An unknown capacitor is charged to 6v, its maximum value, then discharged through a 1k ohm resistor. If the capacitor voltage is 3v, 0.3 seconds after starting to discharge, what is the capacitance of the unknown capacitor?

To start, the equation to use can be identified as the capactior discharge equation V(t) = Vmaxe-t/RC. From here, we can see that this equation can be solved to give capacitance, and...

Calculate the pH change when water is added to 25.0 ml of 0.250M NaOH to form a 1.00l solution.

The initial [-OH] is 0.250M since NaOH releases 1 mole of -OH per mole of base. Using Kw=[H+][-OH], [H+]=(110-14)/0.250=410-14M (note remember units). Hence the initial pH=-...

Briefly explain how Darwin formulated his theory of evolution by natural selection.

Darwin made four key observations in his studies of wild populations: members of a population of the same species vary in their traits; traits can be inherited, or passed from parents to offspring; popula...

2x^2-6x+5 can be written in the form a(x -b)^ 2 + c where a, b and c are positive numbers. Find a,b and c.

In order to solve this problem we must first complete the square. To complete the square we need to factorise the equation to get the coefficient of x to be 1. This gives: 2(x^2-3x)+5. We then need to com...
