18N.2.HL.TZ0.a

A small electric motor is used with a 12 mF capacitor and a battery in a school experiment.

When the switch is connected to X, the capacitor is charged using the battery. When the switch is connected to Y, the capacitor fully discharges through the electric motor that raises a small mass.

The battery has an emf of 7.5 V. Determine the charge that flows through the motor when the mass is raised.
