A parallel-plate capacitor consists of a set of two parallel plates of area A separated by a distance d. This capacitor is conne
icang [17]

Answer:

1) the capacitance of the capacitor increases. This is due to the induction of opposite charges on the two surfaces of the dielectric by the plate, this increased the charge in the field, from C =Q/v, it is seen that capacitance C will increase with increase in Q since v is constant.

2) the electric field intensity will also increase with increase in electric charges provided plate separation d remains constant.

Two plates of area 30.0 cm^2 are separated by a distance of 0.0590 cm. If a charge separation of 0.0240 μC is placed on the two
topjm [15]

Answer:

V=533.33 V

Explanation:

 Given that

A= 30 cm²

d= 0.059 cm

Q= 0.0240 μ C

We know that capacitance given as

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

Now by putting the values

C=\dfrac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 30\times 10^{-4}}{0.059\times 10^{-2}}

C=4.5\times 10^{-11}\ F

Voltage difference given as

Q= V .C

V=Q/C

V=\dfrac{0.0240\times 10^{-6}} {4.5\times 10^{-11}}

V=533.33 V

Could someone please explain what makes up the electromagnetic spectrum? Thank you.
faust18 [17]
These types include gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet, infrared, microwaves and radio waves. Together with visible light, all these types of radiation make up what we call the electromagnetic spectrum - the complete spectrum of radiation.
