A 4.00 µf capacitor is connected to a 12.0 v battery.

atroni [7]

(a) The capacitance of the capacitor is:
$C=4 \mu F=4 \cdot 10^{-6}F$
and the voltage applied across its plates is
$V=12.0 V$

The relationship between the charge Q on each plate of the capacitor, the capacitance and the voltage is:
$C= \frac{Q}{V}$
and re-arranging it we find the charge stored in the capacitor:
$Q=CV=(4 \cdot 10^{-6} F)(12.0 V)=4.8 \cdot 10^{-5} C$

(b) The electrical potential energy stored in a capacitor is given by
$U= \frac{1}{2}CV^2$
where C is the capacitance and V is the voltage. The new voltage is
$V=1.50 V$
so the energy stored in the capacitor is
$U= \frac{1}{2}(4 \cdot 10^{-6} F)(1.50 V)^2=4.5 \cdot 10^{-6} J$

A copper sphere was moving at 25 m/s when it hit another object. This caused all of the KE to be converted into thermal energy f

Verdich [7]

Answer:

$\Delta T = 0.81 ^oC$

Explanation:

As we know by energy conservation

All its kinetic energy will convert into thermal energy to raise its temperature

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = ms\Delta T$

now divide both sides by mass of the object

$\frac{1}{2}v^2 = s\Delta T$

so change in temperature is given as

$\Delta T = \frac{v^2}{2s}$

$\Delta T = \frac{25^2}{2\times 387}$

$\Delta T = 0.81^oC$

lakkis [162]

Answer:

A- series B- parallel

Explanation:

In order to measure current in a circuit, the multi-meter needs to be placed in series with the circuit while when measuring voltage, the multi-meter needs to be placed in parallel with the circuit.

It should be however noted that the same current flows in a series connected circuit and same voltage flows through loads connected in parallel. The ammeter is placed in series with the load to ensure that same value of currents is flowing in both the ammeter and loads(since same current flows in series connected circuit elements and all the amount of voltage must be made to appear on the load for the current to be measured accurately.

Voltmeter is connected in parallel to the load due to high value of current possessed by the voltmeter. The parallel connection will cause the current flowing through the voltmeter to reduce to zero so that it won't have effect (increase) on the amount of current initially on the resistor thereby measuring the exact amount of voltage on the load.

a plane is flying due east in still air at 395 km/h. suddenly, the plane is hit by wind blowing at 55km/h toward the west. what

Sphinxa [80]

Let's be clear: The plane's "395 km/hr" is speed relative to the
air, and the wind's "55 km/hr" is speed relative to the ground.

Before the wind hits, the plane moves east at 395 km/hr relative
to both the air AND the ground.

After the wind hits, the plane still maintains the same air-speed.
That is, its velocity relative to the air is still 395 km/hr east.
But the wind vector is added to the air-speed vector, and the
plane's velocity <span>relative to the ground drops to 340 km/hr east</span>.
