Answer:

The capacitance of the capacitor is 2.035 nC .

Explanation:

Given :

Thickness , d = 0.1 \ mm=10^{-4}\ m.

Area of aluminium foil , A=100\ cm^2=10^{-2}\ m^2.

Dielectric constant of aluminium foil , \epsilon_r=2.3 .

We know , Capacitance of parallel plate capacitor is given by :

C=\dfrac{\epsilon_r \epsilon_oA}{d}  { Every sign have their usual meaning }

Putting all values we get ,

C=\dfrac{2.3\times 8.85 \times 10^{-12}\times 10^{-2}}{10^{-4}}\\\\C=2.035\times 10^{-9}=2.035\ nC.

Hence , this is the required solution.

What affect does a tripling of the net force have upon the acceleration of the object ? Be quantitative
vovikov84 [41]
The formula of net Force is:
F = ma
where m is the mass of the object
a is the acceleration of the object

so if we triple the net force applied to the object:
3F = ma
a = 3F / m

so the acceleration will also be tripled. because from the equation, the force is directly proportional to the acceleration

In a lightning bolt, a large amount of charge flows during a time of 1.2 x 10-3 s. Assume that the bolt can be represented as a
ohaa [14]

Answer: 10.58 C has flowed during the lightning bolt

Explanation:

Given that;

Time of flow t = 1.2 × 10⁻³

perpendicular distance r = 21 m

Magnetic field B = 8.4 x 10⁻⁵ T

Now lets consider the expression for magnetic field;

B = u₀I / 2πr

the current flow is;

I = ( B × 2πr ) / u₀

so we substitute

I = ( (8.4 x 10⁻⁵) × 2 × 3.14 × 21 ) / 4π ×10⁻⁷

=  0.01107792 / 0.000001256

= 8820 A

Hence the charge flows during lightning bolt  will be;

q = It

so we substitute

q = 8820 × 1.2 × 10⁻³

q = 10.58 C

therefore 10.58 C has flowed during the lightning bolt

If the pressure exerted on a 300.0 mL sample of hydrogen gas at constant temperature is increased from 0.500 kPa to 0.750 kPa, w
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

200 mL

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume, V₁ = 300 mL

Initial pressure, P₁ = 0.5 kPa

Final pressure, P₂ = 0.75 kPa

We need to find the final volume of the sample if pressure is increased at constant temperature. It is based on Boyle's law. Its mathematical form is given by :

V\propto \dfrac{1}{P}\\\\P_1V_1=P_2V_2

V₂ is the final volume

V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{P_2}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{300\times 0.5}{0.75}\\\\V_2=200\ mL

So, the final volume of the sample is 200 mL.

If a soap bubble is 115 nm thick, what wavelength is most strongly reflected at the center of the outer surface when illuminated
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

611.8 nm

Explanation:

n_{oil} = Index of refraction of soap bubble  = 1.33

t = thickness of the soap bubble = 115 nm = 115 x 10⁻⁹ m

\lambda = wavelength of light = ?

m = order = 0

For reflection , the necessary condition is

2 n_{oil} t = (m + 0.5) \lambda

2 (1.33)(115\times 10^{-9})= (0 + 0.5) \lambda

\lambda = 6.118\times 10^{-7}

\lambda = 611.8 nm
