R-C Circuit

Q- A 2.00-nF capacitor with an initial charge of 5.10 µC is discharged through a 1.30-kW resistor.

(a) Calculate the current in the resistor 9.00 µS after the resistor is connected across the terminals of the capacitor.

(b) What charge remains on the capacitor after 8.00 µS?

(c) What is the m…

Kirchhoff's Law

Q. Consider the circuit below.

a) Reduce the circuit to a two loop circuit and redraw the circuit showing the directions of the currents I1, I2 and I3. (Take I2 to flow through the central section of the circuit).

b) Using two clockwise traverse loops for the left and right sections of the circu…

Collision

Q- A block of mass m1 = 4kg moves to the right with a speed of v1 = 10m/s toward a second block of mass m2 = 5kg that moves to the left with a speed v2 =3m/s. after the blocks collide head on; it is found that the m1 remains stationary. Determine the coefficient of restitution between the two blocks…
