About Physics:

With the increasing level of academic stress students barely find time to focus on a single subject. After the end of each week students are burdened with a heavy weight of homework and assignments. When it comes to physics homework it becomes a panic situation. Whatever is taught in classroom is not sufficient enough to solve those complex physics homework problems. In such a case you have to either hire a private physics tutor or get help from guidebooks and internet resources. But what if you get a single source for all homework need? Our physics homework service is the right solution for you. It takes care of your physics homework, assignments, projects, quizzes, tests and exam preparation so that you never feel stressed. Our physics homework help service has been streamlined and targeted for school as well as college students. We also help post graduate students and research scholars. We cover all streams of physics like acoustics and sound, atomic physics, thermodynamics, particle physics, mechanics, electricity magnetism, light and optics, fluid mechanics, solid state physics, relativity, dynamics etc.

Question 3. A capacitor is charged by DC supply through

a resistance of 2 megaohms. If it takes 0.5 seconds for the charge to reach three quarters of its final value, what is the capacitance of the capacitor?

Question 5. A resistance R and a 2đ?œ‡F capacitor in series

are connected to a 200 volt direct supply. Across the capacitor is a neon lamp that strikes at 120 volts. Calculate the value of R to make the lamp strikes 5 seconds after switch has been closed.

Solution. The resistance R must be such that the p.d

across the capacitor should rise to 120 volt in 5 seconds after the switch is closed .The lamp would then strike. The equation of charging is

Q = Qo (1 -

–t/CR ) e

Or CV = CV0 (1 Or

Here, V =120 volt, V0 = 200 volt, t = 5 sec and C = 2 x 10-6 farad, ∴ 120 = 200 (1Or
