Hi, I had an experiment about electrical and mechanical energy.
Charging difference capacitance of capacitor and when it connect the motor, the weights move up. So, I need a efficency of each trial.
And, I have two equations from the class and prediction graph. But, I don't know how to find prediction equation with physical concepts.
Could you explain about that?
Thank you very much.
So here a capacitor is being charged and then used to drive a motor which lifts a weight up. In the experiment, the efficiency of the motor is being measured, i.e. the efficiency with which, it converts the electrical energy supplied to it to mechanical work/energy in lifting the weight.
When a potential difference of V is reached across a capacitor while getting charged, the charge on each plate of the capacitor is Q = C*V, where C is the capacitance.
During the charging, if v be the potential difference across the plates and q be the charge at any instant, the work done in increasing the charge by dq is given by
So the net work done in charging the capacitor to Q which is the electrical energy stored in the capacitor is given by,
When the capacitor gets discharged through the motor, this energy is supplied to the motor.
The energy spent or the work done by the motor in lifting the mass m through a height x is the change in gravitational potential energy of the mass, which is mgx.
Since there will be losses, a fraction of the electrical energy available to the motor will be used to do this mechanical work. i.e.
So the efficiency will be the slope of the curve that can be drawn by measuring the lift and the voltage across the capacitor in each experiment and charging the capacitor to higher voltages in each trial within the capacitor rating.

8. Capacitance in circuits, RC circuits When a voltage source Vo is applied to a capacitor in a circuit which has a resistance R, a charge Q CV will build up across the capacitor. This does not happen instantaneously, but takes some time. The charge builds up exponentially with a characteristic time r = RC. Charging: V = v. 1 - e-t/RC) Discharging: Vc = V e-t/RC Page 2 of 3 When t = RC , the exponential is lle,...

This is my experiment about Earth magnetic field induction by tangensgalvonometer. I must additional conclusion for my experimental values and Bo=1.68x10^-5 T. Could you compare Bo=1.68x10^-5 and my experimental values. experiment did same city which is Bo=1.68x10^-5 I need conclusion about this case. thank you.

just one example/demonstration! Data needed to be calculated is in highlighted in green boxes. And I highlighted in red an equation (not sure if thats what you use to calculate it) And ignore the lab instructions on completeing a graph!! I already know how to do that in excel, just curious how Ln (relative rate) and 1/T in K^-1 is calculated by hand* here is the rest of that lab leading up to the question as I know its typically...
