Two fully charged cylindrical capacitors are connected to two identical batteries. The capacitors are identical except that the

Leni [432]

Answer:

Part(a): The relative capacitance is $\dfrac{C_{A}}{C_{B}} = 0.33$

Part(b): The relative energy stored is $\dfrac{U_{A}}{U_{B}} = 0.33$

Part(c): The relative charge stored is $\dfrac{Q_{A}}{Q_{B}} = 0.33$

Explanation:

We know the capacitance ( $C$ ) of a capacitor having charge ( $Q$ ) and subjected to a potential difference of ( $V$ ) is given by

$C = \dfrac{Q}{V}$

Also, the energy ( $U$ ) stored by a capacitor can be written as

$U = \dfrac{1}{2}C~V^{2}$

Let us assume that the inner radius of the Capacitor B, as shown in the figure, be $\textbf{r_{i}^{B}}$ $\bf{r_{i}^{B}}$ , the outer radius be $\bf{r_{o}^{B}}$ , the inner radius of Capacitor A be $\bf{r_{i}^{A}}$ and the outer radius be $\bf{r_{o}^{B}}$ .

Given in the problem,

$&& r_{o}^{B} = 2~r_{B}^{i}\\&& r_{o}^{A} = 4~r_{B}^{i}\\&& and~r_{i}^{B} = 4~r_{o}^{B} = 8~r_{B}^{i}$

Now, the capacitance ( $C$ ) of a cylindrical capacitor is given by,

$\bf{C = \dfrac{2~\pi~\epsilon_{0}~L}{ln(\dfrac{r_{o}}{r_{i}})}}$

where $\epsilon_{o}$ is the permittivity of the free space, $L$ is the length of the cylindrical capacitor.

Part(a):

The capacitance of capacitor A,

$C_{A} = \dfrac{2~\pi~\epsilon_{0}L}{ln(\dfrac{r_{o}^{A}}{r_{i}^{A}})} = \dfrac{2~\pi~\epsilon_{0}L}{ln(\dfrac{8~r_{i}^{B}}{r_{i}^{B}})} = \dfrac{2~\pi~\epsilon_{0}L}{ln(8)}$

and the capacitance of capacitor B,

$C_{B} = \dfrac{2~\pi~\epsilon_{0}L}{ln(\dfrac{r_{o}^{B}}{r_{i}^{B}})} = \dfrac{2~\pi~\epsilon_{0}L}{ln(\dfrac{2~r_{i}^{B}}{r_{i}^{B}})} = \dfrac{2~\pi~\epsilon_{0}L}{ln(2)}$

giving the relative capacitance of each capacitor to be

$\dfrac{C_{A}}{C_{B}} = \dfrac{ln(2)}{ln(8)} = \dfrac{ln(2)}{3~\ln(2)} = \dfrac{1}{3} = 0.33$

Part(b):

Energy stored by capacitor A,

$U_{A} = \dfrac{1}{2}~C_{A}~V^{2}$

Energy stored by capacitor B,

$U_{B} = \dfrac{1}{2}~C_{B}~V^{2}$

giving the relative energy stored by each capacitor to be

$\dfrac{U_{A}}{U_{B}} = \dfrac{C_{A}}{C_{B}} = 0.33$

Part(c):

The charge stored by capacitor A,

$Q_{A} = C_{A}~V$

The charge stored by capacitor B,

$Q_{B} = C_{B}~V$

giving the relative charge stored by each capacitor to be

$\dfrac{Q_{A}}{Q_{B}} = \dfrac{C_{A}}{C_{B}} = 0.33$

Why does carpet tend to produce differences in static electricity more that hardwood or tile floors

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

This is because the rubbing releases negative charges, called electrons, which can build up on one object to produce a static charge. For example, when you shuffle your feet across a carpet, electrons can transfer onto you, building up a static charge on your skin.

Explanation:

This is because the rubbing releases negative charges

A car and a train move together along straight, parallel paths with the same constant cruising speed v0. At t=0 the car driver n

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

a) t1 = v0/a0

b) t2 = v0/a0

c) v0^2/a0

Explanation:

A)

How much time does it take for the car to come to a full stop? Express your answer in terms of v0 and a0

Vf = 0

Vf = v0 - a0*t

0 = v0 - a0*t

a0*t = v0

t1 = v0/a0

B)

How much time does it take for the car to accelerate from the full stop to its original cruising speed? Express your answer in terms of v0 and a0.

at this point

U = 0

v0 = u + a0*t

v0 = 0 + a0*t

v0 = a0*t

t2 = v0/a0

C)

The train does not stop at the stoplight. How far behind the train is the car when the car reaches its original speed v0 again? Express the separation distance in terms of v0 and a0 . Your answer should be positive.

t1 = t2 = t

Distance covered by the train = v0 (2t) = 2v0t

and we know t = v0/a0

so distanced covered = 2v0 (v0/a0) = (2v0^2)/a0

now distance covered by car before coming to full stop

Vf2 = v0^2- 2a0s1

2a0s1 = v0^2

s1 = v0^2 / 2a0

After the full stop;

V0^2 = 2a0s2

s2 = v0^2/2a0

Snet = 2v0^2 /2a0 = v0^2/a0

Now the separation between train and car

= (2v0^2)/a0 - v0^2/a0

= v0^2/a0
