Answer:

number of electron transferred is 4.31\times 10^{11} electron

Explanation:

Given data:

Area of the parallel plate capacitor is

A = 0.051 × 0.051 m

Electric field for parallel capacitor is

E = \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon}

E =  \frac{Q}{A \epsilon}

Q = EA\epsilon

  = 3\times 10^{6} \times 0.0026 (8.854\times 10^{-12}})    [tex]= 6.90 \times 10^{-8}

   =69 \times 10^{-9}

C = 69 nC

  Q = ne

n = \frac{69 \times 10^{-9}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n = 4.31\times 10^{11}

therefore number of electron transferred is 4.31\times 10^{11} electron

Answer:

n=4.31\times 10^{11}              

Explanation:

It is given that,

Electric field due to the spark, E=3\times 10^6\ N/C

Dimensions of the parallel-plate capacitor is 5.1 cm × 5.1 cm.

The area of the parallel plate, A=26.01\ cm^2=0.002601\ m^2

The electric field due to the parallel plate capacitor is given by :

E=\dfrac{q}{A\epsilon_o}

q=EA\epsilon_o

q=3\times 10^6\times 0.002601\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}

q=6.90\times 10^{-8}\ C

Let n is the number of electrons that must transferred from one plate to the other to create a spark between the plates. It can be calculated as :

q=ne

n=\dfrac{q}{e}

n=\dfrac{6.90\times 10^{-8}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n=4.31\times 10^{11}

So, the number of electrons must be transferred from one plate to the other is 4.31\times 10^{11}. Hence, this is the required solution.

Helicopters rotor blades, could spin at high speed of 510 rpm. Find the angular displacement in radian for 3 hour(s) operation
malfutka [58]

Answer:

The angular displacement of the blade is 576,871.2 radians

Explanation:

Given;

angular speed of the Helicopters rotor blades, ω = 510 rpm (revolution per minute)

time of motion, t = 3 hours

The angular speed of the Helicopters rotor blades in radian per second is given as;

\omega = \frac{510 \ rev}{mins} *\frac{2 \pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} *\frac{1 \ min}{60 \ s}\\\\\omega =  53.414 \ rad/s

The angular displacement in radian is given as;

θ = ωt

where;

t is time in seconds

θ = (53.414)(3 x 60 x 60)\\

θ = 576,871.2 radians

Therefore, the angular displacement of the blade is 576,871.2 radians

Approximately how much air is in a column 1-cm2 in cross section that extends from sea level to the top of the atmosphere?
laila [671]

Approximately 101 N air is in a column 1-cm2 in cross-section that extends from sea level to the top of the atmosphere

The basic level for determining height and depth on Earth is the sea level. The ocean's surface tends to seek the same level since it is one continuous body of water. However, the sea level is never fully level due to winds, currents, river discharges, and changes in gravity and temperature.

At the equator, the radius of the Earth at sea level is 6378.137 km (3963.191 mi). At the poles, it is 6,356.752 km (3,949.903 km), and on average, it is 6,371.001 km (3,958.756 mi). The elevation of the shoreline—the boundary between the ocean and the land—is referred to as sea level. Land that is higher than this altitude is above sea level, and land that is lower is below sea level.
