Answer:

Energy stored in the capacitor will be 1.835\times 10^{-6}J

Explanation:

We have given edge length of capacitor = 1.2\times 10^2cm=1.2m

So area A = 1.2×1.2 = 1.44 m^2

Separation is given as d  1 mm = 10^{-3}m

We know that capacitance is given by C=\frac{\epsilon _0A}{d}=\frac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 1.44}{10^{-3}}=12.744\times 10^{-9}F

Voltage is given as V = 12 volt

We know that energy stored is given by E=\frac{1}{2}CV^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 12.744\times 10^{-9}\times 12^2=1.835\times 10^{-6}J

Answer:

9.18 x 10^-7 J

Explanation:

length of edge, s = 1.2 x 10^2 cm = 1.2 m

Separation between the plates, d = 1 mm = 0.001 m

V = 12 V

1. Formula for the capacitance of parallel plate capacitor is

C=\frac{\epsilon _{0}A}{d}

Where, A be the area of plates

A = side x side = 1.2 x 1.2 = 1.44 m^2

C=\frac{8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 1.44}{0.001}

C = 1.275 x 10^-8 F

Energy stored in a capacitor

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

U = \frac{1}{2}\times 1.275 \times 10^{-8}\times 12^{2}

U = 9.18 x 10^-7 J

icang [17]

Explanation :

Dispersion forces are also known as London dispersion forces. It is the weakest force. Also, it is the part of the Van der Waals forces.

(1) This force is exhibited by all atoms and molecules.

(2) These forces are the result of the fluctuations in the electron distribution within molecules or atoms. Due to these fluctuations, the electric field is created. The magnitude of this force is explained in terms of Hamaker constant 'A'.

(3) Dispersion forces result from the formation of instantaneous dipoles in a molecule or atom. When electrons are more concentrated in a place, instantaneous dipoles formed.

(4) Dispersion force magnitude depends on the amount of surface area available for interactions. If the area increases, the size of the atom also increase. As a result, stronger dispersion forces.

So, the false statement is "Dispersion forces always have a greater magnitude in molecules with a greater molar mass".

When the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them?
Llana [10]
If the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them increases by a factor 4.

In fact, the magnitude of the electric force between two charges is given by:
F= k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges

We see that the magnitude of the force F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance r. Therefore, if the radius is halved:
r'= \frac{r}{2}
the magnitude of the force changes as follows:
F'=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r'^2}=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{( \frac{r}{2})^2 }=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{ \frac{r^2}{4} } =4k  \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}=4 F
so, the force increases by a factor 4.

Astronomers have found water on mars.
vodomira [7]

The thin atmosphere of Mars is thought to be due to the planet's lack of a magnetic field, which has allowed the Solar wind to blow away much of the gas the planet once had. Venus, despite still having a thick atmosphere of CO2, surprisingly has a similar problem
