Answer:

Elastic potential energy = 5.04 J

Explanation:

Given that

Extension e = 18 cm = 0.18 m

Force F = 56N

Elastic potential energy = 1/2Fe

Elastic Potential energy = 1/2 ×56×0.18

Elastic potential energy = 5.04 J

A dielectric material such as paper is inserted between the plates of a capacitor as the capacitor holds a fixed charge on its p
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Introducing a dielectric into a capacitor decreases the electric field, which decreases the voltage, which increases the capacitance.

Explanation:

A dielectric (or dielectric material) is an electrical insulator that can be polarized by an applied electric field. When a dielectric material is placed in an electric field, electric charges do not flow through the material as they do in an electrical conductor but only slightly shift from their average equilibrium positions causing dielectric polarization

A 90. 0-kg ice hockey player hits a 0. 150-kg puck, giving the puck a velocity of 45. 0 m/s. If both are initially at rest and i
Mice21 [21]

The distance traveled by the hockey player is 0.025 m.

<h3>The principle of conservation of linear momentum;</h3>
  • The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that, the total momentum of an isolated system is always conserved.

The final velocity of the hockey play is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

m_1v_1 = m_2 v_2\\\\v_1 = \frac{m_2 v_2}{m_1} \\\\v_1 = \frac{0.150 \times 45}{90} \\\\v_1 = 0.075 \ m/s

The time taken for the puck to reach 15 m is calculated as follows;

t = \frac{d}{v} \\\\t = \frac{15\ m}{45 \ m/s} \\\\t = 0.33 \ s

The distance traveled by the hockey player at the calculated time is;

d = vt\\\\d = 0.075 \ m/s \ \times 0.33 \ s\\\\d = 0.025 \ m

Use Kepler’s third law and the orbital motion of Earth to determine the mass of the Sun. The average distance between Earth and
dexar [7]

Kepler’s
third law formula: T^2=4pi^2*r^3/(GM)

We’re trying to find M, so:

M=4pi^2*r^3/(G*T^2)

M=4pi^2*(1.496
× 10^11 m)^3/((6.674× 10^-11N*m^2/kg^2)*(365.26days)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))

Let’s work
with the units:

(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))=

=(m^3*kg^2)/(N*m^2*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/(N*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/((kg*m/s^2)*days^2)

=(kg)/(days^2/s^2)

=(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

So:

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

Now we need to convert days to seconds in order to cancel
them:

1 day=24 hours=24*60minutes=24*60*60s=86400s

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/((86400s)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/(
86400^2*s^2)

M=1.48× 10^40kg/86400^2

M=1.98x10^30kg

The
closest answer is 1.99
× 10^30

(it may vary
a little with rounding – the difference is less than 1%)
