The equation of discharge of a capacitor is given by Q = Qoe^(-t/RC) , define the terms half life and time constant of a discharging capacitor and derive the expression that links them.
A tyre of mass 15kg is suspended on a rope of length 7.5m and a girl of mass 75kg sits in the tyre. If the girls speed at the lowest point as she swings is 5m/s and the rope extends by 20cm, find the radius of this rope(young modulus = 2.0 x 10^11 Pa)
