<span>one year is 365, 1 day is 24 hours, 1 hour is 60 minutes, 60 minutes is 60 seconds, thus (365 * 24 * 60 * 60) = 31,536,000 one year is equal to 31,536,000 seconds. the plate has a speed of 4.8 cm every 31,536,000 seconds. lets find out how far it goes in 40 seconds. (4.8/31,536,000)*40 = 0.00000608828 The plate moves 0.00000608828 cm every 40 seconds</span>

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

please give me brainlist and follow

Explanation:

The measuring sensitivity of liquid-in-glass thermometers increases with the amount of liquid in the thermometer. The more liquid there is, the more liquid will expand and rise in the glass tube. For this reason, liquid thermometers have a reservoir to increase the amount of liquid in the thermometer.

Students in an introductory physics lab are performing an experiment with a parallel-plate capacitor made of two circular alumin
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

0.92 μC

Explanation:

In a parallel-plate capacitor, the electric field formed is equal to the charge density divited by the vacuum permisivity e0, as there are no dielectric between the plates. e0 is equal to 8.85*10^-12 C^2/Nm^2. The charge density is the total charge of each individual plate divided by its area. Then, the maximum charge allowed will be equal to:

E = \frac{o}{e_0} = \frac{Q}{Ae_0} \\ Q = E*A*e_0 = 3*10^6 N/C * (0.25*\pi *(0.21m)^2)*8.85*10^{-12}C^2/Nm^2 = 9.196 *10^{-7} C

or 0.92 μC
