A battery establishes a voltage V on a parallel-plate capacitor. After the battery is disconnected, the distance between the pla

tes is doubled without loss of charge. Accordingly:_____.
a. stay same
b. increases
c. decreases
d. the capacitance decreases and the voltage between the plates increases.

Answer:

d.

Explanation:

Since, the capacitance( decreases )

therefore voltage between the plates(increases ).

Hence, option d is correct.

C =εA/d.

d is doubled, therefore C decrease ( inverse relation).

What is the tangential velocity of a record player which makes 11 revolutions in 20 seconds?

slava [35]

Answer:

The tangential velocity of a rotating object is:

v = r*w

where r is the radius, and w is the angular velocity.

w = 2*pi*f

where f is the frequency.

We know that the record plater does 11 revolutions in 20 seconds, then it does:

11 rev/20s = 0.55 rev/s = f

then we have:

w = 2*pi*0.55 s^-1 = 2*3.14*0.55 s^-1 = 3.454 s^-1

The radius of a record player is really variable, it is around 10 inches, so i will use r = 10in, which is the rotating part of the record player.

then the tangential velocity is:

v = 10in*3.454 s^-1 = 34.54 in/s

Answer the following in 1-2 complete sentences:

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The graph with a more steeper slope

Explanation:

If the x axis represented time and the y axis represented speed the steeper the slope the more faster something was moving in a shorter amount of time. On the other hand a less steeper slope means an object is gradually picking up speed in a longer amount of time thus makeing it slower

An ancient club is found that contains 100 g of pure carbon and has an activity of 6.5 decays per second. Determine its age assu

never [62]

Answer:

The age of living tree is 11104 years.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of pure carbon = 100 g

Activity of this carbon is = 6.5 decays per second = 6.5 x60 decays/min =390 decays/m

We need to calculate the decay rate

$R=\dfrac{-dN}{dt}=\lambda N=\dfrac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}N$ ....(I)

Where, N = number of radio active atoms

$t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ =half life

We need to calculate the number of radio active atoms

For $N_{12_{c}}$

$N_{12_{c}}=\dfrac{N_{A}}{M}$

Where, $N_{A}$ =Avogadro number

$N_{12_{c}}=\dfrac{6.02\times10^{23}}{12}$

$N_{12_{c}}=5.02\times10^{22}\ nuclie/g$

For $N_{c_{14}}$

$N_{c_{14}}=1.30\times10^{-12}N_{12_{c}}$

$N_{c_{14}}=1.30\times10^{-12}\times5.02\times10^{22}$

$N_{c_{14}}=6.526\times10^{10}\ nuclei/g$

Put the value in the equation (I)

$R=\dfrac{0.693\times6.526\times10^{10}\times60}{5700\times3.16\times10^{7}}$

$R=15.0650\ decay/min g$

100 g carbon will decay with rate

$R=100\times15.0650=1507\ decay/min$

We need to calculate the total half lives

$(\dfrac{1}{2})^{n}=\dfrac{390}{1507}$

$2^n=\dfrac{1507}{390}$

$2^n=3.86$

$n ln 2=ln 3.86$

$n=\dfrac{ln 3.86}{ln 2}$

$n =1.948$

We need to calculate the age of living tree

Using formula of age

$t=n\times t_{\frac{1}{2}}$

$t=1.948\times5700$

$t=11103.6 =11104\ years$

Hence, The age of living tree is 11104 years.

What evidence (data) would support the claim that an increase inhuman population contributes to the emission of greenhouse gases

Natali [406]

Hey there!

The answer would be D. 10 countries with the largest populations are the countries that produce the most greenhouse gases.

This is the only statements that supports the idea of large populations affecting the emissions of greenhouse gases.

Hope this helps!
