Answer:
d = 0.05 [m] = 50 [mm]
Explanation:
We must remember the principle of conservation of energy which tells us that energy is transformed from one way to another. For this case, the initial kinetic energy is transformed into useful work that is equal to the product of force by distance.
![E_{k}=F*d\\400 = 8000*d\\d = 0.05 [m] = 50 [mm]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bk%7D%3DF%2Ad%5C%5C400%20%3D%208000%2Ad%5C%5Cd%20%3D%200.05%20%5Bm%5D%20%3D%2050%20%5Bmm%5D)
The max is the largest it could get so ( ,0)
Answer:
Explanation:
Distance between plates d = 2 x 10⁻³m
Potential diff applied = 5 x 10³ V
Electric field = Potential diff applied / d
= 5 x 10³ / 2 x 10⁻³
= 2.5 x 10⁶ V/m
This is less than breakdown strength for air 3.0×10⁶ V/m
b ) Let the plates be at a separation of d .so
5 x 10³ / d = 3.0×10⁶ ( break down voltage )
d = 5 x 10³ / 3.0×10⁶
= 1.67 x 10⁻³ m
= 1.67 mm.
