A paper filled capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 2.1 V and then disconnected from the charging circuit. The diel

ectric constant of the paper is 3.7. Keeping the plates insulated, the paper filling is withdrawn, allowing air to fill the capacitor instead. Find the resulting potential difference off the capacitor.
(volts)
While continuing to keep the capacitor's plates insulated, an unknown substance is inserted between them. The plates then attain a potential difference that is 0.59 times the original potential difference (when paper filled the capacitor). What is the substances dielectric constant?

Answer:

Part a)

V' = 7.77 Volts

Part b)

k' = 6.27

Explanation:

As we know that capacitor plate is connected across 2.1 V and after charging it is disconnected from the battery

So here we can say that charge on the plates will remain conserved

So we will have

Q = kC(2.1)

now dielectric is removed between the plates of capacitor

so new potential difference between the plates

V' = \frac{Q}{C'}

V' = \frac{kC(2.1)}{C}

V' = 3.7 \times 2.1

V' = 7.77 Volts

Part b)

Now the capacitor plates are again isolated and unknown dielectric is inserted between the plates

So again charge is same so potential difference is given as

V" = \frac{Q}{k'C}

0.59 V = \frac{kCV}{k'C}

0.59 = \frac{3.7}{k'}

k' = 6.27

A ball is dropped from a cliff. determine how far the ball fell after 7.5 seconds
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The ball fell 275.625 meters after 7.5 seconds

Explanation:

<u>Free fall </u>

If an object is left on free air (no friction), it describes an accelerated motion in the vertical direction, powered exclusively by the acceleration of gravity. The formulas needed to compute the different magnitudes involved are

V_f=gt

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

Where V_f is the final speed of the object in free fall, assumed positive downwards, t is the time elapsed since the release and y is the vertical distance traveled by the object

The ball was dropped from a cliff. We need to calculate the vertical distance the ball went down in t=7.5 seconds. We'll use the formula

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

\displaystyle y=\frac{(9.8)(7.5)^2}{2}

Y=275.625\ m

A violin string that is 50.0 cm long has a fundamental frequency of 440 Hz. What is the
amid [387]
For a standing wave on a string, the wavelength is equal to twice the length of the string:
\lambda=2 L
In our problem, L=50.0 cm=0.50 m, therefore the wavelength of the wave is
\lambda = 2 \cdot 0.50 m = 1.00 m

And the speed of the wave is given by the product between the frequency and the wavelength of the wave:
v=\lambda f = (1.00 m)(440 Hz)=440 m/s

A proton moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B with arrow at a speed of 2.50 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration
KIM [24]

Answer:

A) B = 0.009185 T

B) Drection is negative y-direction

Explanation:

A) We are given;

Speed(v) = 2.5 x 10^(7) m/s

Acceleration (a) = 2.2 x 10^(13) m/s²

We also know that charge of proton(q) = 1.6 x 10^(-19)

Mass of proton(m) = 1.67 x 10^(-27)

Now, Since the proton is moving by circular motion, this force is equal to the centripetal force which is given as;

F = qvBsinθ = ma

Since perpendicular, θ = 90°

And so, sinθ = sin 90 = 1

Thus, qvB = ma

Making B the subject gives;

B = ma/qv

B = (1.67 X 10^(-27) X 2.2 X 10^13)) / (1.6 X 10^(-19) X 2.5 X 10^(7))

= 0.009185 T

B) By use of Flemings right hand rule, we can see that the middle finger points toward negative y-direction, so the magnetic field is in the negative y-direction
