A parallel-plate air capacitor is made from two plates 0.210 m square, spaced 0.815 cm apart. it is connected to a 120 v battery

. if the plates are pulled apart to a separation of 1.63 cm , suppose the battery remains connected while the plates are pulled apart. part a what is the capacitance?

Answer:

at the beginning: 2.3\cdot 10^{-10} F

when the plates are pulled apart: 1.1\cdot 10^{-10} F

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by

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

where

k is the relative permittivity of the medium (for air, k=1, so we can omit it)

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the permittivity of free space

A is the area of the plates of the capacitor

d is the separation between the plates

In this problem, we have:

A=0.210 m^2 is the area of the plates

d=0.815 cm=8.15\cdot 10^{-3} m is the separation between the plates at the beginning

Substituting into the formula, we find

C=(1)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)\frac{0.210 m^2}{8.15\cdot 10^{-3} m}=2.3\cdot 10^{-10} F

Later, the plates are pulled apart to d=1.63 cm=0.0163 m, so the capacitance becomes

C=(1)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)\frac{0.210 m^2}{0.0163 m}=1.1\cdot 10^{-10} F

An engine takes in 200 J of heat, expels 40 J of heat, and does 160 J of work. What is the efficiency of the engine?
Reil [10]
The answer would be C. 80%
Put 160 over 200 and find the GCF
160/200÷40=4/5=80%

If a subway train is moving to the left (has a negative velocity) and then comes to a stop, what is the direction of its acceler
Katen [24]

Answer:

The acceleration would be positive, pointing to the right.

Explanation:

The acceleration tells us how velocity changes every second. If the train stops, this means its velocity must go from a non-zero value to zero.

To reduce velocity, acceleration must point to the opposite direction. Since velocity is negative, acceleration must be positive.

A motorbike travels 45 miles in 15 minutes, what is its speed (hint change the minutes to hours!!)
Flauer [41]

Answer:

180 miles/hr

Explanation:

15 min=1/4 hr

s= distance/time

s=45miles/1/4 hr

s=45miles x 4/1=180 miles/hr
