answer:
10.4 m/s
Explanation:
The problem can be solved by using the following SUVAT equation:
where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
t is the time
For the diver in the problem, we have:
is the initial velocity (positive because it is upward)
is the acceleration of gravity (negative because it is downward)
By substituting t = 1.7 s, we find the velocity when the diver reaches the water:
And the negative sign means that the direction is downward: so, the speed is 10.4 m/s.
