The capacitance of a capacitor is the ratio of the stored charge to its potential difference, i.e.
C = Q/ΔV
C is the capacitance
Q is the stored charge
ΔV is the potential difference
Rearrange the equation:
ΔV = Q/C
We also know the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by:
C = κε₀A/d
C is the capacitance
κ is the capacitor's dielectric constant
ε₀ is the electric constant
A is the area of the plates
d is the plate separation
If we substitute C:
ΔV = Qd/(κε₀A)
We assume the stored charge and the area of the plates don't change. Then if we double the plate spacing, i.e. we double the value of d, then the potential difference ΔV is also doubled.
For this problem, we would be using the formula: Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2ad
where:
Vf = 400m/s
Vi = 300m/s
a = ?
d = 4.0km
= 4000m
400^2 = 300^2 + 2a4000
a = [ 160000 - 90000 ] / 8000
a = 8.75m/s^2
rounding it off to 2 significant figures, will give us 8.8 m/s^2.
Answer:
refraction
Explanation: hope this helps :)
Answer:
The answer is a wedge.
Explanation:
The wedge is a combination of two inclined planes. It is used to separate bodies which are held together by large forces, e.g, splitting timber
M.A.= slant height of wedge/thickness of wedge.
Hence a long thin wedge has a higher mechanical advantage than a short thick one; or the smaller the angle theta between the slant heights, the greater the mechanical advantage.
