A spring with k = 500 N/m stores 704 J. How far is it extended from the equilibrium position

kaheart [24]

Given that:

k = 500 n/m,

work (W) = 704 J

spring extension (x) = ?

we know that,

Work = (1/2) k x²

704 = (1/2) × 500 × x²

x = 1.67 m

A spring stretched for 1.67 m distance.

Ultraviolet radiation is dangerous because it has a high enough energy to damage skin cells. UV radiation is called ultraviolet

BabaBlast [244]

Answer: smaller

Ultraviolet radiation has broad range of wavelengths, higher number means greater risk of exposure to UV rays that can be dangerous to skin cells. Sunlight is the main source of electromagnetic radiation and it is transmitted in different wavelengths known as electromagnetic spectrum. This spectrum is divided into several regions in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing energy and frequency. UV radiation has frequency and energy that is higher than purple light or violet radiation and the wavelength of ultraviolet radiation is smaller than violet radiation.

Answer:

A. $U_0 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}$

B. $U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{6d}$

C. $U_2 = \dfrac{K\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}$

Explanation:

The capacitance of a capacitor is its ability to store charges. For parallel-plate capacitors, this ability depends the material between the plates, the common plate area and the plate separation. The relationship is

$C=\dfrac{\epsilon A}{d}$

$C$ is the capacitance, $A$ is the common plate area, $d$ is the plate separation and $\epsilon$ is the permittivity of the material between the plates.

For air or free space, $\epsilon$ is $\epsilon_0$ called the permittivity of free space. In general, $\epsilon=\epsilon_r \epsilon_0$ where $\epsilon_r$ is the relative permittivity or dielectric constant of the material between the plates. It is a factor that determines the strength of the material compared to air. In fact, for air or vacuum, $\epsilon_r=1$ .

The energy stored in a capacitor is the average of the product of its charge and voltage.

$U = \dfrac{QV}{2}$

Its charge, $Q$ , is related to its capacitance by $Q=CV$ (this is the electrical definition of capacitance, a ratio of the charge to its voltage; the previous formula is the geometric definition). Substituting this in the formula for $U$ ,
