The sum of the charges on both plates of a capacitor is zero. What does a capacitor store?

1 answer:

4 0

Current is the overall flow of electrons through a conductor and can be defined as the speed of the flow of electrons. Resistance is defined as the opposition to current flow. Circuits must have resistance to convert electrical energy into light, heat, or motion. Resistance is called the directional movement of electrons that form an electric current. It is also known that electrons do not move freely in the crystal structure of a conductor. Resistance is the inherent opposition to the flow of electrons present in a conductor. Inductance is the property of any circuit to resist any change in current while capacitance is the property of the circuit to resist any change in voltage.

<h3>What is capacitor?</h3>

A capacitor is an electronic component that stores an electrical charge. Capacitors consist of two close conductors (usually plates) separated by a dielectric material. The plates accumulate an electrical charge when connected to a power source. The main purpose of a capacitor is to store electrostatic energy in an electric field and, if possible, to supply this energy to an electrical circuit.

To avoid dangerous circuit failure, they allow alternating current to flow but block direct current. Capacitors are widely used as circuit elements in many common electrical devices. Commercial capacitors are made of interwoven metal foils with paraffin or Mylar-impregnated paper as the dielectric.

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

$I=2.6363\ kg.m^2$

Explanation:

Given:

dimension of uniform plate, $(0.673\times 0.535)\ m^2$

mass of plate, $m=10.7\ kg$

Now we find the moment of inertia about the center of mass of the rectangular plate is given as:

$I_{cm}=\frac{1}{12} \times m(L^2+B^2)$

where:

$L=$ length of the plate

$B=$ breadth of the plate

$I_{cm}=\frac{1}{12} \times 10.7\times(0.673^2+0.535^2)$

$I_{cm}=0.6591\ kg.m^2$

We know that the center of mass of the rectangular plane is at its geometric center which is parallel to the desired axis XX' .

Now we find the distance between the center of mass and the corner:

$s=\frac{\sqrt{ (0.673^2+0.535^2)}}{2}$

$s=0.4299\ m$

Now using parallel axis theorem:

$I=I_{cm}+m.s^2$

$I=0.6591+10.7\times 0.4299^2$

$I=2.6363\ kg.m^2$

A quantity that has direction as well as size is a scalar.<br><br><br> True or False

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

A quantity that does not depend on the direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude, and a direction. Scalar quantities have only a magnitude. When comparing two vector quantities of the same type, you have to compare both the magnitude and the direction.

Scalar quantities only have magnitude (size). Scalar quantities include distance...

A quantity that is specified by both size and direction is a vector. Displacement includes both size and direction and is an example of a vector. However, distance is a physical quantity that does not include a direction and isn't a vector.

Explanation:

hope this helps...
