A neon gas tube has Von = 60.0 V and Voff = 30.0 V . What resistor value should you choose to go with a 20.0 μF capacitor and a 120 V battery to make a 30.0 Hz oscillator?

Therefore,

The resistor value , R is 9.4 kΩ.

Explanation:

Given:

A neon gas tube has

Von = 60.0 V and

Voff = 30.0 V

Capacitor, C =  20.0 μF

Battery , E = 120  V

Frequency = f = 30 hz

To Find:

Resistor , R =?

Solution:

Time period of the wave will be only the charging time of the capacitor,the capacitor will be charged to Von from initial voltage Voff  is given by,

Where,

R = Resistance

C =Capacitance

E = Battery in volts

ln = natural Log (Sign)

Substituting the values we get

Therefore,

The resistor value , R is 9.4 kΩ.

b would be the answer

acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (20-120)= -100 m/s.

1.5 min = 90 sec

acceleration = -100/90 = -1.11 m/s^2.

we don't care about the 150kg or the 2,500 meters. they don't make any difference.
