A battery charges a parallel-plate capacitor fully and then is removed. The plates are immediately pulled apart. (With the batte

ry disconnected, the amount of charge on the plates remains constant.) What happens to the potential difference between the plates as they are being separated?

Answer:

<em>There will be an increase in potential difference.</em>

Explanation:

As we know that the potential difference depends upon the capacitance.

ΔV = Q/C

When battery is disconnected the charge remains constant on the plates but the capacitance decreases. As the capacitance has an inverse relation with the potential difference, there will be an increase in it.

In addition to that the potential difference can also be defined as the product of field and distance between the plates. As the charge is constant so the field is constant. Upon increasing the separation between the plates the potential difference will also increased.

If the pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, how would the graph change?
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

took longer to complete one oscillation, that means its PERIOD increased, and the distance between the peaks of the graph would be longer.

line would be less. the period of oscillation would have any effect on the graph

Scientific notation is a system used in order to It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier. It is useful as it allows very large number that would take a lot of space to write otherwise, and it allows them to be calculated easier. 10^{23} for example is a incredible large number, but written in this form is immediately understandable and useful for calculation.

The potential difference between the plates of an air-filled parallel-plate capacitor with a plate separation of 4 cm is 51 V. W
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field between plates of a parallel plate capacitor is uniform .

In a uniform electric field , relation between electric field and potential gradient is as follows

electric field = potential gradient               [ E = - dV / dl ]

in the given case ,

dV = 51 V  ,

dl = 4 cm

=  4 x 10⁻² m

E = 51 /  4 x 10⁻²

= 12.75 x 10² V / m

= 1275 V / m
