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

a particle moves along the x axis with an acceleration of a=18t, where a has units if m/s2. if the particle at time t=0 is at th
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

 Position at t= 4 seconds is 144 m

Explanation:

 It is given that acceleration, a = 18 t, where t is the time.

 We know that Velocity, v = \int { a} \, dt

  Substituting value of a,

           Velocity, v = \int {18t} \, dt=\frac{18t^2}{2} +c=9t^2+c

 We know that at t = 0, v = -12 m/s

         So, 9*0^2+c=-12\\ \\ c=-12m/s

So velocity, v = (9t^2-12)m/s

  We also know that displacement, x = \int { v} \, dt

     Substituting value of v,  

        Displacement, x=\int {(9t^2-12)} \, dt=\frac{9t^3}{3} -12t+c=3t^3-12t+c

  We know that at t = 0, particle is at origin, x =0.

               So,  0=3*0^3-12*0+c\\ \\ c=0

   Displacement, x = 3t^3-12t

At t = 4 seconds

   x = 3*4^3-12*4=192--48=144m

Position at t= 4 seconds is 144 m

A force, F1, of magnitude 2.0 N and directed due east is exerted on an object. A second force exerted on the object is F2 = 2.0
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Magnitude of the force is

F_3 = 2.83

direction of the force is given as

\theta = 45 degree West of South

Explanation:

As we know that force is a vector quantity and in order to find the resultant of two or more forces we need to add them vectorialy

So here we have

\vec F_1 + \vec F_2 + \vec F_3 = 0

here we know that first force is of magnitude 2 N towards east

\vec F_1 = 2 \hat i N

second force is also of 2.0 N due North

\vec F_2 = 2 \hat j

now from above equation

2\hat i + 2\hat j + \vec F_3 = 0

\vec F_3 = -2\hat i - 2\hat j

so magnitude of the force is given as

F_3 = \sqrt{2^2 + 2^2}

F_3 = 2.83

direction of the force is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{F_y}{F_x}

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{-2}{-2}

\theta = 45 degree West of South

Basile [38]
The big bang theory describes and claims that the universe has been created through cosmic expansion originating from a single point.

Where it was explained that the nature of now objects in space being in constant space was due to once a high density and high density point produce a scattering or explosion of the cosmic energy . Other theories have also supported this theory originally and first documented by Georges Henri Joseph Édouard Lemaître an astronomer and physicist.
