A battery with emf e m f is connected in series with an inductance L and a resistance R. (a) Assuming the current has reached steady state when it is at 99% of its maximum value, how long does it take to reach steady state, assuming the initial current is zero? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary. To represent e m f, use E.) t99% = (b) If an emergency power circuit needs to reach steady state within 1.2 ms of turning on and the circuit has a total resistance of 72 Ω, what values of the total inductance of the circuit are needed to satisfy the requirement? (Give the maximum value.) H

An  atom  (ours, not carroll's) consists of a positively charged  nucleus, surrounded by one or more negatively charged particles called  electrons. the positive charges equal the negative charges, so the atom has no overall charge; it is electrically neutral. most of an atom's mass is in its nucleus; the mass of an electron is only 1/1836 the mass of the lightest nucleus, that of hydrogen. although the nucleus is heavy, it is quite small compared with the overall size of an atom. the radius of a typical atom is around 0.1 to 0.25 nanometres (nm), whereas the radius of a nucleus is about 10-6  nm.  *  if an atom were enlarged to the size of the earth, its nucleus would be only 200 feet in diameter and could easily rest inside a small football stadium.read more on -
