A 12.4-碌F capacitor is connected through a 0.895-M鈩 resistor to a constant potential difference of 60.0 V. (a) Compute the charge on the capacitor at the following times after the connections are made: 0, 5.0 s, 10.0 s, 20.0 s, and 100.0 s. (b) Compute the charging currents at the same instants. (c) Graph the results of parts (a) and (b) for t between 0 and 20 s
Batteries are always labeled with their emf; for instances an AA flashlight battery is labelled 鈥 1.5 V 鈥. Would it also be appropriate to put a label on batteries starting how much current they provide? Why or why not?
Small aircraft often have 24 V electrical systems rather than the 12 V systems in automobiles, even though the electrical power requirements are roughly the same in both applications. The explanation given by aircraft designers is that a 24 V system weighs less than a 12 V system because thinner wires can be used. Explain why this is so.
Two coils are wound around the same cylindrical form. When the current in the first coil is decreasing at a rate of , the induced emf in the second coil has magnitude . (a) What is the mutual inductance of the pair of coils? (b) If the second coil has 25 turns, what is the flux through each turn when the current in the first coil equals ? (c) If the current in the second coil increases at a rate of , what is the magnitude of the induced emf in the first coil?
In an L-R-C series circuit, what criteria could be used to decide whether the system is over damped or underdamped? For example, could we compare the maximum energy stored during one cycle to the energy dissipated during one cycle? Explain.
