(a) 3000 V
For two parallel conducting plates, the potential difference between the plates is given by:
where
E is the magnitude of the electric field
d is the separation between the plates
Here we have:
is the electric field
d = 4.00 cm = 0.04 m is the distance between the plates
Substituting,
(b) 750 V
The potential difference between the two plates A and B is
Let's take plate A as the plate at 0 volts:
The potential increases linearly going from plate A (0 V) to plate B (3000 V).
So, if the potential difference between A and B, separated by 4 cm, is 3000 V, then the potential difference between A and a point located at 1 cm from A is given by the proportion:
and solving for V(1 cm) we find:
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Which statement is true about rubber, a polymeric material?
A.) The normal rubber band will break when the strain is greater than 1. Because according to the srain formula,
Strain = extension / original length.
For strain to be greater than one, the extension must have been greater than the original length.
B.) A normal rubber band breaks when the strain is less than 10%. This is not true
C.When a small amount of sulfur is added, to provide cross-links between molecules in rubber, the elastic limit is reduced. Surfur increases the elastic limit
D.When a small amount of sulfur is added, to provide cross-links between molecules in rubber, the ultimate tensile stress is reduced. This is not true. Surfur increases the tensile stress of the elastic material
The correct answer is therefore A
Answer:
3.75 billion years
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Half-life (t½) = 1.25 billion years
Number of half-lives (n) = 3
Time (t) =?
The time taken for the sample of potassium-40 to contains one-eighth the original amount of parent isotope can be obtained as:
n = t / t½
3 = t / 1.25
Cross multiply
t = 3 × 1.25
t = 3.75 billion years.
Therefore, it will take 3.75 billion years for the sample of potassium-40 to contains one-eighth the original amount of parent isotope
