What happens is the potential value of the conductor decreases due to the presence of second conductor
as the capacitance is given by C = q/v
the value of v deceases as v-v1
thus the new capacitance is = C' = q/v-v1 thus the lowering of v increases the capacitance

An 85-kg refrigerator is located on the 70th floor of a skyscraper (4km above the ground ) what is the potential energy

Airida [17]

Potential energy can be calculated using the following rule:
potential energy = mgh where:
m is the mass = 85 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
h is the height = 4 km = 4000 meters

Substitute in the above equation to get the potential energy as follows:
Potential energy = 85*9.8*4000 = 3332000 joules

The information on a can of soda indicates that the can contains 355 mL. The mass of a full can of soda is 0.369 kg, while an em

Vilka [71]

Answer:

$\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}$

$\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}$

$s=0.9955$

Explanation:

Given:

volume of liquid content in the can, $v_l=0.355\ L=3.55\times 10^{-4}\ L$

mass of filled can, $m_f=0.369\ kg$

weight of empty can, $w_c=0.153\ N$

<u>So, mass of the empty can:</u>

$m_c=\frac{w_c}{g}$

$m_c=\frac{0.153}{9.81}$

$m_c=0.015596\ kg$

<u>Hence the mass of liquid(soda):</u>

$m_l=m_f-m_c$

$m_l=0.369-0.015596$

$m_l=0.3534\ kg$

<u>Therefore the density of liquid soda:</u>

$\rho=\frac{m_l}{v_l}$ (as density is given as mass per unit volume of the substance)

$\rho=\frac{0.3534}{3.55\times 10^{-4}}$

$\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}$

<u>Specific weight of the liquid soda:</u>

$\bar w=\frac{m_l.g}{v_l}=\rho.g$

$\bar w=995.5\times 9.81$

$\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}$

Specific gravity is the density of the substance to the density of water:

$s=\frac{\rho}{\rho_w}$

where:

$\rho_w=$ density of water

$s=\frac{995.5}{1000}$

$s=0.9955$

Calculate the energy of the green light emitted, per photon, by a mercury lamp with a frequency of 5.49 × 1014 hz.

Tcecarenko [31]

The energy of a photon is given by
$E=hf$
where
$h=6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js$ is the Planck constant
f is the frequency of the photon

In our problem, the frequency of the light is
$f=5.49 \cdot 10^{14}Hz$
therefore we can use the previous equation to calculate the energy of each photon of the green light emitted by the lamp:
$E=hf=(6.6 \cdot 10^{-34}Js)(5.49 \cdot 10^{14} Hz)=3.62 \cdot 10^{-19} J$

What must be the length of a simple pendulum if its oscillation frequency is to be equal to that of an air-track glider of mass

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

the length of the simple pendulum is 0.25 m.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the air-track glider, m = 0.25 kg

spring constant, k = 9.75 N/m

let the length of the simple pendulum = L

let the frequency of the air-track glider which is equal to frequency of simple pendulum = F

The oscillation frequency of air-track glider is calculated as;

$F = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\\F = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{9.75}{0.25} } \\\\F = 0.994 \ Hz$

The frequency of the simple pendulum is given as;

$F = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{g}{l} } \\\\2\pi(F) = \sqrt{\frac{g}{l} } \\\\2\pi (0.994) = \sqrt{\frac{9.8}{l} } \\\\6.2455 = \sqrt{\frac{9.8}{l} } \\\\(6.2455)2 = \frac{9.8}{l} \\\\39.006 = \frac{9.8}{l} \\\\l = \frac{9.8}{39.006} \\\\l = 0.25 \ m$

Thus, the length of the simple pendulum is 0.25 m.
