Question

In the diagram below the capacitor has a capacitance of 79F and the inductor has an inductance of 66 mH.Initially the capacitor has a voltage of 17 V. This circuit has noresistance.


A. How much charge does the capacitor initiallyhave?
1 C

B. How much energy does the capacitor initiallyhave?
2 J

C. What is the maximum current that will passthrough the inductor?
3 A

Response Details:

   a.   Charge   Q   =   C* V

                              =   79* 10-6 * 17

                              =   1.343* 10-3   C

   b.   Enegy storedin thecapacitor   U   =   (1/2)* C * V2

                                                            =   0.5* 79 * 10-6 * 172

                                                            =   1.14* 10-2   J

   c.   Maximum energyin indcutor   =   U

         (1/2)* L *Imax2   =   1.14* 10-2       0.5 * 66* 10-3 *Imax2   =   1.14*10-2           

     Imax   =   (1.14* 10-2 / 3.30 * 10-2)

                  =   0.5877   A

An object is held 99.5 cm away from a mirror. The mirror has afocal length of 72.9 cm.

a.) Determine the image distance.
1 cm

b.) Determine the magnification.
2

c.) If the object is 9.8 cm long, determine the image height.
3 cm

d.)Which of the following are true about the image? Choose all thatapply.

4

The image is virtual. The image isupright. The image is inverted. The image isreal.



e.)Which of the following are true about the mirror? Choose all thatapply.

5

The mirror is concave. The mirror isconvex. The mirror is converging. The mirror isdiverging.

Answer:

       q = pf / p -f = 99.5*72.9 / 99.6-72.9 = 272.69cm

(b) Magnification m = -q/p = -272.69 / 99.5 =- 2.74

(c) magnification m = hf /hi

      -2.74 = hf / 9.8

      hf = -26.85 cm

(d) for lens image is real andinverted

Explanation / Answer

Your answers for the inductor question is correct .. But in mirror problem , the object distance is taken to be negativeby convention . So put p=-99.5 cm to get the answers . Also as far as the mirror is concerned , here focal length ispositive , So from convention of mirrors , the mirror is convex andhence diverging .
