Answer:

increasing the separation between the plates

Explanation:

The increase in the vacuum/separation between the plates in a parallel plate capacitor connected to a constant potential difference decreases the energy stored in the capacitor. the increase in the separation of the plates of a parallel plate capacitor reduces the capacitance of the capacitor because

Q(charge) = CV  V = VOLTAGE , c = capacitance  

E = 1/2 eAV^2/ D  ( ENERGY STORED )

where D = distance between plates, e = dielectric, A = area of capacitor , V = potential difference

Suppose an electron is trapped within a small region and the uncertainty in its position is 24.0 x 10-15 m. What is the minimum
Alina [70]

Answer:

  • Uncertainty in position (∆x) = 24 × 10⁻¹⁵ m
  • Uncertainty in momentum (∆P) = ?
  • Planck's constant (h) = 6.26 × 10⁻³⁴ Js

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta x .\Delta p =  \dfrac{h}{4\pi}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf24 \times  {10}^{ - 15}  .\Delta p =  \dfrac{6.26 \times  {10}^{ - 34}} {4 \times  \frac{22}{7} }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf24 \times  {10}^{ - 15}  .\Delta p =  \dfrac{6.26 \times  {10}^{ - 34}} { \frac{88}{7} }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf24 \times  {10}^{ - 15}  .\Delta p =  \dfrac{6.26 \times  {10}^{ - 34} \times 7} { 8 }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{43.82 \times  {10}^{ - 34} } { 8  \times 24 \times  {10}^{ - 15} }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{43.82 \times  {10}^{ - 34} } { 192 \times  {10}^{ - 15} }

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{43.82 \times  {10}^{ - 34}  \times  {10}^{15} } { 192}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{43.82 \times  {10}^{ -19}   } { 192}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{4382 \times  {10}^{ - 2}  \times  {10}^{ -19}   } { 192}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p =  \dfrac{4382 \times  {10}^{ - 21}   } { 192}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p = 22.822\times  {10}^{ - 21}

\longrightarrow \:  \:  \sf\Delta p = 2.2822 \times  {10}^{1} \times  {10}^{ - 21}

\longrightarrow \:  \: \underline{ \boxed{ \red{  \bf\Delta p = 2.2822 \times  {10}^{ - 20}  \:  kg/ms}}}

What aspect of speech sound is the primary factor in determining if one perceives the /ba/ sound or the /pa/ sound?
nignag [31]
The answer is voice onset time. It is a part of the production of stop consonants. Its definition is the length of time that passes between the release of a stop consonant and the start of the voicing and the vibration of the vocal folds.

A thin film of oil (n = 1.27) is located on smooth, wet pavement. When viewed from a direction perpendicular to the pavement, th
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The problem is based on interference in thin films

refractive index of water is more than given oil so there will be phase change of π at upper and lower layer of the film .

a )

for constructive interference , the condition is

2μt = nλ where t is thickness of layer , μ is refractive index , λ is wavelength and n is order of the fringe

Putting the values

2 x 1.27 t = n x 640

2 x 1.27 t =  640 ( for minimum thickness n = 1 )

t = 252 nm .

b )

2 x 1.27 t = m₁  λ₁

for destructive interference

2μt = (2m₂+1)λ₂/2

2 x 1.27 t =(2m₂+1)λ₂/2

m₁ λ₁  = (2m₂+1)λ₂/2

2m₁λ₁  = (2m₂+1)λ₂

2m₁ / (2m₂+1) = λ₂ / λ₁

2m₁ / (2m₂+1) = 548/ 640

2m₁ / (2m₂+1) = .85625

2m₁ = .85625 (2m₂+1)

This is the required relation between m₁ and m₂

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Rain came along with lower temps

Explanation:

There was no rain on the warmer days

There were more clouds as the week went on

and the temp decreased during the week so rain came with lower temps is the only one that can be correct
