A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery. The space between the two plates is empty. If the separation between the c

apacitor plates is doubled while the capacitor remains connected to the battery, what is the ratio of the final stored energy to the initial stored energy?

Answer:

The final stored energy will become half.

Explanation:

 We know that stored energy in the capacitor is given as

E=\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2

C=capacitance

V=Voltage difference

E=Energy

C=\dfrac{\varepsilon A}{d}

d=Distance between plates

A=Area

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon A}{d}\times V^2

If the distance between plates get double ,say d' = 2 d

Then stored energy

E'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon A}{d'}\times V^2

E'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon A}{2d}\times V^2

E'=\dfrac {E}{2}

Therefore the final stored energy will become half.

two masses are separated by 1 m. suppose the masses are moved so they are 2 m apart how will the gravitational force change
Verdich [7]
The gravitational force would get stronger because the farther the two masses are separated the more gravitational force will be used to pull them together the closer they are the less gravitational pull is used to pull them together

What do astronomers use in addition to parallax to find the actual distance of stars that are close to Earth?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

trigonometry (guessing)

Explanation:

ellipse: is the shape of an orbit : looks like an oval

periapsis : shortest distance between something like the moon and the planet its orbiting around like the earth

parallax is triangulation. like how gps works. looking at a star one day and then looking at it again 6 months later, an astronomer can see a difference in the viewing angle for the star. With trigonometry, the different angles yield a distance. This technique works for stars within about 400 light years of earth

https://science.howstuffworks.com/question224.htm

By comparing the intrinsic brightness to the star's apparent brightness we can calculate the distance of stars

1/r^2 rule states that the apparent brightness of a light source is proportional to the square of its distance.Jan 11, 2022

https://www.space.com/30417-parallax.html

alternative distance measurement for stars used by most astronomers is the parsec. A star with a parallax angle of 1 arcsecond has a distance of 1 parsec, or 1 parsec per arcsecond of parallax, which is about 3.26 light years
