Complete question:

Two identical closely spaced circular disks form a parallel-plate capacitor. Transferring 2.1 × 10⁹ electrons from one disk to the other causes the electric field strength between them to be 1.6 × 10⁵ N/C . What are the diameters of the disks ?

Answer:

The diameter of the disks is 0.0174 m

Explanation:

Given;

charge, q on each sphere = 2.1 × 10⁹ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C = 3.36 x 10⁻¹⁰ C

Electric field strength due to charged spheres, E = 1.6 × 10⁵ N/C

E = V/d

Capacitance is given as;

C = εA/d

The charge on a capacitor is given as;

Q = CV

Q = \frac{\epsilon*A}{d} *Ed =EA \epsilon

But, A = πd²/4

Q = E(πd²/4)ε

Q =\frac{E\pi d^2 \epsilon}{4} \\\\d^2 = \frac{4Q}{E\pi  \epsilon} \\\\d =\sqrt{ \frac{4Q}{E\pi  \epsilon}}

where;

d is the diameter of the disks

ε is permittivity of free space = 8.854 x 10⁻¹² F/m

Substitute the given values and solve for "d"

d =\sqrt{ \frac{4Q}{E\pi  \epsilon}} \\\\d =\sqrt{ \frac{4*3.36*10^{-10}}{1.6*10^5*\pi *8.854*10^{-12}}} \\\\d = 0.0174  \ m

Therefore, the diameter of the disks is 0.0174 m

Explain the process of refraction of light​
brilliants [131]

The process of refraction of light​ occurs when light rays bends when travelling between media of different densities.

What is refraction of light?

Refraction of light is the bending of light rays or the change in the direction of light rays as it travels between media of different densities.

Light waves travel faster in media of less density than media of more density.

The change in density of the media makes light waves to be bend towards or away from the normal.

For example, when light travels from less dense air to more dense water, the light rays are bent towards the normal. However, when light rays travel from water to air, the light rays are refracted away from the normal.

In conclusion, refraction of light waves occur when light crosses the boundary of media of different densities.

A solid cylindrical object has a mass of 2.0 kg, a diameter
omeli [17]

Answer:

I = 0.0025 kg.m²

Explanation:

Given that

m= 2 kg

Diameter ,d= 0.1 m

Radius ,R=\dfrac{d}{2}

R=\dfrac{0.1}{2}

R=0.05 m

The moment of inertia of the cylinder about it's axis same as the disc and it is given as

I=\dfrac{mR^2}{2}

Now by putting the all values

I=\dfrac{2\times 0.05^2}{2}

I = 0.0025 kg.m²

Therefore we can say that the moment of inertia of the cylinder will be  0.0025 kg.m².

A 3 kg stone is dropped from a height of 4 m what is its momentum as it strikes the ground
Vitek1552 [10]

Okay first you have to recognize that the maximum Gravitational potential energy will equal the maximum kinetic energy. The maximum GPE will equal when the stone is at its highest point and the max KE will be right before the stone hits the ground. So

GPE max = KE max

mgh = 1/2mv^2

Mass cancels as it is on both sides

gh = 1/2v^2

Multiply by 2

2gh = v^2

Square root

v = √2gh

Now plug in

v = √2(9.8)(4)

v = 8.85 m/s

Now use the mass to calculate the momentum just before it hits the ground as this is the speed right before it hits the ground

p = mv

p = (3)(8.85)

p = 26.55 kgm/s
