    Hydrogen ions moving through a battery

    Homework Statement In one type of battery, the current is carried by hydrogen ions moving through the liquid. If 1A is flowing through the battery, how long will it take for 1 mole of hydrogen ions to move through the battery? 1 mole of protons = 6.0 x 1023 protons qp = 1.6022 x 10-19 C...

    RLC Circuit lab equipment problem

    I have tried different capacitors and inductors, but I would also get the same results. I went home and slept on it. When I came back in this morning I tried it again and everything worked, but I changed the order of the resistor, capacitor, and inductor. Which is odd because I never had to do...

    Radial Dependency of Navarro-Frenk-White profile

    Homework Statement Determine the radial dependence of gas density for an isothermal cluster of galaxies with temperature T that has a total mass density profile given by the Navarro, Frenk, & White form: ρ(r) = ρcδc , (r/rs)(1 + r/rs)2 where ρc is the critical density, rs is a characteristic...
