A capacitor consists of two closely spaced metal conductors of large area, separated by a thin insulating foil. it has an electr

The energy stored in a capacitor is given by:

U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2

where C is the capacitance and V is the potential difference applied across the capacitor.


In this problem, we have:

C=3000 \mu F= 3000 \cdot 10^{-6} F

V=87.0 V

Substituting the numbers into the equation, we find the energy stored:

U=\frac{1}{2}(3000 \cdot 10^{-6} F)(87 V)^2=11.4 J

The unit for measuring electric power is the <br> A. ampere.<br> B. volt.<br> C. ohm.<br> D. watt.
Drupady [299]
The correct answer is D: Watt. This unit was named after James Watt, and is used to express the equivalent of one joule per second in energy. In experiments and on the packaging for electrical products such as light-bulbs, the measurement will usually be written in its abbreviated format: W.

Sound waves that enter the external acoustic meatus eventually encounter the __________, which then vibrates at the same frequen
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

tympanic membrane (eardrum)

Explanation:

The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of ​​the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.

A nonconducting sphere has radius R = 1.29 cm and uniformly distributed charge q = +3.83 fC. Take the electric potential at the
zalisa [80]

Answer:

a) -2.516 × 10⁻⁴ V

b) -1.33 × 10⁻³ V

Explanation:

The electric field inside the sphere can be expressed as:

E= \frac{kqr}{R^3}

The potential at a distance can be represented as:

V(r) - V(0) = -\int\limits^r_0 {\frac{kqr}{R^3} } \, dr^2

V(r) - V(0) = [\frac{qr^2}{8 \pi E_0R^3 }]₀

V(r) =   -[\frac{qr^2}{8 \pi E_0R^3 }]₀

Given that:

q = +3.83 fc = 3.83 × 10⁻¹⁵ C

r = 0.56 cm

 = 0.56 × 10⁻² m

R = 1.29 cm

  =  1.29 × 10⁻² m

E₀ = 8.85 × 10⁻¹² F/m

Substituting our values; we have:

V(r) = -\frac{(3.83*10^{-15}C)(0.560*10^{-2}m)^2}{8 \pi (8.85*10^{-12}F/m)(1.29*10^{-2}m)^3}

V(r) = -2.15  × 10⁻⁴ V

The difference between the radial distance  and center can be expressed as:

V(r) - V(0) = -\int\limits^R_0 {\frac{kqr}{R^3} } \, dr^2

V(r) - V(0) =  [\frac{qr^2}{8 \pi E_0R^3 }]^R

V(r) = -\frac{qR^2}{8 \pi E_0R^3 }

V(r) = -\frac{q}{8 \pi E_0R }

V(r) = -\frac{(3.83*10^{-15}C)}{8 \pi (8.85*10^{-12}F/m)(1.29*10^{-2}m)}

V(r) = -0.00133

V(r) = - 1.33 × 10⁻³ V
