Answer

(a) $$ \begin{array}{c}{\mathrm{Q}=864 \mathrm{C}}\end{array} $$ --- (b) $$\mathrm{Energy} =1,167 J$$

Work Step by Step

(a) $40 m A=0.04 A$ $Q=$ area under the current-time curve $=\int I d t=(0.04)(6)(3600)=864 \mathrm{C}$ $$ \begin{array}{c}{\mathrm{Q}=864 \mathrm{C}}\end{array} $$ --- (b) $$\quad \frac{\mathrm{d} \mathrm{w}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\mathrm{P}$$ $$w=\int P d t=\int v i d t=(3600) \int_{0}^{2} v i d t+(3600) \int_{2}^{6} v i d t$$ $$=(3600) \int_{0}^{2}\left(1.2-0.45 e^{-t / 0.4}\right)(0.04) d t+(3600) \int_{2}^{6}\left(1.5-0.3 e^{-(t-2) / 0.4}\right)(0.04) d t$$ $$=1,167 J$$ $$\therefore \mathrm{Energy} =1,167 J$$
