Answer:
The potential between the plates will decrease.
Explanation:
An insulator is usually placed between the parallel plates and is also called a dielectric because it makes the amount of charge a capacitor can accommodate to increase at a particular potential difference.
Furthermore, the dielectric effect will make the electric field of the charged capacitor which is not connected to a source of supply to decrease.
Now, when the battery is removed, the charge Q remains constant and Capacity C will increase.
Formula for the potential difference is here;
V = Q/C
Since the numerator Q is constant and the denominator C increases, it means the potential difference V will decrease
Answer: a) 127 eV; b) there is no change of kinetic energy.
Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the change of potentail energy ( conservative field) is equal to changes in kinetic energy. So for the proton ther move to lower potential then they gain kinetic energy from the electric field. This means the electric force do work in this trayectory and then the protons increased changes its speed.
If we replace the proton by a electron we have a very different situaction, the electrons are located in a lower potental then they can not move to higher potential if any external force does work on the system.
In resumem, the electrons do not move from a point with V=87 to other point with V=-40 V. The electric force point to high potential so the electrons can not move to lower potential region (V=-40V).
Answer: Heat energy is transferred from warmer objects to cooler objects.
