Answer:

The electric field strength inside the capacitor is 49880.77 N/C.

Explanation:

Given:

Side length of the capacitor plate (a) = 4.19 cm = 0.0419 m

Separation between the plates (d) = 0.407 mm = 0.407\times 10^{-3}\ m

Energy stored in the capacitor (U) = 7.87\ nJ=7.87\times 10^{-9}\ J

Assuming the medium to be air.

So, permittivity of space (ε) = 8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

Area of the square plates is given as:

A=a^2=(0.0419\ m)^2=1.75561\times 10^{-3}\ m^2

Capacitance of the capacitor is given as:

C=\dfrac{\epsilon A}{d}\\\\C=\frac{8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m\times 1.75561\times 10^{-3}\ m^2 }{0.407\times 10^{-3}\ m}\\\\C=3.819\times 10^{-11}\ F

Now, we know that, the energy stored in a parallel plate capacitor is given as:

U=\frac{CE^2d^2}{2}

Rewriting in terms of 'E', we get:

E=\sqrt{\frac{2U}{Cd^2}}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'E'. This gives,

E=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 7.87\times 10^{-9}\ J}{3.819\times 10^{-11}\ F\times (0.407\times 10^{-3})^2\ m^2}}\\\\E=49880.77\ N/C

Therefore, the electric field strength inside the capacitor is 49880.77 N/C

Two mass m1 and m2 lie on a frictionless surface. Between the two masses is a compressed spring, with spring constant k. The sys
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The spring was compressed the following amount:

\Delta x=\sqrt{ \frac{m_1\,v_1^2+ m_2\,v_2^2}{k} }

Explanation:

Use conservation of energy between initial and final state, considering that the surface id frictionless, and there is no loss in thermal energy due to friction. the total initial energy is the potential energy of the compressed spring (by an amount \Delta x), and the total final energy is the addition of the kinetic energies of both masses:

E_i=\frac{1}{2} k\,(\Delta x)^2\\\\E_f=\frac{1}{2} m_1\,v_1^2+\frac{1}{2} m_2\,v_2^2

E_i=E_f\\

\frac{1}{2} k\,(\Delta x)^2=\frac{1}{2} m_1\,v_1^2+\frac{1}{2} m_2\,v_2^2\\k\,(\Delta x)^2=m_1\,v_1^2+ m_2\,v_2^2\\(\Delta x)^2=\frac{m_1\,v_1^2+ m_2\,v_2^2}{k} \\\Delta x=\sqrt{ \frac{m_1\,v_1^2+ m_2\,v_2^2}{k} }

What is the derivative of x^2 - x + 3 at the point x = 5?​
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

9

Explanation:

d/dx (x² - x + 3)

= 2x - 1

when x = 5,

2x-1

= 2(5) - 1

= 10 - 1

= 9

Calculate the volume of this regular solid. A cylinder labeled B at the top, 13 centimeters high with a radius of 4 centimeters.
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The volume of the cylinder is 653.71\ \text{cm}^3

Explanation:

Given that,

The height of the cylinder is 13 cm

Radius of the cylinder is 4 cm

We need to find the volume of the cylinder. The formula that is used to find the volume of a cylinder is given by :

V=\pi r^2 h\\\\V=\dfrac{22}{7} \times (4)^2 \times 13\\\\V=653.71\ \text{cm}^3

So, the volume of the cylinder is 653.71\ \text{cm}^3
