51. The switch in Figure P27.51a closes when A,>AV_and opens when AV,
The circuit in Figure P27.41 contains two resistors, R1 = 2.00 kΩ and R2 = 3.00 kΩ, and two capacitors, C1 = 2.00 μF and C2 = 3.00 μF, connected to a battery with emf ε = 120 V. If there are no charges on the capacitors before switch S is closed, determine the charges on capacitors (a) C1 and (b) C2 as functions of time, after the switch is closed.
The girl in Figure 26.12 has her hand on the sphere of a Van de Graaffgenerator that is at a potential of 400,000 V. She is standing on an insulating platform, so no current flows through her. But what happens if she touches something that is grounded? Is she still safe? Figure P26.57 shows the equivalent circuit. CVDG = 20 pF represents the capacitance of the Van de Graaff sphere, Cgirl = 100 pF is the capacitance of the girl’sbody, and R = 5 kΩ is the resistance of her body, from one hand to the other. The switch is closed when she touches ground.a. What is the initial current at the instant the switch is closed?b. What is the time constant for the current to decay?c. Occupational safety experts have found that a shock is safe if the product of the voltage, the current, and the time the current is delivered is less than 13.5 V • A • s = 13.5. Estimate this product. Is this shock safe?
