It's been a while since I've studied this, but my answers would be:

13. 5730 years. The half-life of a substance is the amount of time it takes for half of it to decay, and, according to the graph, half of the substance remained at 5730 years.

14. 10740 years. According to the graph, only 25% of the carbon remained after 10740 years.

15. 15 atoms. According to the graph, only 12.5% of the carbon remained after 16110 years. 12.5% of 120 atoms is 15 atoms.

16. 1600 atoms. According to the graph, if a sample of carbon is 10740 years old, only 25% of it remains. To find the original amount, multiply the current amount by (100% / 25%), which equals 4. So, 4. 400 atoms * 4 = 1600 atoms is the original amount.

4. Derive the relation, P= hd g

Sergeu [11.5K]

p=F/A

or,P=d×V×G/A (m=d×V)

or,p= d× A×h×g/A (A and A are cut)

or,P=d×H×G

What is the maximum magnitude of charge that can be placed on each plate if the electric field in the region between the plates

34kurt

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

A parallel-plate capacitor has capacitance $C_{0}$ = 8.50 pF when there is air between the plates. The separation between the plates is 1.00 mm.

What is the maximum magnitude of charge that can be placed on each plate if the electric field in the region between the plates is not to exceed $3.00 \times 10^{4}$ V/m?

Explanation:

It is known that relation between electric field and the voltage is as follows.

V = Ed

Now,

Q = CV

or, Q = $C \times Ed$

Therefore, substitute the values into the above formula as follows.

Q = $C \times Ed$

= $8.50 pF \times (\frac{10^{-12} F}{1 pF})(3 \times 10^{4} m/s)(1 mm)(\frac{10^{-3} m}{1 mm})$

= $2.55 \times 10^{-10} C$

Hence, we can conclude that the maximum magnitude of charge that can be placed on each given plate is $2.55 \times 10^{-10} C$ .

Why does the evaporation of sweat cool down your skin?

Ne4ueva [31]

So sweat helps cool you down two ways. First, it makes your skin feel cooler when it's wet. And when it evaporates it removes some heat. But sweat will only evaporatoin an environment where there isn't much water in the air.
