- Let us we consider two resistors in series, both with the same dimensions, and the same effective mass. The first resistor has a scattering rate t, and the second has a scattering rate of t71. They both have area A and length L and the same charge density and effective masses.

- The capacitor in the figure has square plates with b meters on each side. Neglect fringing in the system. A square conducting slab is allowed to move between the two plates. The square surface of the slab also has b meters on each side. In addition, the slab has a height of h meters, and a negligible resistance. Capacitance in Coulombs is given by the following equation in all possible states of the capacitor. What is the magnitude of the electrostatic force?arrow_forwardThe voltage drop across the capacitor rises from 0 to ℰ. Note that ℰ is never actually known in the measurement. In fact, the oscilloscope voltage is decalibrated, so that, whatever ℰ is, ℰ is at the top line while zero is at the bottom line. We don't measure voltage levels, but rather 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8 the maximum. Kirchhoff's voltage law give: ℰ = IR + Q/C or the following: dQdt=−1RC(Q−EC)dQdt=−1RC(Q−ℰC) The solution for the capacitor voltage is VC(t)=E(1−e−t/RC)VC(t)=ℰ(1−e−t/RC) Calculate the theoretical half-life (in μs) of the circuit. The quantities are: R = 0.7 kΩ C = 6.3 μFarrow_forward2arrow_forward
