Answer:
U₁ = (ϵAV²)/6d
This means that the new energy of the capacitor is (1/3) of the initial energy before the increased separation.
Explanation:
The energy stored in a capacitor is given by (1/2) (CV²)
Energy in the capacitor initially
U = CV²/2
V = voltage across the plates of the capacitor
C = capacitance of the capacitor
But the capacitance of a capacitor depends on the geometry of the capacitor is given by
C = ϵA/d
ϵ = Absolute permissivity of the dielectric material
A = Cross sectional Area of the capacitor
d = separation between the capacitor
So,
U = CV²/2
Substituting for C
U = ϵAV²/2d
Now, for U₁, the new distance between plates, d₁ = 3d
U₁ = ϵAV²/2d₁
U₁ = ϵAV²/(2(3d))
U₁ = (ϵAV²)/6d
This means that the new energy of the capacitor is (1/3) of the initial energy before the increased separation.
They point towards a negative charge.
They point away from a positive charge.
They never cross.
Answer: A. 2.0m above ground
Explanation:
Height of the pitcher from the floor of his mound = 1.8m
Height of the mound above the rest of the field = 0.2m
Since the height difference between the mound and the ground the catcher stands on = 0.2m and the pitcher throws the ball horizontally, then the catcher has to hold his glove at (1.8 + 0.2)m
above ground.
= 2.0m above ground (option A)
Answer:
A) continuing search for new knowledge
Explanation:
Science has always been about discovery and gaining knowledge
Explanation:
Given that,
Force acting on the child, F = 310 N
Length of the ropes, d = 2.1 m
We need to find the gravitational potential energy of the child–Earth system relative to the child's lowest position when the ropes are horizontal. The potential energy is simply given by :

Hence, this is the required solution.
