Answer to Problem 1PLA

The emf of typical new dry cell is between 1.50 volt and 1.6 volt and its the internal resistance is between 1 ohm to a few ohms. And the emf of a very old dry cell is 1.3 volts and its internal resistance is several thousand ohms.

Explanation of Solution

The electromotive force (emf) of a new dry cell is ranges between 1.50 volt and 1.6 volt. The internal resistance of a new dry cell is ranges between 1 ohm to a few ohms.

Whereas the electromotive force (emf) of a very old dry cell might be only 1.3 volts and the internal resistance of a very old dry cell is several thousand ohms.

Conclusion:

Thus, the emf of typical new dry cell is between 1.50 volt and 1.6 volt and its the internal resistance is between 1 ohm to a few ohms. And the emf of a very old dry cell is 1.3 volts and its internal resistance is several thousand ohms.

In (Figure 1) C1 = 6.00 μF, C2 = 6.00 μF, C3 = 12.0 μF, and C4 = 3.00 μF. The capacitor network is connected to an applied potential difference Vab. After the charges on the capacitors have reached their final values, the voltage across C3 is 40.0 V. What is the voltage across C4? What is the voltage Vab applied to the network? Please explain everything in steps.
