-- pass the light through a lens
The path of the light is bent (refracted) to a new direction.

-- bounce the light off a shiny surface
The light is sent back (reflected) in the direction from which it arrived.

-- pass the light through a prism
The light is spread out according to the different wavelengths
that may be in it.

-- put something black in the light's path
The light is completely absorbed and is never seen again.

-- turn the light off
The source stops emitting light.

-- throw a towel over the lamp
The light is absorbed in the towel, and not seen outside of it.

Determine the rate at which the electric field changes between the round plates of a capacitor, 8.0 cm in diameter, if the plate
Daniel [21]

Solution:

The relation between the potential difference and the electric field between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor is given by :

$E=\frac{V}{D}$

Differentiating on both the sides with respect to time, we get

$\frac{dE}{dt}=\frac{1}{D}\frac{dV}{dt}$

Therefore, the rate of the electric field changes between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor is given by :

$\frac{dE}{dt}=\frac{1}{D}\frac{dV}{dt}$

      $=\frac{1}{1.4 \times 10^{-3}} \times 110$

      $=7.85 \times 10^4$  V/m-s

A balloon is rising vertically upwards at a velocity of 10m/s. When it is at a height of 45m from the ground, a parachute bails
harina [27]

(a) 30.9 m

Let's analyze the motion of the parachutist. Its vertical position above the ground is given by

y=h+ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 45 m is the initial height

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity (upward)

t is the time

g = -9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)

Substituting t=3 s , we find the height of the parachutist when it opens the parachute:

y=45 m+(10 m/s)(3 s)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)^2=30.9 m

(b) 44.1 m

Here we have to find first the height of the balloon 3 seconds after the parachutist has jumped off from it. The vertical position of the balloon is given by

y = h + ut

where

h = 45 m is the initial height

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity (upward)

t is the time

Substituting t = 3 s, we find

y = 45 m + (10 m/s)(3 s) = 75 m

So the distance between the balloon and the parachutist after 3 s is

d = 75 m - 30.9 m = 44.1 m

(c) 8.2 m/s downward

The velocity of the parachutist at the moment he opens the parachute is:

v = u +gt

where

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity (upward)

t is the time

g = -9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (downward)

Substituting t = 3 s,

v = 10 m/s + (-9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)= -19.4 m/s

where the negative sign means it is downward

After t=3 s, the parachutist open the parachute and it starts moving with a deceleration of

a =+5 m/s^2

where we put a positive sign since this time the acceleration is upward.

The total distance he still has to cover till the ground is

d = 30.9 m

So we can find the final velocity by using

v^2-u^2 = 2ad

where this time we have u = 19.4 m/s as initial velocity. Taking the downward direction as positive, the deceleration must be considered as negative:

a = -5 m/s^2

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{u^2 +2ad}=\sqrt{(19.4 m/s)^2+2(-5 m/s^2)(30.9 m)}=8.2 m/s

(d) 5.24 s

We can find the duration of the second part of the motion of the parachutist (after he has opened the parachute) by using

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

a = -5 m/s^2 is the deceleration

v = 8.2 m/s is the final velocity

u = 19.4 m/s is the initial velocity

t is the time

Solving for t, we find

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{8.2 m/s-19.4 m/s}{-5 m/s^2}=2.24 s

And added to the 3 seconds between the instant of the jump and the moment he opens the parachute, the total time is

t = 3 s + 2.24 s = 5.24 s
