Answer:

\frac{Q}{Q_0}=1

Explanation:

Capacitance is defined as the charge divided in voltage.

C=\frac{Q}{V}(1)

Introducing a dielectric into a parallel plate capacitor decreases its electric field. Therefore, the voltage decreases, as follows:

V=\frac{V_0}{k}

Where k is the dielectric constant and V_0 the voltage of the capacitor without a dielectric

The capacitance with a dielectric between the capacitor plates is given by:

C=kC_0

Where k is the dielectric constant and C_0 the capacitance of the capacitor without a dielectric. So, we have:

Q=CV\\Q=kC_0\frac{V_0}{k}\\Q=C_0V_0\\Q_0=C_0V_0\\Q=Q_0\\\frac{Q}{Q_0}=1

Therefore, a capacitor with a dielectric stores the same charge as one without a dielectric.

A pan hangs from a 50 cm spring. When a 10 kg mass is placed in the pan, it stretches the spring 6 cm. What is a function rule l
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

A Spring stretches / compresses when force is applied on them and they are governed by the Hookes Law which states that the force required to stretch or compress a spring is directly proportional to the distance it is stretched.

F = -kx

F is the force applied and x is the elongation of the spring

k is the spring constant.

negative sign indicates the change in direction from equilibrium position.

In the given question, we dont have force but we know that the pan is hanging. We also know from the Newton's second law of motion that

F=mg

Inserting this into Hooke's Law

mg=-kx

computing it for x,

-x=mg/k

This is the model which will tell the length of the spring against change in the mass located in the pan.

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

5.7141 m

Explanation:

Here the potential and kinetic energy will balance each other

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh}

This is the initial velocity of the system and the final velocity is 0

t = Time taken = 0.04 seconds

F = Force = 18000 N

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}

From Newton's second law

F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=m\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow 18000=68\frac{0-\sqrt{2gh}}{0.04}\\\Rightarrow \frac{18000}{68}\times 0.04=-\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times h}\\\Rightarrow 10.58823=-\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times h}

Squarring both sides

112.11061=2\times 9.81\times h\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{112.11061}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=5.7141\ m

The height from which the student fell is 5.7141 m
