Answer:

<em>The penny will hit the ground at 6.39 seconds</em>

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall</u>

The penny is dropped from a height of y=200 m. The equation of the height on a free-fall motion is given by:

\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}

Where g=9.8\ m/s^2, and t is the time.

Solving for t:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

Using the value y=200:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2*200}{9.8}}

t=6.39 sec

The penny will hit the ground at 6.39 seconds

A certain parallel-plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric for which κ = 6.56. The area of each plate is 0.0830 m2, and the
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

4.86\times 10^{-7}\ J

Explanation:

Given:

Dielectric of the medium between the plates (k) = 6.56

Area of eac plate (A) = 0.0830 m²

Separation between the plates (d) = 1.95 mm = 0.00195 m [1 mm = 0.001 m]

Maximum electric field (E_{max}) = 202 kN/C = 202000 N/C [1 kN = 1000 N]

Permittivity of space (ε₀) = 8.854 × 10⁻¹² F/m

The maximum potential difference across the plates of the capacitor is given as:

V_{max}=E_{max}d\\\\V=(202000\ N/C)(0.00195\ m)\\\\V=393.9\ V

Now, capacitance of the capacitor is given as:

C=\dfrac{k\epsilon_0A}{d}\\\\C=\frac{6.56\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m\times 0.0830\ m^2}{0.00195\ m}\\\\C=2.47\times 10^{-9}\ F

The maximum energy stored in the capacitor is given as:

U_{max}=\frac{1}{2}CV_{max}^2\\\\U_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\times (2.47\times 10^{-9}\ F)\times  393.9\ V\\\\U_{max}=4.86\times 10^{-7}\ J

Therefore, the maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor is 4.86\times 10^{-7}\ J

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

P= -1.83D

Explanation:

Given,

u=-6 m

v=-50 cm = - 0.5 m

the power of the lens

P = 1/f = 1/v = 1/u

P = 1/ -0.50 + 1/6

P = -1.83D
