The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor in vacuum is given by
C= \frac{A \epsilon_0}{d}
where
A is the area of each plate
d is the separation between the plates
\epsilon_0 = 8.85 \cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the electric permittivity in vacuum

For the capacitor in our problem, the plates are circular, with a diameter of d=4.0 cm, so their radius is r=2.0 cm=0.02 m and their area is
A=\pi r^2 =\pi (0.02 m)^2 = 1.26 \cdot 10^{-3} m^2
while the separation between the plates is
d=0.50 mm=5 \cdot 10^{-4} m

Therefore the capacitance is
C= \frac{A\epsilon_0 }{d}= \frac{(1.26 \cdot 10^{-3} m^2)(8.85 \cdot 10^{-12} F/m)}{5 \cdot 10^{-4}m}=2.23 \cdot 10^{-11}F

A block with mass 0.5 kg is forced against a horizontal spring of negligible mass, compressing the spring a distance of 0.2 m. W
lianna [129]

Answer:

So coefficient of kinetic friction will be equal to 0.4081

Explanation:

We have given mass of the block m = 0.5 kg

The spring is compressed by length x = 0.2 m

Spring constant of the sprig k = 100 N/m

Blocks moves a horizontal distance of s = 1 m

Work done in stretching the spring is equal to W=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 100\times 0.2^2=2J

This energy will be equal to kinetic energy of the block

And this kinetic energy must be equal to work done by the frictional force

So \mu mg\times s=2

\mu\times  0.5\times 9.8\times 1=2

\mu =0.4081

So coefficient of kinetic friction will be equal to 0.4081

4. How much force is required to stop a 60 kg person traveling at 30 m/s during a time of a)
11111nata11111 [884]

Explanation:

F = ma, and a = Δv / Δt.

F = m Δv / Δt

Given: m = 60 kg and Δv = -30 m/s.

a) Δt = 5.0 s

F = (60 kg) (-30 m/s) / (5.0 s)

F = -360 N

b) Δt = 0.50 s

F = (60 kg) (-30 m/s) / (0.50 s)

F = -3600 N

c) Δt = 0.05 s

F = (60 kg) (-30 m/s) / (0.05 s)

F = -36000 N

Listed following are three possible models for the long-term expansion (and possible contraction) of the universe in the absence
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

1. Recollapsing universe

2. Critical universe

3. Coasting universe

Explanation:

Recollapsing universe has dark matter density greater than critical density. While critical universe has its matter density equal to the critical sensity. Coasting universe on the other hand has much smaller matter density compared to critical density.

Note that the critical density is approximately 10^-20 grams/cm3

If the 250 kg bumper car that you are riding in hits another bumper car that is sitting still while driving 3.5 m/s, how much fo
Vilka [71]

Answer:

875 N

Explanation:

From this question, you didn't state the time taken for the bumper car to move or to hit the other bumper car. In calculations of force, time is often needed, because

Force = mass * acceleration, while

Acceleration = velocity / time, basically

Force = mass * velocity / time.

We have our mass, we have our velocity, but we haven't time. So, for this calculation, I'd assume our time to be 1s.

Going by the formula I stated, we can then say that

Force = 250 * 3.5 / 1

Force = 875 N

This means the force my bumper car have while moving at 3.5 m/s for an estimated time of 1s is 875 N

A skateboarder, starting from rest, rolls down a 12.8-m ramp. When she arrives at the bottom of the ramp her speed is 8.89 m/s.
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

a) a = 3.09 m/s²

b) aₓ = 2.60 m/s²

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of her acceleration can be calculated using the following equation:

V_{f}^{2} = V_{0}^{2} + 2ad

<u>Where</u>:

V_{f}: is the final speed = 8.89 m/s

V_{0}: is the initial speed = 0 (since she starts from rest)

a: is the acceleration

d: is the distance = 12.8 m    

a = \frac{V_{f}^{2}}{2d} = \frac{(8.89 m/s)^{2}}{2*12.8 m} = 3.09 m/s^{2}

Therefore, the magnitude of her acceleration is 3.09 m/s².              

b) The component of her acceleration that is parallel to the ground is given by:

a_{x} = a*cos(\theta)

<u>Where</u>:

θ: is the angle respect to the ground = 32.6 °

a_{x} = 3.09 m/s^{2}*cos(32.6) = 2.60 m/s^{2}

Hence, the component of her acceleration that is parallel to the ground is 2.60 m/s².

I hope it helps you!
