An ideal parallel-plate capacitor consists of a set of two parallel plates of area Separated by a very small distance 푑. This ca

pacitor is connected to a battery that charges the capacitor such that the energy stored in the capacitor is 푈'. Now the battery is disconnected and the separation between the plates is doubled, how much energy is stored in the capacitor?

Answer:

doubled the initial value

Explanation:

Let the area of plates be A and the separation between them is d.

Let V be the potential difference of the battery.

The energy stored in the capacitor is given by

U = Q^2/2C   ...(1)

Now the battery is disconnected, it means the charge is constant.

the separation between the plates is doubled.

The capacitance of the parallel plate capacitor is inversely proportional to the distance between the plates.

C' = C/2

the new energy stored

U' = Q^2 /  2C'

U' = Q^2/C = 2 U

The energy stored in the capacitor is doubled the initial amount.

A 30.0 kg box hangs from a rope. What is the tension (in N) in the rope if the box has an initial velocity of 2.0 m/s and is slo
hjlf

Answer:

360 N

Explanation:

m = 30kg    u = 2 m/s     a = -2m/s/s

Since the object has an initial velocity of 2 m/s and acceleration of -2 m/s/s

the object will come to rest in 1 second but the force applied in that one second can be calculated by:

F = ma

F = 30 * -2

F = -60 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the force applied on the box due to gravity

letting g = -10m/s/s

F = ma

F = 30 * -10

F = -300 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the total downward force:

-300 + (-60) = -360 N

<em></em>

<em>Hence, a downward force of 360 N is being applied on the box and since the box did not disconnect from the rope, the rope applied the same amount of force in the opposite direction</em>

Therefore tension on the force = <u>360 N</u>

Which of these is an example of acceleration? A a bicyclist turning around a corner B a car traveling south with its cruise cont
Airida [17]

The answer is A.

Acceleration means when you go faster in speed. Since the bicyclist is turning, he has to slow down but when he finishes turning, he is going to pedal harder and gain more speed. This is called Acceleration.

Best of Luck!

How does a arrow represent displacement
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

An arrow represents displacement. Because it's a vector quantity.

Vector quantity= Direction+Magnitude

When an arrow is put above a unit like

  • acceleration
  • displacement

it means that it's a vector quantity.

Hope this helps ;) ❤❤❤
