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

Answer:

The distance of the first bright fringe is given as  Y_C = 1.22 *10^{-3}m

The distance of the second dark fringe from the central bright fringe is given as  Y_D = 0.00192 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The slit separation distance is  d = 1.15 mm = \frac{1.15}{1000} =0.00115 m

      The distance of the slit from the screen is  D = 3.23 m

        The wavelength is \lambda  = 633 nm

For constructive interference to occur the distance between the two slit is mathematically represented as

            Y_C  =\frac{m \lambda D}{d}

 Where m is the order of the fringe which has a value of 1 for first bright fringe

    Substituting  values

               Y_C = \frac{1 * 633 *0^{-9} * 3.23}{0.00115}

                Y_C = 1.22 *10^{-3}m

For destructive  interference to occur the distance between the two slit is mathematically represented as

            Y_D  =  [n + \frac{1}{2} ] \frac{\lambda D}{d}

      m = 2

so the formula to get the dark fringe is n = \frac{1}{2} * 1

                                                                 n=1

 Now substituting values

                 Y_D = [ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ] * \frac{633 *10^{-9} * 3.23 }{0.00115}

                   Y_D =1.5 * \frac{633 *10^{-9} * 3.23 }{0.00115}

                        Y_D = 0.00192 \ m
