Answer:

The electric field is 16666.66 V/m.

The surface charge density is 1.474\times10^{-7}\ C/m^2

The capacitance is 4.484\times10^{-12}\ F

The charge on each plate is 112.1\times10^{-12}\ C

Explanation:

Given that,

Area =7.70 cm²

Distance = 1.50 mm

Potential difference = 25.0 V

Suppose  we find the electric field between the plates, the surface charge density, the capacitance and the charge on each plates.

We need to calculate the electric field

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{V}{d}

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{25.0}{1.50\times10^{-3}}

E=16666.66\ V/m

We need to calculate the charge density

Using formula of charge density

\sigma=E\times\epsilon_{0}

Put the value into the formula

\sigma=16666.66\times8.85\times10^{-12}

\sigma=1.474\times10^{-7}\ C/m^2

We need to calculate the capacitance

Using formula of capacitance

C=\dfrac{\epsilon_{0}A}{d}

Put the value into the formula

C=\dfrac{8.85\times10^{-12}\times7.60\times10^{-4}}{1.50\times10^{-3}}

C=4.484\times10^{-12}\ F

We need to calculate the charge

Using formula of charge

q=CV

Put the value into the formula

q=4.484\times10^{-12}\times25.0

q=112.1\times10^{-12}\ C

Hence, The electric field is 16666.66 V/m.

The surface charge density is 1.474\times10^{-7}\ C/m^2

The capacitance is 4.484\times10^{-12}\ F

The charge on each plate is 112.1\times10^{-12}\ C

In an RC circuit, what fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The  fraction fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for 3.0 time constants is  

      k  = 0.903

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The time  constant  \tau  =  3

The potential across the capacitor can be mathematically represented as

     V  =  V_o  (1 -  e^{- \tau})

Where V_o is the voltage of the capacitor when it is fully charged

    So   at  \tau  =  3

     V  =  V_o  (1 -  e^{- 3})

     V  =  0.950213 V_o

   Generally energy stored in a capacitor is mathematically represented as

             E = \frac{1}{2 } * C  * V ^2

In this equation the energy stored is directly proportional to the the square of the potential across the capacitor

Now  since capacitance is  constant  at  \tau  =  3

        The  energy stored can be evaluated at as

         V^2 =  (0.950213 V_o )^2

       V^2 =  0.903  V_o ^2

Hence the fraction of the energy stored in an initially uncharged capacitor is  

      k  = 0.903

What is the formula for kinetic energy
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

The formula for kinetic energy is K.E. = 1/2 mv 2 , where "m" stands for mass and "v" stands for velocity. Kinetic energy is typically measured in units of Joules, and 1 Joule is equal to 1 kilogram-meters squared per second squared.

Part A If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 47.5 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 51.5 m/s in the opposite
nalin [4]

Explanation:

Let us assume that the mass of a pitched ball is 0.145 kg.

Initial velocity of the pitched ball, u = 47.5 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = -51.5 m/s (in opposite direction)

We need to find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and the impulse applied to it by the bat. The change in momentum of the ball is given by :

\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\\Delta p=0.145\times ((-51.5)-47.5)\\\\\Delta p=-14.355\ kg-m/s

So, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball is 14.355 kg-m/s.

Let the the ball remains in contact with the bat for 2.00 ms. The impulse is given by :

J=\dfrac{\Delta p}{t}\\\\J=\dfrac{14.355}{2\times 10^{-3}}\\\\J=7177.5\ kg-m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.
