Two parallel-plate capacitors have the same plate area. Capacitor 1 has a plate separation twice that of capacitor 2, and the qu
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

V_1=8 V_2

Explanation:

Given that:

  • Area of the plate of capacitor 1= Area of the plate of capacitor 2=A
  • separation distance of capacitor 2, d_2=d
  • separation distance of capacitor 1, d_1=2d
  • quantity of charge on capacitor 2, Q_2=Q
  • quantity of charge on capacitor 1, Q_1=4Q

We know that the Capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is directly proportional to the area and inversely proportional to the distance of separation.

Mathematically given as:

C=\frac{k.\epsilon_0.A}{d}.....................................(1)

where:

k = relative permittivity of the dielectric material between the plates= 1 for air

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\,F.m^{-1}

From eq. (1)

For capacitor 2:

C_2=\frac{k.\epsilon_0.A}{d}

For capacitor 1:

C_1=\frac{k.\epsilon_0.A}{2d}

C_1=\frac{1}{2} [ \frac{k.\epsilon_0.A}{d}]

We know, potential differences across a capacitor is given by:

V=\frac{Q}{C}..........................................(2)

where, Q = charge on the capacitor plates.

for capacitor 2:

V_2=\frac{Q}{\frac{k.\epsilon_0.A}{d}}

V_2=\frac{Q.d}{k.\epsilon_0.A}

& for capacitor 1:

V_1=\frac{4Q}{\frac{k.\epsilon_0.A}{2d}}

V_1=\frac{4Q\times 2d}{k.\epsilon_0.A}

V_1=8\times [\frac{Q.d}{k.\epsilon_0.A}]

V_1=8 V_2

A solenoid is designed to produce a magnetic field of 3.50×10^−2 T at its center. It has a radius of 1.80 cm and a length of 46.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

a. 2143 turns/m

b. 111.5 m

Explanation:

a. The minimum number of turns per unit length (N/L) can be found using the following equation:

B = \frac{\mu_{0}NI}{L}

\frac{N}{L} = \frac{B}{\mu_{0}I} = \frac{3.50 \cdot 10^{-2} T}{4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} Tm/A*13.0 A} = 2143 turns/m

Hence, the minimum number of turns per unit length is 2143 turns/m.

b. The total length of wire is the following:

N = 2143 turns/m*L = 2143 turns/m*46.0 \cdot 10^{-2} m = 986 turns

Since each turn has length 2πr of wire, the total length is:

L_{T} = N*2\pi r = 986 turn*2*\pi*1.80 \cdot 10^{-2} m = 111.5 m

Therefore, the total length of wire required is 111.5 m.

I hope it helps you!

What is black body radiation? Explain in detail.
tangare [24]

An object that absorbs all radiation falling on it, at all wavelengths, is called a black body. When a black body is at a uniform temperature, its emission has a characteristic frequency distribution that depends on the temperature. Its emission is called black-body radiation
