Question 1 Switch S in in the figure is closed at time t = 0, to begin charging an initially uncharged capacitor of capacitance C = 18.2 μf through a resistor of resistance R = 22.3 Ω. At what time (in ms) is the potential across the capacitor equal to that across the resistor? Question 2 The figure shows the circuit of a flashing lamp, like those attached to barrels at highway construction sites. The fluorescent lamp L (of negligible capacitance) is connected in parallel across the capacitor C of an RC circuit. There is a current through the lamp only when the potential difference across it reaches the breakdown voltage V L ; then the capacitor discharges completely through the lamp and the lamp flashes briefly. For a lamp with breakdown voltage V L = 71.4 V, wired to a 92.7 V ideal battery and a 0.156 mf capacitor, what resistance R is needed for 3 flashes per second?

In each situation, determine whether the orientations of the vectors are physically reasonable.

Question 8 A certain commercial mass spectrometer (Fig. 28-12) is used to separate uranium ions of mass 3.92 x 10-25 kg and charge 3.20 x 10-19 C from related species. The ions are accelerated through a potential difference of 92.4 kv and then pass into a uniform magnetic field, where they are bent in a path of radius 0.772 m. After traveling through 180 and passing through a slit of width 1.46 mm and height 0.972 cm, they are collected in a cup.
