Answer from: sar70

The current is 0.951 A

Solution:

As per the question:

Capacitance of the capacitor, C = $1.70\mu F$

Resistance of the circuit, R = 14.0 $\Omega$

Voltage of the battery, V = 10.0 V

Now, when the charge become one-fourth of its initial value, the amount of current flowing is given by:

$q' = q(1 - e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}})$ (1)

where

q' = $\frac{q}{4}$

$\tau = RC$

$q' = q(1 - e^{-\frac{t}{RC}})$

$\frac{q}{4} = q(1 - e^{-\frac{t}{RC}})$

$0.25 = (1 - e^{-\frac{t}{RC}})$

$0.75 = e^{-\frac{t}{RC}$

$-\frac{t}{RC} = ln(0.75)$

$-\frac{t}{14\times 1.70\times 10^{- 6}} = - 0.2876$

$t = 6.844\times 10^{- 6} s$

Now,

The current is given by:

$I' = Ie^{-\frac{t}{RC}}$ (2)

Also, $I = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{10}{14} = 0.714 A$

Now, using the value of I = 0.714 A

$I' = 0.714e^{-\frac{6.844\times 10^{- 6}}{14\times 1.70\times 10^{- 6}}} = 0.951 A$

Answer from: nell1234565

I = 0.536 A

Explanation:

The maximum charge of the capacitor is ten volts because after some time the capacitor will acquire the same potential than the battery (Vb), therefore, a quarter of the maxim voltage (10V) is 10V/4 =2.5V.

To solve the problem we need to apply Ohm's law V = I*R when the capacitor voltage (Vc) is at 2.5V, as you can see from the image of the circuit the resistance is between the capacitor and the battery, therefore, the potential difference across the resistance (Vr) is ten volts of the battery minus two point five volts of the capacitor -> Vr = Vb-Vc = 10V-2.5V = 7.5V, applying Ohm's law to the resistance Vr = I*R -> I = Vr/R = 7.5V/14Ω = 0.536 A.

Note: Because all the elements on the circuit are in series the current in all components is the same, please see the graph current vs voltage of the simulated circuit and notice that the current calculated matches the simulation.

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length (in m) of a column of water 1.45 km high for a temperature increase of 1.12°c. assume the column is not free to expand sideways. as a model of the ocean, that is a reasonable approximation, as only parts of the ocean very close to

Determine the time it takes for a satellite to orbit the earth in a circular "near-earth" orbit. the definition of "near-earth" orbit is one which is at a height above the surface of the earth which is small compared to the radius of the earth, so that you may take the acceleration due to gravity as essentially the same as that on the surface. does your result depend on the mass of the satellite?
