Two square air-filled parallel plates that are initially uncharged are separated by 1.2 mm, and each of them has an area of 190

mm^2. How much charge must be transferred from one plate to the other if 1.1 nJ of energy are to be stored in the plates? ( ε0 = 8.85 × 10^-12 C2/N · m^2)

Answer:

5.5\cdot 10^{-11} C

Explanation:

The capacitance of the parallel-plate capacitor is given by:

C=\epsilon_0 \frac{A}{d}

where

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the vacuum permittivity

A=190 mm^2 = 190 \cdot 10^{-6} m^2 is the area of the plates

d=1.2 mm = 0.0012 m is the separation between the plates

Substituting,

C=(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}) \frac{190 \cdot 10^{-6}}{0.0012}=1.4\cdot 10^{-12}F

The energy stored in the capacitor is given by

U=\frac{Q^2}{2C}

Since we know the energy

U=1.1 nJ = 1.1 \cdot 10^{-9} J

we can re-arrange the formula to find the charge, Q:

Q=\sqrt{2UC}=\sqrt{2(1.1\cdot 10^{-9} J)(1.4\cdot 10^{-12}F )}=5.5\cdot 10^{-11} C

krok68 [10]

An irrational number is a real number that cannot be written as a simple fraction.

4 = 4/1 = rational

0 = 0/1 = rational

-2/3 = rational

4.11111 = irrational

2 = 2/1 = rational

π = 3.141592... = irrational

√6= irrational

Answer:

4.1111, π , √6

Why is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge an ideal place for SWARM to collect electrical conductivity data?
ElenaW [278]

Answer: Mid-ocean ridges are geologically important because they occur along the kind of plate boundary where new ocean floor is created as the plates spread apart. Thus the mid-ocean ridge is also known as a "spreading center" or a "divergent plate boundary." The plates spread apart at rates of 1 cm to 20 cm per year.
