In 1990, a pizza with a radius of 18.0 m was made in South Africa. Suppose you make an air-filled capacitor with parallel plates

whose area is equal to that of the pizza. If a potential difference of 575 V is applied across this capacitor, it will store just 3.31 J of electrical potential energy. What are the capacitance and plate separation of this capacitor?

Explanation:

We have,

Radius of pizza, r = 18 m

Potential difference, V = 575 V

Stored electrical potential energy, E = 3.31 J

The area if an air-filled capacitor with parallel plates is equal to that of the pizza. It means, A=\pi r^2=\pi (18)^2=1017.87\ m^2

The stored potential energy in a capacitor is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2

C is capacitance

C=\dfrac{2E}{V^2}\\\\C=\dfrac{2\times 3.31}{(575)^2}\\\\C=2\times 10^{-5}\ F

The formula of the capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is given by :

C=\dfrac{\epsilon_o A}{d}

d is plate separation of this capacitor

d=\dfrac{\epsilon_o A}{C}\\\\d=\dfrac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 1017.87}{2\times 10^{-5}}\\\\d=4.5\times 10^{-4}\ m

Here

x  is measured in miles and  t  in hours.

(a) To find the distance the jogger has run in 1 hr, we set t=1 in equation (2),

     we have to eliminate x from the equation (1) using equation (2).  

     Eliminating x we get:

A 5 μF capacitor is connected to a 12 V battery. The charge on each plate of the capacitor is:
ziro4ka [17]
1 farad = 1 coulomb/volt

5 μF = 5 x 10⁻⁶ coulomb/volt

        = 60 x 10⁻⁶ coulomb / 12 volts

The charge is 60 x 10⁻⁶ coulombs = 6 x 10⁻⁵  (choice-A)

50 POINTS URGENT HELP NEEDED SPACE
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Using two to three sentences, summarize what you investigated and observed in this lab. I investigated that Most of my planets and moons had the element carbon in them. I observed that Different elements absorb different wavelengths of light.

Astronomers use a wide variety of technology to explore space and the electromagnetic spectrum; why do you believe it is essential to use many types of equipment when studying space?

It is essential to use a number of telescopes sensitive to different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum to study objects in space. Even though all light is fundamentally the same thing, the way that astronomers observe light depends on the portion of the spectrum they wish to study. Tools are useful, such as detectors that help see the different wavelengths of light. Not all light can get through the Earth's atmosphere, so for some wavelengths we have to use telescopes aboard satellites.

If carbon was the most common element found in the moons and planets, what element is missing that would make them similar to Earth?  Explain why. (Hint: Think about the carbon cycle.)

The missing element that would make moons and other planets similar to earth is oxygen. The two make carbon dioxide.

We know that the electromagnetic spectrum uses wavelengths and frequencies to determine a lot about outer space. How does it help us find out the make-up of stars?  

electromagnetic radiation Explanation, astronomers observe the wavelengths by putting telescopes on mountain tops and take results of what they are seeing

Why might it be useful to determine the elements that a planet or moon is made up of?

It might be useful so we can make new discoveries of life or even plants on other planets and moons. And discover maybe even more moons one other planets.

Hope this helps!!!!
