- The capacitor in the circuit shown below is initially uncharged. The switch is closed at t = 0 s. AV battery = 30 V, C = 3.0 F, and R = 2.0 2. At sometime after the switch is closed, the current in the circuit is measured to be 9.3 A. What is the charge on the capacitor at this time, in Coulomb? Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.arrow_forwardEach of the eight conductors in the figure carries 3.15 A of current into or out of the page. Two paths are indicated for the line integral B. ds. What is the value of the integral for (a) path 1 and (b) path 2?arrow_forwardA conducting rod with a circular cross-section (this rod is a cylinder) has a radius of 1o mm and is 2 metres long. The rod is made of aluminum, so its conductivity is 3.6 x 10' s/m. A potential difference (voltage) is applied at both ends of this rod and the current is I= 90 A. That's a lot of current! a. What is the resistance of the rod, when measured from one end to the other? b. Calculate the current density in the rod along its length. . Determine the electric field amplitude at all locations within the rod. d. What is the electric potential difference between the two ends of the rod.arrow_forward
- A (1.91x10^2)-mA current is used to charge up a parallel plate capacitor. A large square piece of paper is placed between the plates and parallel to them so it sticks out on all sides.

- The two 10-cm-long parallel wires shown are separated by 5.0 mm. For what value of the resistor R will the force between the two wires be 5.4 x 10-5 N?arrow_forwardAn electron is travelling at 100.0 km/s parallel to a long straight horizontal conductor a distance of 3.00 cm from the conductor. A current of 12.0 A runs through the wire as the electron travels parallel to it, in the same direction as the electron’s velocity. Find the strength of the external electric field that will prevent the electron from deviating from its original path. Express your answer in V/marrow_forward33. Parts (a) through (e) of this problem should be done by inspection-that is, mentally. The intent is to obtain an approximate solution without a lengthy series of calcula- tions.
