Answer:

The extension of the refracted rays will intersect at a point. This point is known as the focal point. Notice that a diverging lens such as this double concave lens does not really focus the incident light rays that are parallel to the principal axis; rather, it diverges these light rays.

Before a cell enters mitosis, what happens to the genetic information in that cell?

trasher [3.6K]

Before a cell could undergo to the process of mitosis, the cell will have to undergo first to the stage of interphase. Where it will need to pass though three stages where it will prepare before it could undergo to cell division. The cell will most likely pass to G1, S and G2 phase for it to be checked and prepared before it passes through the mitosis.

There is a parallel plate capacitor. Both plates are 4x2 cm and are 10 cm apart. The top plate has surface charge density of 10C

liberstina [14]

Answer:

1) The total charge of the top plate is 0.008 C

b) The total charge of the bottom plate is -0.008 C

2) The electric field at the point exactly midway between the plates is 0

3) The electric field between plates is approximately 1.1294 × 10¹² N/C

4) The force on an electron in the middle of the two plates is approximately 1.807 × 10⁻⁷ N

Explanation:

The given parameters of the parallel plate capacitor are;

The dimensions of the plates = 4 × 2 cm

The distance between the plates = 10 cm

The surface charge density of the top plate, σ₁ = 10 C/m²

The surface charge density of the bottom plate, σ₂ = -10 C/m²

The surface area, A = 0.04 m × 0.02 m = 0.0008 m²

1) The total charge of the top plate, Q = σ₁ × A = 0.0008 m² × 10 C/m² = 0.008 C

b) The total charge of the bottom plate, Q = σ₂ × A = 0.0008 m² × -10 C/m² = -0.008 C

2) The electrical field at the point exactly midway between the plates is given as follows;

$V_{tot} = V_{q1} + V_{q2}$

$V_q = \dfrac{k \cdot q}{r}$

Therefore, we have;

The distance to the midpoint between the two plates = 10 cm/2 = 5 cm = 0.05 m

$V_{tot} = \dfrac{k \cdot q}{0.05} + \dfrac{k \cdot (-q)}{0.05} = \dfrac{k \cdot q}{0.05} - \dfrac{k \cdot q}{0.05} = 0$

The electric field at the point exactly midway between the plates, $V_{tot}$ = 0

3) The electric field, 'E', between plates is given as follows;

$E =\dfrac{\sigma }{\epsilon_0 } = \dfrac{10 \ C/m^2}{8.854 \times 10^{-12} \ C^2/(N\cdot m^2)} \approx 1.1294 \times 10^{12}\ N/C$

E ≈ 1.1294 × 10¹² N/C

The electric field between plates, E ≈ 1.1294 × 10¹² N/C

4) The force on an electron in the middle of the two plates

The charge on an electron, e = -1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

The force on an electron in the middle of the two plates, $F_e$ = E × e

∴ $F_e$ = 1.1294 × 10¹² N/C × -1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C ≈ 1.807 × 10⁻⁷ N

The force on an electron in the middle of the two plates, $F_e$ ≈ 1.807 × 10⁻⁷ N
