A parallel-plate capacitor connected to a battery becomes fully charged. After the capacitor from the battery is disconnected, t

he separation between the plates of the capacitor is doubled in such a way that no charge leaks off. How is the energy stored in the capacitor affected? A.) The energy stored in the capacitor quadruples its original value. B.) The energy stored in the capacitor remains constant. C.)The energy stored in the capacitor doubles its original value. D.)The energy stored in the capacitor is decreased to one-fourth of its original value. E.)The energy stored in the capacitor is decreased to one-half of its original value

Answer:

C.)The energy stored in the capacitor doubles its original value.

Explanation:

The capacitance of a capacitor is given by:

C₁ = ∈A/d...............................(1)

If the distance between the plates is doubled

C₂ = ∈A/2d.............................(2a)

From equations (1) and (2), the relationship between C₁ and C₂ is:

C₂ = C₁/2....................................(2b)

The original  Energy stored in the capacitor is given by :

E₁ = Q²/2C₁...............................(3)

On doubling the separation between the capacitance plates

E₂ = Q²/2C₂...............................(4a)

E₂ = Q²/2  *  1/C₂........................(4b)

Putting equation (2b) into (4b)

E₂ = Q²/2  *  2/C₁

E₂ = Q²/C₁.....................................(5)

Comparing equations (3) and (5)

E₂ = 2E₁

Therefore, the energy stored in the capacitor doubles its original value

Desde el punto A sale un vehículo a 80 km/h al mismo tiempo sale un ciclista a 20km/h ¿a qué distancia se encuentra uno del otro
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Distance between them after 5 hours is 300 km.

Explanation:

From point A a vehicle leaves at 80 km / h at the same time a cyclist leaves at 20 km / h at what distance is they from each other after 5 hours.

Distance traveled by A in 5 hours = speed x time = 80 x 5 = 400 km

Distance traveled by B in 5 hours = speed x time = 20 x 5 = 100 km

The distance between them after 5 hours =  400 - 100 = 300 km

In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 3.0-m-tall, 5.0-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their b
lesya692 [45]

Answer:2.55 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

Diameter of ride=5 m

radius(r)=2.5 m

Static friction coefficient range=0.60-1

Here Frictional force will balance weight

And limiting  frictional force is provided by Centripetal force

f=\mu N=\mu m\omega ^2\cdot r

weight of object=mg

Equating two

f=mg

\mu m\omega ^2\cdot r=mg

\omega ^2=\frac{g}{\mu r}

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{g}{\mu r}}

\omega =2.55 rad/sec

In a food chain, which trophic level contains the greatest amount of energy?
evablogger [386]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. In a food chain. it is the producers trophic level that contains <span>the greatest amount of energy since it is the very start of the chain. Most of the energy are being stored and passed to the next organism. Hope this answers the question.</span>

The temperature inside a vehicle can rise ____ degrees higher than the outside temperature.
Elis [28]

Answer:

Generally, 40 to 50 degrees

Explanation:

About the heat-up over time, whether the windows of a vehicle are locked or partially open makes very little difference. In both situations, in an internal temperature of a vehicle, even at an outside temperature of only 72 ° F, it may exceed approximately 40 ° F within one hour. This happens mainly due to the greenhouse effect that is the heat inside the car is trapped and not allowed to escape. Thus, raising the temperature of the vehicle.

a light bulb has a resistance of 360 . what is the current in the bulb when it has a potential difference of 120 v across it? 0.
xenn [34]
Presume we are looking for the current:

V = IR

120 = I*360

120/360 = I

1/3 = I

I = 1/3 = 0.333..

Current ≈ 0.33 Ampere.
