If c1=c2=4.00μf and c4=8.00μf, what must the capacitance c3 be if the network is to store 2.70×10−3 j of electrical energy?
Akimi4 [234]
Missing detail in the text: total voltage of the circuit \Delta V = 46.0 V
Missing figure: https://www.physicsforums.com/attachments/prob-24-68-jpg.190851/

Solution:

1) The energy stored in a circuit of capacitors is given by
U= \frac{1}{2} C_{eq} (\Delta V)^2
where C_{eq} is the equivalent capacitance of the circuit. We can find the value for C_{eq} by using \Delta V=46.0 V and the energy of the system, U=2.7\cdot 10^{-3} J
C_{eq}= \frac{2U}{(\Delta V)^2}=2.55\cdot 10^{-6} F=2.55\mu F

2) Then, let's calculate the equivalente capacitance of C1 and C2. The two capacitors are in series, so their equivalente capacitance is given by
\frac{1}{C_{12}}= \frac{1}{C_1}+ \frac{1}{C_2}= \frac{1}{4 \mu F} + \frac{1}{4 \mu F}
from which we find C_{12}=2 \mu F

3) Then let's find C_{123}, the equivalent capacitance of C_{12} and C3. C_{123} is in series with C4, therefore we can write
\frac{1}{C_{eq}}= \frac{1}{C_{123}}+ \frac{1}{C_4}
Since we already know C_4=8 \mu F and C_{eq}=2.55 \mu F, we find
C_{123}=3.70 \mu F

4) Finally, we can find C_{3}, because it is in parallel with C_{12}, and the equivalent capacitance of the two must be equal to C_{123}:
C_{123}=C_{12}+C_3
So, using C_{123}=3.70 \mu F and C_{12}=2 \mu F, we find
C_3=1.70 \mu F

Shows an object suspended from two ropes. The weight of the object is 360 N. The magnitude of the tension
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Tension T in each rope will be 254.56 N.

Explanation:

From the picture attached,

Weight suspended by the two ropes will be supported by the vertical components of the tension in the ropes.

Vertical components of both the ropes = Tsin(45)° + Tsin(45)°

                                                                 = 2Tsin(45)°

                                                                 = 2T(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})

                                                                 = T\sqrt{2}

Since, T\sqrt{2}=360

T = \frac{360}{\sqrt{2} }

T = 254.56 N

Therefore, tension T in each rope will be 254.56 N.

Choose the correct statement of Kirchhoff's voltage law.
frutty [35]

Answer:

A) If one travels around a closed path adding the voltages for which one enters the negative reference and subtracting the voltages for which one enters the positive reference, the total is zero.

Explanation:

Kirchhoff's voltage law deals with the conservation of energy when the current flows in a closed-loop path.

It states that the algebraic sum of the voltages around any closed loop in a circuit is always zero.

In other words, the algebraic sum of all the potential differences through a loop must be equal to zero.

Question 5 At 12:00 pm, a spaceship is at position ⎡⎣324⎤⎦ km ⎣ ⎢ ⎡ ​ 3 2 4 ​ ⎦ ⎥ ⎤ ​ km away from the origin with respect to so
Anettt [7]

Answer:

[1, 6, -2]

Explanation:

Given the following :

Initial Position of spaceship : [3 2 4] km

Velocity of spaceship : [-1 2 - 3] km/hr

Location of ship after two hours have passed :

Distance moved by spaceship :

Velocity × time

[-1 2 -3] × 2 = [-2 4 -6]

Location of ship after two hours :

Initial position + distance moved

[3 2 4] + [-2 4 -6] = [3 + (-2)], [2 + 4], [4 + (-6)]

= [3-2, 2+4, 4-6] = [1, 6, -2]

A cat is sleeping on the floor in the middle of a 3.0-m-wide room when a barking dog enters with a speed of 1.50 m/s. as the dog
kondor19780726 [428]
Good morning.


Lets make the movement function for the dog and cat.

The cat has a start position of1.5 m(the middle of the room), with an initial speed of 0 and acceleration of 0.85 m/s².

The dog has a start position of 0, an initial speed of 1.5 m/s and acceleration of -0.1 m/s².


<u>Cat:</u>

\mathsf{X = X_0+V_0t + \dfrac{at^2}{2}}\\ \\ \mathsf{X = 1.5 + \dfrac{0.85t^2}{2}}\\ \\ \\ \mathsf{X_c = 1.5 + 0.425t^2}

<u>Dog:</u>

\mathsf{X_d= 1.5t - 0.05t^2}


Let's see if the dog reach the cat. Physically, it means \mathsf{X_d = X_c}

\mathsf{1.5t - 0.05t^2 = 1.5 + 0.425t^2}\\ \\ \mathsf{0.425t^2 + 0.05t^2 - 1.5t + 1.5 = 0}\\ \\ \mathsf{0.475t^2 - 1.5t + 1.5=0}

Now we solve for <em>t</em>:

\mathsf{\Delta = (-1.5)^2 - 4\cdot0.475\cdot1.5}\\ \\ \mathsf{\Delta = 2.25-2.85=-0.6 \ \textless \  0}

We have a negative Delta. Therefore, there is no instant t when the dog reaches the cat.
