A capacitor consists of two metal surfaces separated by an insulating layer. A new capacitor has no charge on either of its surf

aces. If you begin transferring charge from one surface to the other, the first surface becomes negatively charged while the second surface becomes positively charged. As you transfer the charge, the voltage of(A) the positively charged surface increases and the energy stored in the capacitor increases. (B) the positively charged surface decreases but the energy stored in the capacitor increases. (C) both surfaces increase but the energy stored in the capacitor decreases. (D) both surfaces increase and the energy stored in the capacitor stays constant.

<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>(A) the positively charged surface increases and the energy stored in the capacitor increases.</h3>

When charging a capacitor transferring charge from one surface to the other, the first surface becomes negatively charged while the second surface becomes positively charged. As you transfer the charge, the voltage of the positively charged surface increases and the energy stored in the capacitor also increases. We can solve this by the definition of <em>capacitance</em><em> </em>that is <em>a  measure of the ability of a capacitor  to store energy. </em>For any capacitor, the capacitance is  a constant defined as:

C=\frac{Q}{V_{ab}}

To maintain C constant, if Q increases V also increases.

On the other hand, the potential energy U can be expressed as:

U=\frac{Q^{2}}{2C}

In conclusion, as Q increases the potential energy also increases.

When a light ray passes from LESS dense water (n = 1.33) into a MORE dense diamond (n = 2.419) at an angle of 45 degrees, its pa
Ivenika [448]

<u>Explanation:</u>

When light is incident at a transparent surface, the transmitted component of the light changes direction at the interface. Another component of the light is reflected at the surface. When a ray of light passes from water to diamond at an angle 45°, its path is bent towards the normal. This is so because water is less dense than the diamond. The refractive index of water (n = 1.33) is less than the refractive index of diamond (n = 2.419).

2. A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 X 103
skad [1K]

Correct Question:-

A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 × 10³

newtons to raise a car 0.25 meter. How much

work is done by the jack?

\\  \\

Given :-

\star  \sf  \small force = 4.5 \times  {10}^{3}  \: newton

\star  \sf  \small distance = 0.25 \: meter

\\  \\

To find:-

\sf \star \: work = \: ?

\\  \\

Solution:-

we know :-

\bf \dag \boxed{ \rm work = force \times distance}

\\  \\

So:-

\dashrightarrow \sf work = force \times distance

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times 0.5 \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times  \frac{0 \cancel.5}{10}  \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times  \frac{5}{10}  \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times  \cancel \frac{5}{10}  \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{4\cancel.5}{10}  \times 1 {0}^{3} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45}{10}  \times 1 {0}^{3} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} }  \times 1 {0}^{3 - 1} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} }  \times 1 {0}^{2} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45}{1}  \times 1 {0}^{2} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times  \cancel{10}}{ \cancel2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times 5}{ 1} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =225 \times 10

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \bf work =\red{2250\: joule}

An automobile steering wheel is shown. What is the ideal mechanical advantage? If the AMA is 8, what is the efficiency of the st
Mars2501 [29]

1. Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA): 9

Explanation:

For a wheel and axle system like the steering wheel, the IMA is given by:

IMA=\frac{r_w}{r_a}

where

r_w is the radius of the wheel

r_a is the radius of the axle

For the steering wheel of the problem, we see that r_w = 18 cm and r_a=2 cm, so the IMA is

IMA=\frac{18 cm}{2 cm}=9


2. Efficiency: 88.9%

Explanation:

The efficiency of a system is defined as the ratio between the AMA (actual mechanical advantage) and the IMA:

\eta=\frac{AMA}{IMA}\cdot 100

In this problem, AMA=8 and IMA=9, so the efficiency is

\eta=\frac{8}{9}\cdot 100=88.9\%
