- Consider the circuit shown in Figure P20.52, where C1 = 6.00 F, C2 = 3.00 F, and V = 20.0 V. Capacitor C1 is first charged by closing switch S1. Switch S1 is then opened, and the charged capacitor is connected to the uncharged capacitor by closing S2. Calculate (a) the initial charge acquired by C1 and (b) the final charge on each capacitor. Figure P20.52arrow_forwardA capacitor with initial charge Q0 is connected across a resistor R at time t = 0. The separation between the plates of the capacitor changes as d = d0/(1 + t) for 0 t 1 s. Find an expression for the voltage drop across the capacitor as a function of time.arrow_forwardA 24.0 V battery is connected via switch S to a resistor R = 180 mΩ and two initially uncharged capacitors, C1 = 0.480 μF and C2 = 0.240 μF, as shown in the accompanying circuit diagram. A straight 6.00 m length of nichrome wire with diameter d = 2.50 mm and resistivity 1.1e-6 Ωm is connected in parallel with the resistor and the capacitors. A voltmeter is connected between point X (1.00 m away from one end of the nichrome wire) and point Y, midway between the two capacitors. a)Find the current strength in the nichrome and the resistor after the switch is closed. b)Calculate the charge on each of the fully charged capacitors. c)Determine the steady state reading on the voltmeter.arrow_forward
- A controller on an electronic arcade game consists of a variable resistor connected across the plates of a 0.220 mF capacitor. The capacitor is charged to 5.00 V, then discharged through the resistor. The time for the potential difference across the plates to decrease to 0.800 V is measured by a clock inside the game. If the range of discharge times that can be handled effectively is from 10.0 ms to 6.00 ms, what should be the (a) lower value and (b) higher value of the resistance range of the resistor?arrow_forwardIn Example 23.14 we estimated the capacitance of the cell membrane to be 89 pF, and in Example 23.15 we found that approximately 10,000 Na+ ions flow through an ion channel when it opens. Based on this information and what you learned about the action potential, estimate the total number of sodium channels in the membrane of a nerve cell.arrow_forwardWhat is the time constant for the discharge of the capacitors in the circuit shown in the figure? if the 2.00 uf capacitor initially has a potential difference of 10v across its plates. how much charge remains after the switch has been closed for a time equal to half the time constant?arrow_forward
- Suppose a biological membrane with a specific capacitance of 1 μF/cm^2 has a resting surface charge density of 0.1 μC/cm^2. Also suppose there are 50 sodium channels per μm^2 and thatwhen each opens for 1 ms, 1000 Na+ ions flow through the channel, resulting in a reduction of the potential difference (the membrane voltage). Compare this membrane’s resting potentialvoltage to the membrane voltage 1 ms after 10% of these channels open, assuming no other changes occur during this time.arrow_forwardThe circuit shown contains two resistors, R1 = 2.00 kΩ and R2 = 3.00 kΩ, and two capacitors, C1 = 2.00 μF and C2 = 3.00 μF, connected to a battery with emf ε = 120 V. If there are no charges on the capacitors before switch S is closed, determine the charges on capacitors (a) C1 and (b) C2 as functions of time, after the switch is closed.arrow_forwardTwo capacitors C1 = 2.2 ?F and C2 = 1.2 ?F, and are connected in parallel to a 24V source as shown in Fig. a. After they are charged they are disconnected from the source and from each other, and then reconnected directly to each other with plates of opposite sign connected together (see Fig. b). Find the charge on each capacitor and the potential across each after equilibrium is established (Fig. c).arrow_forward
- In the figure provided, an emf of 9 V is connected to the three capacitors. If C1C1 = 5.70 μF, C2C2 = 2.40 μF and C3C3 = 7.60 μF, what is the charge on C2C2?arrow_forwardA 5.00-μF capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 800 V and then discharged through a resistor. How much energy is delivered to the resistor in the time interval required to fully discharge the capacitor?arrow_forwardA 0.25 μF capacitor is charged to 50 V. It is then connected in series with a 25 Ω resistor and a 100 Ω resistor and allowed to discharge completely. How much energy (3 sf) is dissipated by the 25 Ω resistor?arrow_forward
