Two parallel plates have equal and opposite charges. When the space between the plates is evacuated, the electric field is E= 3.
svetlana [45]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     Electric field between plates without dielectric, E_{1} = 3.50 \times 10^{5} V/m

   Electric field between the plates with dielectric, E_{2} = 2.40 \times 10^{5} V/m.

  Permittivity of free space, \epsilon_{o} = 8.85 \times 10^{-12} C^{2}/Nm^{2}

Now, we will determine the charge density as follows.

            \sigma_{i} = \epsilon_{o}(E_{1} - E_{2})

                 = 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times (3.50 \times 10^{5} - 2.40 \times 10^{5})

                 = 9.735 \times 10^{-7} C/m^{2}

Thus, we can conclude that the charge density on each surface of the dielectric is 9.735 \times 10^{-7} C/m^{2}.

An capacitor consists of two large parallel plates of area A separated by a very small distance d. This capacitor is connected t
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Will be doubled.

Explanation:

For a capacitor of parallel plates of area A, separated by a distance d, such that the charges in the plates are Q and -Q, the capacitance is written as:

C = \frac{Q}{V}  = e_0\frac{A}{d}

where e₀ is a constant, the electric permittivity.

Now we can isolate V, the potential difference between the plates as:

V = \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{d}{A}

Now, notice that the separation between the plates is in the numerator.

Thus, if we double the distance we will get a new potential difference V', such that:

V' = \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{2d}{A} = 2*( \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{d}{A}) = 2*V\\V' = 2*V

So, if we double the distance between the plates, the potential difference will also be doubled.

Which explanations provide support for continental drift theory? Check all that apply.
denis23 [38]
<h3><u>Full Question:</u></h3>

Which explanations provide support for continental drift theory? Check all that apply.

Dinosaurs lived on many continents.

Coal fields match up across continents.

Tropical plant fossils were found in Arctic areas.

Similar rock types are found across continents.

Evidence of glaciers can be found in South Africa.

Coal fields match up across continents.

Similar rock types are found across continents.

Tropical plant fossils were found in Arctic areas.

Evidence of glaciers can be found in South Africa.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The way the continents on the earth shifts its position is explained by the Continental drift theory. Alfred Wegener was the one who fist proposed this theory in 1912. This theory also explains how similar rocks are formed on the different continents and also  the reason why some of the animal and plant fossils looks similar.

The evidences that supports the continental drift theory can be Coal fields match up across continents. Fossils of Glossopteris supports the  theory of continental drift with coal fields  and coastlines . The land features, climate changes are some of the evidences that also supports the theory of continental drift.The evidences of the glaciers that can be found in South Africa also supports the explanation of the continental drift.

Minority group
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Minority group - People who are singled  out for unequal treatment  and who regard  themselves as objects of  collective discrimination.

Ethnicity - A shared identity based on  cultural elements such as  heritage, language, and  religion.

Majority group - A group's subset that  consists of more than half  of the entire group's  members.

Race - A socially constructed  group of people who share  physical characteristics  that are considered  significant by a society  and that are used to  distinguish them from  other groups.

Explanation:

To better understand the above-mentioned definitions we would use some examples:

Elder people can be considered as a minority group in the United States because of their reduced status as a consequence of popular discrimination and prejudice against them. In contrast to them, young men consisting of more than half the population in the age category is an example of the majority group.

Groups of people like Hispanic Americans, Jews, Italian America, Irish are some examples of people belonging to different ethnic backgrounds residing in the U.S.

African Americans who are distinguished based on their skin color is an example of race.
