The capacitance of a capacitor is the ratio of the stored charge to its potential difference, i.e.
C = Q/ΔV
C is the capacitance
Q is the stored charge
ΔV is the potential difference
Rearrange the equation:
ΔV = Q/C
We also know the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by:
C = κε₀A/d
C is the capacitance
κ is the capacitor's dielectric constant
ε₀ is the electric constant
A is the area of the plates
d is the plate separation
If we substitute C:
ΔV = Qd/(κε₀A)
We assume the stored charge and the area of the plates don't change. Then if we double the plate spacing, i.e. we double the value of d, then the potential difference ΔV is also doubled.
Answer:
– 2.5 m/s²
Explanation:
We have,
• Initial velocity, u = 180 km/h = 50 m/s
• Final velocity, v = 0 m/s (it stops)
• Time taken, t = 20 seconds
We have to find acceleration, a.
a = (v ― u)/t
a = (0 – 50)/20 m/s²
a = –50/20 m/s²
a = – 5/2 m/s²
a = – 2.5 m/s² (Velocity is decreasing) [Answer]
Answer:
People firstly believe that the planets move in a circular orbit until Newton came up with his hypothesis by inventing calculus so that we could understood and calculated planetary orbits and their accuracy.
Explanation:
- Everyone assumed the planets were perfect circles until Newton came up with an idea. Slowly people would make maps of the orbits that added circles on circles, and they could never really explain about the movement of the planet. They simply say that planets move on circles but they lacked the math to explain or prove it. Then Newton came up with an idea of inventing calculus so that we could understood and calculated planetary orbits and their accuracy.
-
- Firstly people used their observations and say that the orbits looked like circles, then they developed their models and did the math, and proposed their hypothesizes which were wrong, until Newton came along and tried to match a model that used elliptical orbits and invented the math that allowed him to make predictions with it. His model worked for most planets.
-
- However he could not explain about the planet Mercury for instance since it was a very strange orbit. Then after the Einstein's theory of General Relativity he could also explain very deeply about it.
-
- Scientists and Astronomers made hypothesizes that there was another planet orbiting too close to the sun to see with telescopes, called Vulcan, that explained mercury's orbit before Einstein's theory. Then long after we had telescopes which was good enough to see if there was a planet orbiting closer to the sun than mercury.
When conducting and experiment you want to have a notebook and something to write down notes with so you can keep everything organized and proper, and to not miss anything in the experiment. Also you want to have everything in order of the way it should be in.

"Lightyear" is a <em>distance</em> ... specifically, the distance that light travels
through vacuum in one year of 365 days.
It's equivalent to 9.454 x 10^12 kilometers, or 5.875 x 10^12 miles .
