A.

10.0V

B.

8.0V

C.

6.7V

D.

2.0V

Correct answer is D

Using the circuit diagram above. Calculate the total charge in the circuit

A.

80μC

B.

35μC

C.

20μC

D.

16μC

Correct answer is D

C - C1+C2=2+6=μF

1C=1C1+1C1+1C2=18+12

C = 85μF

Q = CV

= 85×10=16μC

The change in mass of fuel during a nuclear reaction is 2.0 x 10-27 kg. Calculate the amount of energy released. (Speed of light = 2.0 x 108ms-1)

A.

1.8 x 10-10J

B.

9.0 x 10-11J

C.

6.0 x 10-19J

D.

1.2 x 10-45J

Correct answer is A

Q = ΔMC2

= 2 x 10-27(3 x 10)2

= 1.8 x 10-10J
