Answer:

aaksj

Explanation:

a) the capacitance is given of a plate capacitor is given by:

C = \epsilon_0*(A/d)

Where \epsilon_0 is a constant that represents the insulator between the plates (in this case air, \epsilon_0 = 8.84*10^(-12) F/m), A is the plate's area and d is the distance between the plates. So we have:

The plates are squares so their area is given by:

A = L^2 = 0.19^2 = 0.0361 m^2

C = 8.84*10^(-12)*(0.0361/0.0077) = 8.84*10^(-12) * 4.6883 = 41.444*10^(-12) F

b) The charge on the plates is given by the product of the capacitance by the voltage applied to it:

Q = C*V = 41.444*10^(-12)*120 = 4973.361 * 10^(-12) C = 4.973 * 10^(-9) C

c) The electric field on a capacitor is given by:

E = Q/(A*\epsilon_0) = [4.973*10^(-9)]/[0.0361*8.84*10^(-12)]

E = [4.973*10^(-9)]/[0.3191*10^(-12)] = 15.58*10^(3) V/m

d) The energy stored on the capacitor is given by:

W = 0.5*(C*V^2) = 0.5*[41.444*10^(-12) * (120)^2] = 298396.8*10^(-12) = 0.298 * 10 ^6 J

Answer:

a. C=2.18*10^{-10}F

b. Q=2.62*10^{-8}C

c. E= 15584V/m

d. energy=3.14*10^{-2}J

Explanation:

The question give:

  • Area: A=0.190m^{2}
  • separated distance: d=0.770cm, d=0.0077m
  • and voltage:  V=120volts
  • E_{0} =8.854*10^{-12}C^{2}/Nm^{2}

a. To find the capacitance we can use

     C=\frac{E_{0}A }{d}     since we have d A and E_{0}, where

    C=8.854*10^{-12}C^{2}/Nm^{2}*0.190m^{2}/0.0077m

    C=2.18*10^{-10}F

b.To find charge we have to use:

   Q=CV   since

   Q=(2.18*10^{-10}F)*(120v)

   Q=2.62*10^{-8}C

c. To find electric field between the plates, that is potential difference between two plates:

    E= \frac{V}{d}    E= \frac{120}{0.0077}  

    E= 15584V/m

d.To find energy stored in the capacitor:

 we can use

 energy=\frac{1}{2}CV^{2}

energy=(2.18*10^{-10}F *120^{2})/2

energy=3.14*10^{-2}J

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, what do you need to do
Alexxandr [17]

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, then you need to do extra work than the earlier

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

The total amount of energy transferred when a force is applied to move an object through some distance

Work Done = Force * Displacement

For example, let us suppose a force of 10 N is used to displace an object by a displacement of 5 m then the work done on the object can be calculated by the above-mentioned formula

work done = 10 N ×5 m

                 =50 N m

Thus, when an object's mass is increased and it is desired to move it a certain distance, more work must be done than previously.

a block of wood has a length of 4 cm a width of 5 cm and a height of 10 cm what is the volume of the wood
geniusboy [140]

Volume= Length X width X height.

Plug in the values for each and solve for the volume.

V= (L)(W)(H)

V=(4cm)(5cm)(10cm).
