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

Explanation:

In order from highest to lowest energy, the sections of the EM spectrum are named: gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light, infrared radiation, and radio waves. Microwaves (like the ones used in microwave ovens) are a subsection of the radio wave segment of the EM spectrum.

I could use math to help with baking and measuring how much I should use for a cake or stuff like that, they also show us how to add our money together to help us with stuff.
Math, is helpful with many jobs, stuff learned in school can help you strategize and school also makes you think outside of the box sometimes, which can help with jobs. Also if you want to do a career with fashion designing or engineering, you can use math for that too. School also gives you the ability to read.
