A budding electronics hobbyist wants to make a simple 1.3 nF capacitor for tuning her crystal radio, using two sheets of aluminu

m foil as plates, with a few sheets of paper between them as a dielectric. The paper has a dielectric constant of 4.5, and the thickness of one sheet of it is 0.20 mm. If the sheets paper measures 27 cm x 36 cm and she cuts the aluminum foil to the same dimensions, how many sheets of paper should she use between her plates to get the proper capacitance?

Answer:

13 sheets

Explanation:

Capacitance of capacitor C = εA/d where C = 1.3 nF = 1.3 ×10⁻⁹ F, ε = permittivity of paper = 4ε₀, ε₀ = 8.854 × 10⁻¹² C²N⁻¹m⁻¹ , A =area of paper sheets = 27 cm x 36 cm = 972 cm ² = 0.0972 m² and d = distance between aluminium foils = number of sheets,n × thickness of sheet, t = nt , t = 0.20 mm = 0.2 × 10⁻³ m

C = εA/d = 4ε₀A/nt

n = 4ε₀A/Ct = 4 × 8.854 × 10⁻¹² C²N⁻¹m⁻¹ × 0.0972 m²/(1.3 ×10⁻⁹ F × 0.2 × 10⁻³ m) = 13.24 ≅ 13 sheets

Answer:

15sheets

Explanation:

Formula fie calculating the capacitance of a capacitor is expressed as;

C =εA/d where;

C is the capacitance of the capacitor = 1.3nF = 1.3 × 10^-9F

ε is the permittivity of the paper

If ε₀ = permittivity of free space = 8.854 × 10⁻¹² C²N⁻¹m⁻¹

ε = 4.5ε₀ = 4.5×8.854 × 10⁻¹² C²N⁻¹m⁻¹

ε = 39.843× 10⁻¹² C²N⁻¹m⁻¹

A is the area of the plates

A = 27cm×36cm

A = 0.27×0.36

A = 0.0972m²

d is the distance between the plates.

d = number of paper between the plates n × thickness t

d = nt

If t = 0.2mm

t = 0.0002m

d = 0.0002n

Substituting the given datas into the formula to get n, we have;

1.3×10^-9 = 39.843 × 10⁻¹²(0.0972)/0.0002n

1.3×10^-9 × 0.0002n = 39.843 × 10⁻¹² × 0.0972

2.6×10^-13n = 3.87×10⁻¹²

n = 3.87×10⁻¹²/2.6×10^-13

n = 1.49×10¹

n = 14.9/approximately 15sheets

When you first pull back on the pendulum, and when you pull it back really high the Potential Energy is high and the Kinetic Energy is low, But when up let go, and it gets right around the middle, that's when the Potential energy transfers to Kinetic, at that point the kinetic Energy is high and the potential Energy is low. But when it comes back up at the end. The same thing will happen, the Potential Energy is high, and the Kinetic Energy is low. Through all of that the Mechanical Energy stays the same. 

I hope this helps. :)

How is work calculated?
BartSMP [9]

Work is force times distance. If there's no distance, there's no work being done.

Starting from rest, a disk rotates about its central axis with constant angular acceleration. in 6.00 s, it rotates 44.5 rad. du
Klio2033 [76]

a. The disk starts at rest, so its angular displacement at time t is

\theta=\dfrac\alpha2t^2

It rotates 44.5 rad in this time, so we have

44.5\,\mathrm{rad}=\dfrac\alpha2(6.00\,\mathrm s)^2\implies\alpha=2.47\dfrac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}

b. Since acceleration is constant, the average angular velocity is

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{\omega_f+\omega_i}2=\dfrac{\omega_f}2

where \omega_f is the angular velocity achieved after 6.00 s. The velocity of the disk at time t is

\omega=\alpha t

so we have

\omega_f=\left(2.47\dfrac{\rm rad}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6.00\,\mathrm s)=14.8\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

making the average velocity

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{14.8\frac{\rm rad}{\rm s}}2=7.42\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

Another way to find the average velocity is to compute it directly via

\omega_{\rm avg}=\dfrac{\Delta\theta}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{44.5\,\rm rad}{6.00\,\rm s}=7.42\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

c. We already found this using the first method in part (b),

\omega=14.8\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}

d. We already know

\theta=\dfrac\alpha2t^2

so this is just a matter of plugging in t=12.0\,\mathrm s. We get

\theta=179\,\mathrm{rad}

Or to make things slightly more interesting, we could have taken the end of the first 6.00 s interval to be the start of the next 6.00 s interval, so that

\theta=44.5\,\mathrm{rad}+\left(14.8\dfrac{\rm rad}{\rm s}\right)t+\dfrac\alpha2t^2

Then for t=6.00\,\rm s we would get the same \theta=179\,\rm rad.

A train has a constant velocity of 2 m/s. east what is the magnitude of the horizontal acceleration of the trian?
kupik [55]

Answer:

0 m/s²

Explanation:

The velocity is constant, so there is no acceleration.
