A parallel-plate capacitor consists of a set of two parallel plates of area A separated by a distance d. This capacitor is conne

cted to a battery that maintains a constant potential difference across the plates. A slab of a dielectric material is inserted in the region between the plates and completely fills it. What changes would you observe as the dielectric is inserted? (There could be more than one correct choice.)

Answer:

1) the capacitance of the capacitor increases. This is due to the induction of opposite charges on the two surfaces of the dielectric by the plate, this increased the charge in the field, from C =Q/v, it is seen that capacitance C will increase with increase in Q since v is constant.

2) the electric field intensity will also increase with increase in electric charges provided plate separation d remains constant.

Why is it important to know the direction of the force applied to a moving object and the direction in which the object is movin
erastova [34]

Answer

(C).

When there is an angle between the two directions, the cosine of the angle must be considered.


Step by step Solution

The work done by a force is defined as the product of the force and the distance traveled in the direction of motion.

The first answer "Only the component of the force perpendicular to the motion is used to calculate the work" is wrong because, the force perpendicular to motion does no work.

The second choice "If the force acts in the same direction as the motion, then no work is done" is wrong because the work in the direction of the force is W=F\times d.

Fourth answer "A force at a right angle to the motion requires the use of the sine of the angle" is wrong because the sin(90)=0 meaning that there is no work done in the direction perpendicular to the motion.

The third answer" When there is an angle between the two directions, the cosine of the angle must be considered." is correct because the work is calculated using the force in the direction of the motion. The magnitude of this force is F\times d\times \cos(\theta).

The following three hot samples have the same temperature. The same amount of heat is removed from each sample. Which one experi
melomori [17]

Complete Question:

The following three hot samples have the same temperature. The same amount of heat is removed from each sample. Which one experiences the smallest drop in temperature, and which one experiences the largest drop? Sample A: 4.0 kg of water [c = 4186 J/(kg·C°)] Sample B: 2.0 kg of oil [c = 2700 J/(kg·C°)] Sample C: 9.0 kg of dirt [c = 1050 J/(kg·C°)]

Answer:

A. Smallest B. Largest.

Explanation:

Assuming no heat exchange except for the heat removed from any sample (which we know is the same for the three ones), and that the process is done using only conduction, we can use the equation that relates the heat lost or gained by one object, with the mass of the object and the consequent change in temperature, as follows:

Q = c*m*ΔT, where c, is a proportionality constant called specific heat, which is different for each material.

As we know that the heat removed is the same for the three samples, we can equate the right sides of the equation for each sample, as follows:

cw*mw*ΔTw = co*mo*ΔTo = cd*md*ΔTd

Replacing by the givens, we have:

4.0 kg. 4,186 J/kgºC*ΔT(ºC) = 2.0 kg*2,700 J/kgºC*ΔT(ºC) =9.0kg*1,050J/kgºC*ΔT(ºC)

As the three expressions must be equal each other, it's clear that the unknown term (the drop in temperature) must compensate the product of the mass times the specific heat.

This product is the following for the three samples:

Water: 4.0 kg*4,186 J/kgºC = 16,744 J/ºC

Oil : 2.0 kg*2,700 J/kgºC    = 5,400 J/ºC

Dirt: 9.0 * 1,050 J/kgºC        = 9,450 J/ºC

Clearly, we see that in order to keep the heat exchange equations equal each other, the water must suffer the smallest drop in temperature, and the oil must experience the largest one.

So, the sample A experiencies the smallest drop in temperature, and sample B does the largest one.

You and a friend each hold a lump of wet clay. Each lump has a mass of 30 grams. You each toss your lump of clay into the air, w
Vesna [10]

Answer:

\ \text{m/s}

Explanation:

u_1 = Velocity of one lump = 3x+3y-3z

u_2 = Velocity of the other lump = -4x+0y-4z

m = Mass of each lump = 30\ \text{g}

The collision is perfectly inelastic as the lumps stick to each other so we have the relation

mu_1+mu_2=(m+m)v\\\Rightarrow m(u_1+u_2)=2mv\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{u_1+u_2}{2}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{3x+3y-3z-4x+0y-4z}{2}\\\Rightarrow v=-0.5x+1.5y-3.5z=\ \text{m/s}

The velocity of the stuck-together lump just after the collision is \ \text{m/s}.

Compare the wavelengths of an electron (mass = 9.11 × 10−31 kg) and a proton (mass = 1.67 × 10−27 kg), each having (a) a speed o
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Part A:

The proton has a smaller wavelength than the electron.  

\lambda_{proton} = 6.05x10^{-14}m < \lambda_{electron} = 1.10x10^{-10}m

Part B:

The proton has a smaller wavelength than the electron.

\lambda_{proton} = 1.29x10^{-13}m < \lambda_{electron} = 5.525x10^{-12}m

Explanation:

The wavelength of each particle can be determined by means of the De Broglie equation.

\lambda = \frac{h}{p} (1)

Where h is the Planck's constant and p is the momentum.

\lambda = \frac{h}{mv} (2)

Part A

Case for the electron:

\lambda = \frac{6.624x10^{-34} J.s}{(9.11x10^{-31}Kg)(6.55x10^{6}m/s)}

But J = Kg.m^{2}/s^{2}

\lambda = \frac{6.624x10^{-34}Kg.m^{2}/s^{2}.s}{(9.11x10^{-31}Kg)(6.55x10^{6}m/s)}

\lambda = 1.10x10^{-10}m

Case for the proton:

\lambda = \frac{6.624x10^{-34}Kg.m^{2}/s^{2}.s}{(1.67x10^{-27}Kg)(6.55x10^{6}m/s)}

\lambda = 6.05x10^{-14}m

Hence, the proton has a smaller wavelength than the electron.  

<em>Part B </em>

For part b, the wavelength of the electron and proton for that energy will be determined.

First, it is necessary to find the velocity associated to that kinetic energy:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

2KE = mv^{2}

v^{2} = \frac{2KE}{m}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2KE}{m}}  (3)

Case for the electron:

v = \sqrt{\frac{2(7.89x10^{-15}J)}{9.11x10^{-31}Kg}}

but 1J = kg \cdot m^{2}/s^{2}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2(7.89x10^{-15}kg \cdot m^{2}/s^{2})}{9.11x10^{-31}Kg}}

v = 1.316x10^{8}m/s

Then, equation 2 can be used:

\lambda = \frac{6.624x10^{-34}Kg.m^{2}/s^{2}.s}{(9.11x10^{-31}Kg)(1.316x10^{8}m/s)}    

\lambda = 5.525x10^{-12}m

Case for the proton :

v = \sqrt{\frac{2(7.89x10^{-15}J)}{1.67x10^{-27}Kg}}

But 1J = kg \cdot m^{2}/s^{2}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2(7.89x10^{-15}kg \cdot m^{2}/s^{2})}{1.67x10^{-27}Kg}}

v = 3.07x10^{6}m/s

Then, equation 2 can be used:

\lambda = \frac{6.624x10^{-34}Kg.m^{2}/s^{2}.s}{(1.67x10^{-27}Kg)(3.07x10^{6}m/s)}

\lambda = 1.29x10^{-13}m    

Hence, the proton has a smaller wavelength than the electron.
