To calculate MA = force needed/force used
Example
MA = 60/30 = 2
The mechanical advantage is 2

A parallel-plate capacitor with plates of area 360 cm2 is charged to a potential difference V and is then disconnected from the

Softa [21]

Answer:

$Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C$

Explanation:

We are given that a parallel- plate capacitor is charged to a potential difference V and then disconnected from the voltage source.

1 m =100 cm

Surface area =S= $\frac{360}{10000}=0.036 m^2$

$\Delta d=0.8 cm=0.008 m$

$\Delta V=100 V$

We have to find the charge Q on the positive plates of the capacitor.

V=Initial voltage between plates

d=Initial distance between plates

Initial Capacitance of capacitor

$C=\frac{\epsilon_0 S}{d}$

Capacitance of capacitor after moving plates

$C_1=\frac{\epsilon_0 S}{(d+\Delta d)}$

$V=\frac{Q}{C}$

Potential difference between plates after moving

$V=\frac{Q}{C_1}$

$V+\Delta V=\frac{Q}{C_1}$

$\frac{Qd}{\epsilon_0S}+100=\frac{Q(d+\Delta d)}{\epsilon_0S}$

$\frac{Q(d+\Delta d)}{\epsilon_0 S}-\frac{Qd}{\epsilon_0S}=100$

$\frac{Q\Delta d}{\epsilon_0 S}=100$

$\epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12}$

$Q=\frac{100\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.036}{0.008}$

$Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C$

Hence, the charge on positive plate of capacitor= $Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C$

This is an example of which scientific practice?

pshichka [43]

The example of the scientific practice is missing here but it should always involve the application of the scientific method.

<h3>What is the scientific method?</h3>

The scientific method is a series of steps by which researchers can collect empirical evidence that enables them to test hypotheses and generate scientific theories.

The scientific method starts with the observation of a given phenomenon from the real world, which then enables the raising of a question that in turn enables the formulation of a plausible explanation called hypothesis.

In conclusion, the example of the scientific practice is missing here but it should always involve the application of the scientific method.

A gas is compressed from an initial volume of 5.75 L to a final volume of 1.23 L by an external pressure of 1.00 atm. During the

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

<em>The internal energy change is 330.01 J</em>

Explanation:

Given

$v_{1}$ the initial volume = 5.75 L

$v_{2}$ the final volume = 1.23 L

$P_{e}$ is the external pressure = 1.00 atm

q the heat energy removed = -128 J (since is removed from the system)

expansion against a constant external pressure is an example of an irreversible pathway, here pressure in is greater than pressure out and can be obtained thus;

W = - $P_{e}$ ΔV

W = -1.00 x(1.23 - 5.75)

W = -1.00 x -4.52

W = 4.52 L atm

converting to joules we have

W = 4.52 L atm x 101.33 J/ L atm = 458.01 J

The internal energy change during compression can be calculated thus;

ΔU = q + W

ΔU = -128 J + 458.01 J

ΔU = 330.01 J

Therefore the internal energy change is 330.01 J
