1) 1.11\cdot 10^{-7} J

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

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

where

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of each plate

d is the distance between the plates

Here, the radius of each plate is

r=\frac{2.0 cm}{2}=1.0 cm=0.01 m

so the area is

A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.01 m)^2=3.14\cdot 10^{-4} m^2

While the separation between the plates is

d=0.50 mm=5\cdot 10^{-4} m

So the capacitance is

C=\frac{(8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m)(3.14\cdot 10^{-4} m^2)}{5\cdot 10^{-4} m}=5.56\cdot 10^{-12} F

And now we can find the energy stored,which is given by:

U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2=\frac{1}{2}(5.56\cdot 10^{-12} F/m)(200 V)^2=1.11\cdot 10^{-7} J

2) 0.71 J/m^3

The magnitude of the electric field is given by

E=\frac{V}{d}=\frac{200 V}{5\cdot 10^{-4} m}=4\cdot 10^5 V/m

and the energy density of the electric field is given by

u=\frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0 E^2

and using

E=4\cdot 10^5 V/m, we find

u=\frac{1}{2}(8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m)(4\cdot 10^5 V/m)^2=0.71 J/m^3

According to the relationship between torque and angular acceleration, what happens when you have more torque (given a constant
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The angular acceleration increases.

Explanation:

The relationship between the torque and angular acceleration is :

\tau=I\times \alpha

Where

I is the moment of inertia

\alpha is the angular acceleration

We can see that the torque is directly proportional to the angular acceleration. So, when we have more torque it means angular acceleration increases. Hence, the correct option is (A).
