A toaster is plugged into a 120-volt household circuit. It draws 5 amps of

1 answer:

6 0

A. Resistance R is a fraction of voltage over current:
$R=\frac{U}{I}=\frac{120V}{5A}=24Ohm$

b. The power of the toaster P is a multiplication of voltage:
$P=U*I=120V*5A=600W$

c. 1 kW = 1000W then:
$P_{kW}=0,6kW$

An air-gap, parallel plate capacitor with area A and gap width d is connected to a battery that maintains the plates at potentia

sergejj [24]

Answer:

The new potential energy decreases by the factor of 2 to the old potential energy.

Explanation:

Capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is given by the relation :

C = (ε₀A)/d

Here ε₀ is vacuum permittivity, A is area of the capacitor plate and d is the distance between them.

Potential energy of the capacitor, U = $\frac{1}{2}CV^{2}$

Here V is the potential difference between the plates.

According to the problem, the distance between the plates get double but area remains same. So,

d₁ = 2d

Here d₁ is new distance between the plates.

Hence, new capacitance is :

C₁ = (ε₀A)/d₁ = (ε₀A)/2d = C/2

The capacitor have same potential difference that is V. Hence, the new potential energy is :

U₁ = $\frac{1}{2}C_{1} V^{2}$ = $\frac{1}{2}\frac{C}{2} V^{2}$

U₁ = U/2

$\frac{U_{1} }{U} = \frac{1}{2}$
