Electronic flash units for cameras contain a capacitor for storing the energy used to produce the flash. In one such unit, the flash lasts for a time interval of 1.46×10−3 s with an average light power output of 3.50×105 W Part A If the conversion of electrical energy to light has an efficiency of 92.0% (the rest of the energy goes to thermal energy), how much energy must be stored in the capacitor for one flash? Express your answer in joules. Submit Request Answer Part B The capacitor has a potential difference between its plates of 105 V when the stored energy equals the value calculated in part A. What is the capacitance? Express your answer in farads.

Consider an inelastic collision between a 1 Kg cart moving to the right at 2 m/s and a 2 Kg cart moving to the left at 4 m/s. What is the speed and direction of the 2 carts after they have stuck together? A mass m1 traveling to the right with a speed v1 makes a glancing collision with a mass m2 initially at rest. After the collision the masses have speeds v1, and v2, and move in directions θ1 and θ2, as shown below. Determine the velocity of m2 after collision (i. e. find v2′)

Now imagine two identical mass pucks colliding on an air hockey table with an elastic collision; both are going the same speed but in opposite directions (arbitrarily chosen as +x and −x). Their collision paths are offset by exactly their radius (see picture). Assume the force they exert on each other only acts in the 45 degree angle with respect to +x as shown in b. They ricochet as shown in c. (red arrows indicate velocity in a. and c.) a. (6) Explain why they ricochet perfectly into the +y and −y directions. b. (6) Explain why their individual initial momentum in the y direction was zero but now they both have momentum in the y direction. (Specifically, why this doesn't violate the conservation of momentum? ) a. Before collision b. During collision c. After collision
