Two parallel conducting plates are connected to a constant voltage source. The magnitude of the electric field between the plate

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The magnitude of the new electric field is 35820 N/C.

Explanation:

Given:

Original magnitude of electric field (E₀) = 2388 N/C

Original voltage = 'V' (Assume)

Original separation between the plates = 'd' (Assume)

Now, new voltage is three times original voltage. So, $V_n=3V$

New distance is 1/5 the original distance. So, $d_n=\dfrac{d}{5}$

Now, electric field between the parallel plates originally is given as:

$E_0=\frac{V}{d}=2388\ N/C$

Let us find the new electric field based on the above formula.

$E_n=\frac{V_n}{d_n}\\\\E_n=\frac{3V}{\frac{d}{5}}\\\\E_n=15(\frac{V}{d})$

Now, $\frac{V}{d}=2388\ N/C$ . So,

$E_n=15\times 2388=35820\ N/C$

Therefore, the magnitude of the new electric field is 35820 N/C.

A paintball is fired horizontally from a tower 45 m above the ground. If the paintball gun fires at 90 m/s… How long does it tak

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The time taken for the paint ball to hit the ground is $t = 2.143 \ s$

The distance of the landing point from the tower is $d = 192.86 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height of the tower is $h = 45 \ m$

The speed of the paintball in the horizontal direction is $v_x = 90 \ m/s$

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

$h = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Here u is the initial velocity of the paintball in the vertical direction and the value is 0 m/s , this because the ball was fired horizontally

a is equivalent to $g = 9.8\ m/s^2$

t is the time taken for the paintball to hit the ground

$45 = 0* t + \frac{1}{2} 9.8 * t^2$

=> $t = 2.143 \ s$

Generally the distance of its landing position from the tower is

$d = v * t$

=> $d = 90 * 2.143$

=> $d = 192.86 \ m$

During a breath, the average human lung expands by about 0.50 l. part a if this expansion occurs against an external pressure of

saveliy_v [14]

Work, in thermodynamics, is the amount of energy that is transferred from one system to another system without transfer of entropy. It is equal to the external pressure multiplied by the change in volume of the system. It is expressed as follows:

W = PdV

Integrating and assuming that P is not affected by changes in V or it is constant, then we will have:

W = P (V2 - V1)

Substituting the given values:
P = 1.0 atm = 101325 Pa
(V2 - V1) = 0.50 L =
W = 101325 N/m^3 ( 0.50) (1/1000) m^3
W = 50.66 N-m or 50.66 J

So, in the expansion process about 50.66 J of work is being done.
