A parallel-plate capacitor initially has a potential difference of 400 V and is then disconnected from the charging battery. If

the plate spacing is now doubled (without changing Q), what is the new value of the voltage?

Damm [24]3 years ago

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.

A 1.50-m cylindrical rod of diameter 0.500 cm is connected to a power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of 1
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

a) 1.06*10^-5

b) 0.00105 °C^-1

Explanation:

Given that

Length of the cylinder, L = 1.5 m

Radius of the cylinder, r = 0.25 cm

Voltage across the rod, V = 15 V

I• at Temperature T• = 20° C is 18.5 A

I at Temperature T = 90° C is 17.2 A

Question 1<br> 2 pts<br> Explain what causes a solution to be a strong acid.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Cuanto más fuerte es el ácido, más rápido se disocia para generar H +start superscript, plus, end superscript. Por ejemplo, el ácido clorhídrico (HCl) se disocia completamente en iones hidrógeno y cloruro cuando se mezcla con agua, por lo que se considera un ácido fuerte.

Compare the planets Mars and Saturn. Describe how their common characteristics are similar and Compare the planets Earth and Nep
nordsb [41]

Question no. 1. Compare the planets Mars and Saturn. Describe how their common characteristics are similar:

Answer:  Our solar system is located in the outer spiral arm of the milky way galaxy. our solar system has one sun and nine revolving planets and . namely  

  1. Mercury
  2. Venus
  3. Earth
  4. Mars
  5. Jupiter
  6. Saturn
  7. Uranus
  8. Neptune
  9. Pluto (small planet usually refer as dwarf)

Each star has its on moon/moons and has its own characteristics i.e , planet must be a celestial body , must have orbit around sun, have enough mass for self gravity, big enough to have gravity that clear its path from other same size object close to its orbit around sun.

Mars is the fourth from the sun and sixth is the Saturn from the sun in our solar system.

<u>Common in Characteristics of Mars and Saturn:</u>

  • Mars and Saturn both have celestial body.
  • Mars and Saturn both have enough mass for the gravity to get rid of rigid body forces.
  • Mars and Saturn both revolve around the sun in their own orbits.
  • Mars is the second smallest in the solar system while Saturn is second largest in the solar system.
  • Mars and Saturn both have their own moons. Mars has two while Saturn has 83 moons
  • Mars and Neptune both do not support life.    

Question no. 2. Compare the planets Earth and Neptune. Describe how are they different from each other

Answer:

Earth our home planet is the third from the sun and Neptune on the other hand is the eighth from the sun in the solar system.

<u>Common differences between Earth and Neptune</u>

  • Earth is the terrestrial planet while Neptune (Ice giant) is the Jovian planet.
  • Earth has no ring around it, Neptune has ring around it.
  • Earth is closer to the sun and Neptune is far distant from the sun.
  • Earth consists of rocks and metals on the other hand Neptune contain gases
  • Earth is smaller than the Neptune in the solar system.
  • Earth rotates slower and Neptune rotates faster.

Example 3 :
kherson [118]

The friction factor and head loss when velocity is 1m/s is 0.289 and 1.80 × 10^8 respectively. Also, the friction factor and head loss when velocity is 3m/s is 0.096 and 5.3 × 10^8 respectively.

<h3>How to determine the friction factor</h3>

Using the formula

μ = viscosity = 0. 06 Pas

d =  diameter = 120mm = 0. 12m

V =  velocity = 1m/s and 3m/s

ρ = density = 0.9

a. Velocity = 1m/s

friction factor = 0. 52 × \frac{0. 06}{0. 12* 1* 0. 9}

friction factor = 0. 52 × \frac{0. 06}{0. 108}

friction factor = 0. 52 × 0. 55

friction factor = 0. 289

b. When V = 3mls

Friction factor = 0. 52 × \frac{0. 06}{0. 12 * 3* 0. 9}

Friction factor = 0. 52 × \frac{0. 06}{0. 324}

Friction factor = 0. 52 × 0. 185

Friction factor = 0.096

Loss When V = 1m/s

Head loss/ length = friction factor × 1/ 2g × velocity^2/ diameter

Head loss = 0. 289 × \frac{1}{2*6. 6743 * 10^-11} × \frac{1^2}{0. 120} × \frac{1}{100}

Head loss =  1. 80 × 10^8

Head loss When V = 3m/s

Head loss = 0. 096 × \frac{1}{1. 334 *10^-10} × \frac{3^2}{0. 120} × \frac{1}{100}

Head loss = 5. 3× 10^8

Thus, the friction factor and head loss when velocity is 1m/s is 0.289 and 1.80 ×10^8 respectively also, the friction factor and head loss  when velocity is 3m/s is 0.096 and 5.3 ×10^8 respectively.
