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.

You know your mass is 62 kg but when you stand on a bathroom scale in an elevator it says your mass is 77 kg what is the acceler
lbvjy [14]
In a stationary situation, the weight of person is
W=mg=(62 kg)(9.81 m/s^2) = 608.2 N
This is the weight "felt" by the scale, which is basically the normal reaction applied by the scale on the person, and which uses the value of g (9.81) as reference to convert the weight (602.8 N) into a mass (62 kg).

When the person is in the elevator, the scale says 77 kg. The scale is still using the same value of conversion (9.81), so the apparent weight "felt" by the scale is
W' = m'g=(77 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=755.4 N
This is the normal reaction applied by the scale on the person, and which is directed upward. Besides this force, there is still the weight W of the person, acting downward. So, if we use Newton's second law:
\sum F = ma
W-W'=ma
where a is the acceleration of the elevator. If we solve for a, we find
a= \frac{W-W'}{m}= \frac{608.2N-755.4N}{62 kg}=-2.37 m/s^2
The negative sign means the acceleration is in the opposite direction of g (which we take positive), so it means the elevator is going upward.

What are the wavelengths of electromagnetic wave in free space that have the following frequencies?.
irina [24]

The wavelengths of the light are 4.3 * 10^-12 m and 0.2 m respectively.

<h3>What is wavelength?</h3>

The term wavelength has to do with the horizontal distance that is covered by a wave. We know that a long wavelength implies that the wave is able to travel a long distance from one point to another.

Given that;

c = λf

c = speed of light

λ = wavelength of ight

f = frequency of light

Thus;

λ = 3 * 10^8/ 7.00 x 10^19

λ = 4.3 * 10^-12 m

λ = 3 * 10^8/1.50 x 10^9

λ = 2 * 10^-1 or 0.2 m

Consider two identical insulated metal spheres, A and B. Sphere A initially has a charge of -6.0 units and sphere B initially ha
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

<em>-2 units of charge</em>

Explanation:

charge on A = Qa = -6 units

charge on B = Qb = 2 units

if the spheres are brought in contact with each other, the resultant charge will be evenly distributed on the spheres when they are finally separated.

charge on each sphere will be = \frac{Qa + Qb}{2}

charge on each sphere =  \frac{-6 + 2}{2} = \frac{-4}{2} = <em>-2 units of charge</em>
