Answer:

The cumulative energy contained in both capacitors amounts to 0.0018J

Explanation:

The formula used for determining the total energy between two capacitors is 1/2CV²

Energy stored in the First Capacitor = 1/2 × 25× 10⁻⁶f × (120)²

Energy stored equals 0.0015J

Energy stored in the second Capacitor = 1/2 × 5× 10⁻⁶f × (120)²

Energy stored equals 0.0003J

Total Energy stored equals the energy stored in Capacitor 1 plus the energy in Capacitor 2

= 0.0015J + 0.0003J

= 0.0018J

The energy held in a capacitor can be calculated using
U= \frac{1}{2} CV^2
, where C represents capacitance and V denotes the voltage applied across the capacitor.

We will compute the energy for the first capacitor:
U_1 = \frac{1}{2} (25\cdot 10^{-6}F)(120 V)=1.5 \cdot 10^{-3}J

Next, let's find the energy for the second capacitor:
U_2 = \frac{1}{2} (5 \cdot 10^{-6}F)(120 V)=3 \cdot 10^{-4}J

Thus, the combined energy stored in both capacitors amounts to
U=U_1 +U_2 = 1.8 \cdot 10^{-3}J

Wire A has the same length and twice the radius of wire B. Both wires are made of the same material and carry the same current.
serg [3582]

Answer:

V_A= \frac{I_A}{n_A e A_A}= \frac{I}{ne 4A_B}= \frac{1}{4} \frac{I}{neA_B}

V_B= \frac{I_B}{n_B e A_B}= \frac{I}{ne A_B}

Consequently, we find that:

V_A = \frac{1}{4} V_B

Thus, the most suitable answer would be:

a. vA = vB/4

Explanation:

In this situation, we can establish the following conditions:

L_A = L_B =L both wires share the same length

both wires carry an identical currentI_A = I_B =I

Both wires are constructed of the same material, indicating that the electron density (n) remains constant across both wires

n_A = n_B =n

We also know that r_A = 2 r_B where r signifies the radius.

Given that wires are cylindrical in shape, we can determine the area for each case:

A_A= \pi r^2_A = \pi (2r_B)^2 = 4 \pi r^2_B= 4 A_B

A_B = \pi r^2_B

Thus, we conclude that

A_A = 4 A_B

Now we are aware that the drift velocity of an electron in a wire can be described by:

v_d = \frac{I}{neA}

Where I denotes the current, n is the electron density, e represents the electron charge, and A signifies the area.

By substituting, we arrive at:

V_A= \frac{I_A}{n_A e A_A}= \frac{I}{ne 4A_B}= \frac{1}{4} \frac{I}{neA_B}

V_B= \frac{I_B}{n_B e A_B}= \frac{I}{ne A_B}

So we observe that:

V_A = \frac{1}{4} V_B

Thus, the most fitting answer is:

a. vA = vB/4

The energy difference between the 5d and the 6s sublevels in gold accounts for its color. If this energy difference is about 2.7
Yuliya22 [3333]
The light's wavelength absorbed during the transition is 459 nm. Energy difference between the 5-d and the 6-s sub-levels in gold is expressed as ΔE. Let the wavelength associated with the electron's transition from the 5-d to the 6-s state be λ. The relationship that describes the connection between energy and wavelength is defined as: E = hc/λ, where E stands for photon energy, h represents Planck's constant, c is the speed of light, and λ denotes the wavelength of the photon. Therefore, the absorption wavelength in this transition stands at 459 nm.

A person shooting at a target from a distance of 450 metres finds that the sound of the bullet hitting the target comes 1 / 2 se
Sav [3153]

Answer:

1350 m/s

Clarification:

Bullet speed

The bullet travels 450 m

Sound travels a distance of 450 m

Using the equation S= V × t

==> t= S/V

Thus, the time for the bullet t1=450/vb

and the sound's travel time t2=450/vs

Given that there's a 1/2 sec interval from when the shot is fired to the moment the shooter hears the sound

==>  t1+t2= 1/2 sec

==> 450/vb+450/vs=0.5sec  ---- (1)

At a distance 'x' from both the gun and target, it takes 3 seconds for a person to hear the bullet sound from firing to impact.

Firing sound duration

n

Distance =x m

Speed of sound = V

time =T1

==> T1 = x/vs

During this time period, the bullet covers 450 m and the sound of impact travels a distance 'x'

The time taken for sound = 450/vb

The time it takes sound to travel distance 'x'= x/vs

therefore let T2= 450/vb + x/vs

However, all this occurs within 3 seconds, i.e., T = 3 sec

because firing takes place before hitting the target, implying the strike sound is heard in time T = T2-T1= 450/vb + x/vs -x/vs

Making T= 3sec

==> 3= 450/vb

==> vb= 1350 m/s

From equations 1 and 2

applying the same principle, in 3 seconds the observer sees the bullet travel 450 m and perceives the sound
