Consider an RC circuit in which a capacitor is being charged by a battery connected in a circuit. Initially the capacitor is uncharged. Then the switch is closed. After a time equal to 3.1 time constants, what percent of the final charge is present on the capacitor? Answer in units of %.

The lights used by mark watley (played by matt damon) during the film the martian seem to be metal halide lamps. metal halide lamps are filled with vaporized mercury and metal-halogen compounds. when an electric current is passed through the lamp, the tube begins to glow a bright white/blue color. if you were to pass this light through a prism to separate the individual light frequencies, you would see a rainbow just as you would if using natural sunlight because of the complexity of the metal halide gas and the vast amount of possible electron transitions. (the study of light in this way is known as spectroscopy and allows astronomers to know exactly what atoms compose distant stars, simply by looking at the light they emit. the spectral lines an atom produces uniquely identifies that atom just like a fingerprint uniquely identifies a person. the momentum equation and energy equation that we have used above can be combined to give the following equation: c = e p where again p is the phonon momentum, e is the photon energy and c is the speed of light. when you divide the photon energy found in #6 by the photon momentum found in #4, do you get the speed of light? (if not, check your work for questions #4 through #6). yes no

A175 g lump of molten lead at its melting point (327 c) is placed into 55.0 g of water at 20.0 c. the specific heat of lead is 130.j/kg c and the hf of lead is 20,400 j/kg. when the lead and the water have reached equilibrium, what is the temperature of the mixture?

Greg drew a diagram to compare two of the fundamental forces. which labels belong in the areas marked x, y and z? gravitational force electromagnetic force x. attractive y repulsive z: infinite range x: infinite range y attractive z. repulsive x. always attractive y: infinite range z: attractive or repulsive x. attractive or repulsive y infinite range z: always attractive
