A) C_{eq} = 15 10⁻⁶ F, B) U₃ = 3 J, U₄ = 0.5 J
Explanation:
In a complicated circuit, the method of solving them is to work the circuit in pairs, finding the equivalent capacitance to reduce the circuit to simpler forms.
In this case let's start by finding the equivalent capacitance.
A) Let's solve the part where C1 and C3 are. These two capacitors are in serious
[tex]\frac{1}{C_{eq}} = \frac{1}{C_1} + \frac{1}{C_3}[/tex] (you has an mistake in the formula)
[tex]\frac{1}{C_{eq1}} = (\frac{1}{30} + \frac{1}{15}) \ 10^{6}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{C_{eq1}}[/tex] = 0.1 10⁶
[tex]C_{eq1}[/tex] = 10 10⁻⁶ F
capacitors C₂, C₄ and C₅ are in series
[tex]\frac{1}{C_{eq2}} = \frac{1}{C_2} + \frac{1}{C_4} + \frac{1}{C_5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{C_{eq2} } = (\frac{1}{15} + \frac{1}{30} + \frac{1}{10} ) \ 10^6[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{C_{eq2} }[/tex] = 0.2 10⁶
[tex]C_{eq2}[/tex] = 5 10⁻⁶ F
the two equivalent capacitors are in parallel therefore
C_{eq} = C_{eq1} + C_{eq2}
C_{eq} = (10 + 5) 10⁻⁶
C_{eq} = 15 10⁻⁶ F
B) the energy stored in C₃
The charge on the parallel voltage is constant
is the sum of the charge on each branch
Q = C_{eq} V
Q = 15 10⁻⁶ 6
Q = 90 10⁻⁶ C
the charge on each branch is
Q₁ = Ceq1 V
Q₁ = 10 10⁻⁶ 6
Q₁ = 60 10⁻⁶ C
Q₂ = C_{eq2} V
Q₂ = 5 10⁻⁶ 6
Q₂ = 30 10⁻⁶ C
now let's analyze the load on each branch
Branch C₁ and C₃
In series combination the charge is constant Q = Q₁ = Q₃
U₃ = [tex]\frac{Q^2}{2 C_3}[/tex]
U₃ =[tex]\frac{ 60 \ 10^{-6}}{2 \ 10 \ 10^{-6}}[/tex]
U₃ = 3 J
In Branch C₂, C₄, C₅
since the capacitors are in series the charge is constant Q = Q₂ = Q₄ = Q₅
U₄ = [tex]\frac{30 \ 10^{-6}}{ 2 \ 30 \ 10^{-6}}[/tex]
U₄ = 0.5 J

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
A solenoid has a length 11.34 cm , a radius 1.85 cm , and 1627 turns. The solenoid has a net resistance of 144.9 Ω . A circular loop with radius of 3.77 cm is placed around the solenoid, such that it lies in a plane whose normal is aligned with the solenoid axis, and the center of the outer loop lies on the solenoid axis. The outer loop has a resistance of 1651.6 Ω. At a time of 0 s , the solenoid is connected to a battery that supplies a potential 34.95 V. At a time 2.58 μs , what current flows through the outer loop?
Answer:
the current flows through the outer loop is 1.3 × 10⁻⁵ A
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Length [tex]l[/tex] = 11.34 cm = 0.1134 m
radius a = 1.85 cm = 0.0185 m
turns N = 1627
Net resistance [tex]R_{sol[/tex] = 144.9 Ω
radius b = 3.77 cm = 0.0377 m
[tex]R_o[/tex] = 1651.6 Ω
ε = 34.95 V
t = 2.58 μs = 2.58 × 10⁻⁶ s
Now, Inductance; L = μ₀N²πa² / [tex]l[/tex]
so
L = [ ( 4π × 10⁻⁷ ) × ( 1627 )² × π( 0.0185 )² ] / 0.1134
L = 0.003576665 / 0.1134
L = 0.03154
Now,
ε = d∅/dt = [tex]\frac{d}{dt}[/tex]( BA ) = [tex]\frac{d}{dt}[/tex][ (μ₀In)πa² ]
so
ε = μ₀n [tex]\frac{dI}{dt}[/tex]( πa² )
ε = [ μ₀Nπa² / [tex]l[/tex] ] [tex]\frac{dI}{dt}[/tex]
ε = [ μ₀Nπa² / [tex]l[/tex] ] [ (ε/L)e^( -t/[tex]R_{sol[/tex]) ]
I = ε/[tex]R_o[/tex] = [ μ₀Nπa² / [tex]R_o[/tex][tex]l[/tex] ] [ (ε/L)e^( -t/[tex]R_{sol[/tex]) ]
so we substitute in our values;
I = [ (( 4π × 10⁻⁷ ) × 1627 × π(0.0185)²) / (1651.6 ×0.1134) ] [ ( 34.95 / 0.03154)e^( -2.58 × 10⁻⁶ / 144.9 ) ]
I = [ 2.198319 × 10⁻⁶ / 187.29144 ] [ 1108.116677 × e^( -1.7805 × 10⁻⁸ )
I = [ 1.17374 × 10⁻⁸ ] × [ 1108.116677 × 0.99999998 ]
I = [ 1.17374 × 10⁻⁸ ] × [ 1108.11665 ]
I = 1.3 × 10⁻⁵ A
Therefore, the current flows through the outer loop is 1.3 × 10⁻⁵ A

A car is driving towards an intersection when the light turns red. The brakes apply a constant force of 1,398 newtons to bring the car to a complete stop in 25 meters. If the weight of the car is 4,729 newtons, how fast was the car going initially
Answers
Answer:
the initial velocity of the car is 12.04 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
force applied by the break, f = 1,398 N
distance moved by the car before stopping, d = 25 m
weight of the car, W = 4,729 N
The mass of the car is calculated as;
W = mg
m = W/g
m = (4,729) / (9.81)
m = 482.06 kg
The deceleration of the car when the force was applied;
-F = ma
a = -F/m
a = -1,398 / 482.06
a = -2.9 m/s²
The initial velocity of the car is calculated as;
v² = u² + 2ad
where;
v is the final velocity of the car at the point it stops = 0
u is the initial velocity of the car before the break was applied
0 = u² + 2(-a)d
0 = u² - 2ad
u² = 2ad
u = √2ad
u = √(2 x 2.9 x 25)
u =√(145)
u = 12.04 m/s
Therefore, the initial velocity of the car is 12.04 m/s

f(short)/f(avg)=?
Answers
We have that the ratio of his walking pace to the walking pace of a person of average height is
[tex]\frac{V_2}{V_1}=1.10[/tex]
given the assumption and the calculation given below
From the question we are told that:
Consider a person 18\% shorter than average
Let average height of a person be [tex]10m[/tex]
Therefore
The height of an [tex]18\%[/tex] shorter man is mathematically given as
H=10*0.18
H=8.2m
Generally, the equation for velocity is mathematically given by
[tex]v=\frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{{g}{l}}[/tex]
Where we have the Assumption that a person's leg swings like a pendulum and that the angular amplitude of everybody's stride is about the same
Therefore
[tex]\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{l_1}{l_2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{V_1}{V_2}={82}{100}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{V_2}{V_1}=1.10[/tex]
In conclusion
The ratio of his walking pace (that is, the frequency 'f' of his motion) to the walking pace of a person of average height is
[tex]\frac{V_2}{V_1}=1.10[/tex]

A car is traveling at 118 km/h when the driver sees an accident 85 m ahead and slams on the brakes. What minimum constant deceleration is required to stop the car in time to avoid a pileup
Answers
Answer:
The constant minimum deceleration required to stop the car in time to avoid pileup is 6.32 m/s²
Explanation:
From the question, the car is traveling at 118 km/h, that is the initial velocity, u = 118km/h
The distance between the car and the accident at the moment when the driver sees the accident is 85 m, that is s = 85 ,
Since the driver slams on the brakes and the car will come to a stop, then the final velocity, v = 0 km/h = 0 m/s
First, convert 118 km/h to m/s
118 km/h = (118 × 1000) /3600 = 32.7778 m/s
∴ u = 32.7778 m/s
Now, to determine the deceleration, a, required to stop,
From one of the equations of motion for linear motion,
v² = u² + 2as
Then
0² = (32.7778)² + 2×a×85
0 = 1074.3841 + 170a
∴ 170a = - 1074.3841
a = - 1074.3841 / 170
a = - 6.3199
a ≅ - 6.32 m/s²
Hence, the constant minimum deceleration required to stop the car in time to avoid pileup is 6.32 m/s²

If a boy lifts a mass of 6kg to a height of 10m and travels horizontally with a constant velocity of 4.2m/s, calculate the work done? Explain your answer.
Answers
Answer:
W = 641.52 J
Explanation:
The work done here will be the sum of potential energy and the kinetic energy of the boy. Here potential energy accounts for vertical motion part while the kinetic energy accounts for the horizontal motion part:
[tex]Work\ Done = Kinetic\ Energy + Potential\ Energy\\\\W = K.E +P.E\\\\W = \frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh\\\\[/tex]
where,
W = Work Done = ?
m = mass = 6 kg
v = speed = 4.2 m/s
g = acceleration dueto gravity = 9.81 m/s²
h = height = 10 m
Therefore,
[tex]W = \frac{1}{2}(6\ kg)(4.2\ m/s)^2+(6\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)(10\ m)[/tex]
W = 52.92 J + 588.6 J
W = 641.52 J
A mass is tired to spring and begins vibration periodically the distance between it's lowest position is 48cm what is the Amplitude of the vibration
Answers
Answer:
The amplitude of vibration of the spring is "24 cm"
The periodic vibrating body's motion follows a sinusoidal path. This sinusoidal path is illustrated in the attached picture.
From the picture, it can be clearly seen that the amplitude of the periodic vibration motion is the distance from its mean position to the highest point.
Since the distance of both the highest and the lowest points from the mean position is the same. Therefore, the distance between the lowest and the highest point must be equal to two times the amplitude of the wave.
Amplitude = 24 cm

A projectile is fired into the air from the top of a 200-m cliff above a valley as shown below. Its initial velocity is 60 m/s at 60° above the horizontal. Calculate (a) the maximum height, (b) the time required to reach its highest point, (c) the total time of flight, (d) the components of its velocity just before striking the ground, and (e) the horizontal distance traveled from the base of the cliff.
Answers
a) y(max) = 337.76 m
b) t₁ = 5.30 s the time for y maximum
c)t₂ = 13.60 s time for y = 0 time when the fly finish
d) vₓ = 30 m/s vy = - 81.32 m/s
e)x = 408 m
Equations for projectile motion:
v₀ₓ = v₀ * cosα v₀ₓ = 60*(1/2) v₀ₓ = 30 m/s ( constant )
v₀y = v₀ * sinα v₀y = 60*(√3/2) v₀y = 30*√3 m/s
a) Maximum height:
The following equation describes the motion in y coordinates
y = y₀ + v₀y*t - (1/2)*g*t² (1)
To find h(max), we need to calculate t₁ ( time for h maximum)
we take derivative on both sides of the equation
dy/dt = v₀y - g*t
dy/dt = 0 v₀y - g*t₁ = 0 t₁ = v₀y/g
v₀y = 60*sin60° = 60*√3/2 = 30*√3
g = 9.8 m/s²
t₁ = 5.30 s the time for y maximum
And y maximum is obtained from the substitution of t₁ in equation (1)
y (max) = 200 + 30*√3 * (5.30) - (1/2)*9.8*(5.3)²
y (max) = 200 + 275.40 - 137.64
y(max) = 337.76 m
Total time of flying (t₂) is when coordinate y = 0
y = 0 = y₀ + v₀y*t₂ - (1/2)* g*t₂²
0 = 200 + 30*√3*t₂ - 4.9*t₂² 4.9 t₂² - 51.96*t₂ - 200 = 0
The above equation is a second-degree equation, solving for t₂
t = [51.96 ±√ (51.96)² + 4*4.9*200]/9.8
t = [51.96 ±√2700 + 3920]/9.8
t = [51.96 ± 81.36]/9.8
t = 51.96 - 81.36)/9.8 we dismiss this solution ( negative time)
t₂ = 13.60 s time for y = 0 time when the fly finish
The components of the velocity just before striking the ground are:
vₓ = v₀ *cos60° vₓ = 30 m/s as we said before v₀ₓ is constant
vy = v₀y - g *t vy = 30*√3 - 9.8 * (13.60)
vy = 51.96 - 133.28 vy = - 81.32 m/s
The sign minus means that vy change direction
Finally the horizontal distance is:
x = vₓ * t
x = 30 * 13.60 m
x = 408 m

An object of mass 80 kg is released from rest from a boat into the water and allowed to sink. While gravity is pulling the object down, a buoyancy force of 1/50 times the weight of the object is pushing the object up (weight=mg). If we assume that water resistance exerts a force on the abject that is proportional to the velocity of the object, with proportionality constant 10 N-sec/m, find the equation of motion of the object. After how many seconds will the velocity of the object be 40 m/s? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/sec^2.
Answers
Answer:
a) Fnet = mg - Fb - Fr
b) 8.67 secs
Explanation:
mass of object = 80 kg
Buoyancy force = 1/50 * weight ( 80 * 9.81 ) = 15.696
Proportionality constant = 10 N-sec/m
a) Calculate equation of motion of the object
Force of resistance on object due to water = Fr ∝ V
= Fr = Kv = 10 V
Given that : Fb( due to buoyancy ) , Fr ( Force of resistance ) acts in the positive y-direction on the object while mg ( weight ) acts in the negative y - direction on the object.
Fnet = mg - Fb - Fr
∴ Equation of motion of the object ( Ma = mg - Fb - Fr )
b) Calculate how long before velocity of the object hits 40 m/s
Ma = mg - Fb - Fr
a = 9.81 - 0.1962 - 0.125 V = 9.6138 - 0.125 V
V = u + at ---- ( 1 )
u = 0
V = 40 m/s
a = 9.6138 - 0.125 V
back to equation 1
40 = 0 + ( 9.6138 - 0.125 (40) ) t
40 = 4.6138 t
∴ t = 40 / 4.6138 = 8.67 secs

The angular separation (in degrees) between the second and the third orders on the same side of the central bright fringe if the wavelength is 500 nm and A diffraction grating has 6000 lines per centimeter ruled on it, is 27.29°.
What is diffraction?Waves spreading outward around obstructions are known as diffraction. Sound, electromagnetic radiation like light, X-rays, and gamma rays, as well as very small moving particles like atoms, neutrons, and electrons that exhibit wavelike qualities all exhibit diffraction.
Given:
The number of lines = 6000 per cm,
The Wavelength, λ = 500 nm = 500 × 10 ⁻⁹ m
Calculate the diffraction grating,
[tex]d = 1 / no\ of\ lines[/tex]
d = 10⁻² / 6000 m,
Calculate the second-order maxima angle and third-order maxima angle by the formula given below,
[tex]dsin\theta_1 = n_1 \lambda[/tex]
[tex]sin\theta_1 = n_1\lambda / d[/tex]
[tex]\theta _1 = sin^{-1}[2\times 500\times 10 ^{-9}/10^{-2}\times 6000][/tex]
θ₁ = sin⁻¹(0.6)
θ₁ = 36.87°
Similarly, for θ₂,
θ₂ = sin⁻¹(3 × 500 × 10 ⁻⁹ / 10⁻² × 6000)
θ₂ = sin⁻¹(0.9)
θ₂ = 64.16°
Calculate the separation as follows,
θ₂ - θ₁ = 64.16° - 36.87°
θ₂ - θ₁ = 27.29°
Therefore, the angular separation (in degrees) between the second and the third orders on the same side of the central bright fringe if the wavelength is 500 nm and A diffraction grating has 6000 lines per centimeter ruled on it, is 27.29°.

[tex]M_aU_a + M_mU_m = V(M_a + M_m)\\\\(2\times 15 )+ (4\times 7) = V(2+4)\\\\58 = 6V\\\\V = \frac{58}{6} = 9.67 \ m/s[/tex]
The initial kinetic of the two masses;
[tex]K.E_i = \frac{1}{2} M_aU_a^2 \ + \ \frac{1}{2} M_mU_m^2\\\\K.E_i = (0.5 \times 2\times 15^2) \ + \ (0.5 \times 4\times 7^2)\\\\K.E_i = 323 \ J[/tex]
The final kinetic energy of the two masses;
[tex]K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} M_aV^2 \ + \ \frac{1}{2} M_mV^2\\\\K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} V^2(M_a + M_m)\\\\K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} \times 9.67^2(2+ 4)\\\\K.E_f = 280.53 \ J[/tex]
The change in kinetic energy is calculated as;
[tex]\Delta K.E = K.E_f \ - \ K.E_i\\\\\Delta K.E = 280.53 \ J \ - \ 323 \ J\\\\\Delta K.E = -42.47 \ J[/tex]
Therefore, the change in the kinetic energy of the system is -42.47 J
