A battery is charged. The relationship between the charging current, i amperes and the time, t hours passed, is given by the formula:

i = 3 e to the power of -0.36 t
Show the formula for i can be rearranged to give the time t as
t= 1 divided by 0.36 log e (3/i)

  • Battery Charging

    13588 Battery Charging In order to charge a battery there must be a potential difference between the charger and the battery, i.e.a charging voltage.

  • Capacitor - with and without dielectric

    (3) The charging battery remains connected and the space between the plates is filled with a material of dielectric constant 5. Compute the new capacitance, the charge, the field strength and the energy stored.

  • RC Circuit

    389710 Find the value of the resistance in an RC circuit charge by a battery. An initially uncharged 10-mF capacitor is charged by a 10-V battery through a resistance R.

  • Desiging a battery charger



    So we have to find R1 and R2 such that Vin is 6.5volt when the voltage across the battery is 12.08V

    Before that, we have to determine the charging current required for the battery.

  • RC Circuit

    As soon as the battery is introduced in the circuit (t=0), the capacitor behaves like a short circuit and charging current flows through it.

  • Current through Capacitor Circuit

    b) Find the current in the battery long after the switch is closed. Part A Immediately after the switch is closed the capacitor will act as a short circuit (no resistance) while current is flowing through it and charging the capacitor.

  • Parallel plate capacitor: Find the energy stored

    Also, note that we take into account the charging of one plate (from 0 to Q), since the creation of -Q on the opposite plates is the result of the battery pulling "positive" charge out of the plate because by supplying positive charge to the other plate

  • Capacitors

    (b) By direct integration of i2R over the charging time, show that the thermal energy dissipated by the resistor is also half the energy supplied by the emf device.

  • Batteries and Hydrogen

    Here two processes occurs simultaneously discharging and charging During dicharging pb is converted to PbSO4 by taking SO42- from sulphuric acid the emf is being consumed during this process During charging Pb2+ is converted Pb by applying a potential
