Consider two air-filled parallel-plate capacitors with circular plates. Capacitor 1 has a distance between plates d and plate ra

dius R. Capacitor 2 has a distance between plates 2d and plate radius R/2.
If the capacitance of capacitor 1 is C, then the capacitance of capacitor 2 is?

Answer:

1/8 x C

Explanation:

The capacitance of parallel plate capacitor

= ε₀ A /d where A is area of plate and d is distance between plate.

for capacitor 1

C =  ε₀ A /d

For capacitor 2

radius = R/2

Area = A / 4

Capacitance

= ε₀ (A/4) x ( 1 / 2d )

= ( 1 / 8) x (ε₀ A /d)

= 1/8 x C

A force of 40 N accelerates a 5 block at 6 m/s ^ 2 along a horizontal surface a. What would the block's acceleration be if the s
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

a = 8 m/s^2, Ffriction = 10 N, μk = 0.205

Explanation:

a. Force = Mass*Acceleration,

(since you didn't add the units..."5 block"....for the mass, I will assume it to be in kg, per SI units)

40 N = 5 kg*acceleration,

a = 40/5 = 8 m/s^2

b. As you know newtons second law (F=m*a) is actually in the form Fnet = m*a. Which means that if the friction force comes into play, it would be Fapplied - Ffriction = m*a.

Fapplied - Ffriction = m*a,

40 - Ffriction = 5*6,

40 - Ffriction = 30,

Ffriction = 40 - 30 = 10 N

c. The coefficient of kinetic friction is calculated by the formula "Ffriction = μk*Fnormal".

10 = μk*Fnormal (Fnormal = m*g = 5*9.8)

10 = μk*49,

μk=10/49 ≈ 0.205

Why is Jupiter so much larger than Earth? Check all that apply
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Moreover, Boss says that even if Jupiter is proven to have a core, the planet still could have formed that core through disk instability. Enough dust could have collected and cemented together in the dense gas to form a core many times larger than the size of the Earth.

Explanation:

The same is true of most other objects in the solar system — except Jupiter. The gas giant is so big that it pulls the center of mass between it and the sun, also known as the barycenter, some 1.07 solar radii from the star's center — which is about 30,000 miles above the sun's surface.

You are trying to overhear a juicy conversation, but from your distance of 20.0 m , it sounds like only an average whisper of 30
12345 [234]

Answer:

r₂ = 0.2 m

Explanation:

given,

distance = 20 m

sound of average whisper = 30 dB

distance moved closer = ?

new frequency = 80 dB

using formula

\beta = 10 log(\dfrac{I_1}{I_0})

   I₀ = 10⁻¹² W/m²

now,

30 = 10 log(\dfrac{I_1}{10^{-12}})

\dfrac{I_1}{10^{-12}}= 10^3

I_1= 10^{-8}\ W/m^2

to hear the whisper sound = 80 dB

80 = 10 log(\dfrac{I_2}{10^{-12}})

\dfrac{I_2}{10^{-12}}= 10^8

I_2= 10^{-4}\ W/m^2

we know intensity of sound is inversely proportional to square of distances

\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}

\dfrac{10^{-8}}{10^{-4}}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{20^2}

10^{-4}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{20^2}

  r₂ = 0.2 m

anastassius [24]
The average speed of a moving body is given by:
average speed = total distance / total time
average speed = 560 / 25
22.4 meters per second

The skier is traveling at an average velocity of 22.4 meters per second.
