Fossil fuels are non-renewable resources and create greenhouse gases. While cheaper now to burn fossil fuels, within fifty years we will run out and have to turn to other sources of energy. Hope this helps!!!

Which of these best explains why people on Earth cannot see the entire shape of the Milky Way

BartSMP [9]

I believe the answer is A.

Since the Earth is in the Milky Way and not outside it, we cannot see the exact shape of it. Physicists have been able to track and graph the movements of the planets accurately for thousands of years, but that does not mean we know the shape of the entire solar system.<span />

Two parallel plates that are initially uncharged are separated by 1.7 mm, have only air between them, and each have surface area

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

$5.63\cdot 10^{-6} C$

Explanation:

The capacitor of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by:

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

where

A is the area of each plate

d is the separation between the plates

$\epsilon_0$ is the vacuum permittivity

The energy stored in a capacitor instead is given by

$U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2}{C}$

where

Q is the charge stored in each plate

Substituting the expression we found for C inside the last formula,

$U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2 d}{\epsilon_0 A}$

And re-arranging it

$Q=\sqrt{\frac{2U\epsilon_0 A}{d}}$

Now if we substitute

$d=1.7 mm=0.0017 m\\A=16 cm^2 = 16\cdot 10^{-4} m^2\\U = 1.9 J$

We find the charge stored on the capacitor:

$Q=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.9)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(16\cdot 10^{-4})}{0.0017}}=5.63\cdot 10^{-6} C$
