At ignition ( t o ), explosive fuel combustion carries the rocket from its stationary position near the space outpost by producing a ~steady thrust F over the t seconds of the brief burn. t o t o +t Select the best graphical representation of the ship’s speed: t o t o +t

At time t = t o seconds, when the capacitor is fully charged, the switch is toggled as shown. Select the graph best representing the charge, Q, remaining on the capacitor. toto toto toto toto toto toto

A simple circuit consists of a resistor R, a capacitor C charged to a potential V, and a switch that is initially open but then closed. The moment the switch is closed, the current in the circuit is V / R 1) V / R zero 2) zero need more information 3) need more information

Three different capacitors are charged up and then allowed to discharge through the same resistor. The voltage versus time across each capacitor during discharge is shown below. Which capacitor has the largest capacitance? 1) A 2) B 3) C 4)all the same V t A B C

Three different capacitors are charged up and then allowed to discharge through the same resistor. The voltage versus time across each capacitor during discharge is shown below. Which capacitor has the largest capacitance? 1) A 2) B 3) C 4)all the same V t A B C Since the voltage falls 63% of the way to 0 V in time t =  Slower fall off means greater  Since  = RC  C =  / R Greater   greater C
