The diameter of the disks is 1.32 cm.

If n electrons each of charge e are transferred from one disc to another, calculate the total charge Q transferred from one disc to the other using the expression,

Q=ne

Substitute 1.50×10⁹ for n and 1.6×10⁻¹⁹C for e.

Q=ne\\ =(1.50*10^9)(1.6*10^-^1^9C)\\ =2.4*10^-^1^0C

The potential difference V between the disks separated by a distance d is given by,

V=Ed

here, E is the electric field.

Substitute 2.00×10⁵N/C for E and 0.50×10⁻³m for d.

V=Ed\\ =(2.00*10^5N/C)(0.50*10^-^3m)\\ =100V

The capacitance C of the capacitor is given by,

C=\frac{Q}{V} \\ =\frac{(2.4*10^-^1^0C)}{100V} \\ =2.4*10^-^1^2F

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is given by,

C=\frac{\epsilon_0A}{d}

Here, ε₀ is the permittivity of free space  and A is the area of the disks.

Rewrite the expression for A.

C=\frac{\epsilon_0A}{d}\\ A=\frac{Cd}{\epsilon_0} \\ =\frac{(2.4*10^-^1^2F)(0.50*10^-^3m)}{(8.85*10^-^1^2C^2/Nm^2)} \\ =1.36*10^-^4m^3

the area A of the disks is given by,

A=\frac{\pi D^2}{4} \\ D=\sqrt{\frac{4A}{\pi } }

Here, D is the diameter of the disk.

D=\sqrt{\frac{4A}{\pi } }\\ =\sqrt{\frac{4(1.36*10^-^4m^2)}{3.14} } \\ =0.01316m\\ =1.32cm

The diameter of each disc is found to be 1.32 cm.

microwave ovens rotate at a rate of about 6.3 rev/min. what is this in revolutions per second? (you do not need to enter any uni
levacccp [35]

The microwave ovens rotate at a rate of about 0.105 rev/s.

The microwave rotation is the number of revolutions in a unit of time. To change the unit for angular velocity, assume that the quantity is multiplied by the unit it has. Then change to the desired units. The angular velocity is denoted by ω and has a magnitude of 6.3 rev/min.

ω = 6.3 rev/min

\omega = 6.3 \times \frac{1 \: rev}{1 \: min}

  • 1 minute = 60 seconds
  • The revolution unit didn't change

\omega = 6.3 \times \frac{1 \: rev}{60 \: seconds}

\omega = \frac{6.3 \: rev}{60 \: seconds}

ω = 0.105 rev/s

Factors that influence fluid pressure are depth and “ “<br> of the fluid.
Ivenika [448]

Explanation:

Two factors influence the pressure of fluids. They are the depth of the fluid and its density. A fluid exerts more pressure at greater depths. Deeper in a fluid, all of the fluid above it results in more weight pressing down.
