A dielectric material, such as Teflon , is placed between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor without altering the structur

e of the capacitor. The charge on the capacitor is held fixed. How is the voltage across the plates of the capacitor affected? 1. The voltage decreases because of the insertion of the Teflon . 2. The voltage becomes infinite because of the insertion of the Teflon . 3. The voltage increases because of the insertion of the Teflon . 4. The voltage becomes zero after the insertion of the Teflon . 5. The voltage is not altered, because the structure remains unchanged.

Answer:

1. The voltage decreases because of the insertion of the Teflon.

Explanation:

When we placed the dielectric medium/material between the plates of the capacitor. It increases the capacitance. Increase in capacitance means that the electric field between the plates will decrease and thus there will be a decrease in voltage. As we know that the capacitance has an inverse relation with the electric field between the plates. Mathematically,

q = CV\\C = Q/V

where C is capacitance, V is Voltage and q is a charge.

By putting "Teflon between the plates of capacitor there will be a decrease in voltage."

A 55 kg roller skater is at rest on a flat skating rink, a 198 N horizontal force is needed to set the skater in motion.
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

To get the person Moving you have to overcome the static (means not moving) friction coefficient.  U(static)

To get the person going at the same speed you have to overcome the kinetic friction coefficient. U(Kinetic)

Force to get him moving is 198 N.   Force = ma = U(static)Mg

combining the 2 equations you get 198N = U(static)* 55kg *9.8m/s^2   Solve for U(static)

Same equation to keep him moving except with the dynamic force and the dynamic U

 

175N=  U(kinetic)*55kg*9.8m/s^2  Solve (U dynamic)

What happens when a star exhausts its core hydrogen supply?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

It becomes a giant or supergiant.

Explanation:

Once all the hydrogen supply is gone, fusion of hydrogen into helium stops. The core starts to contract and liberates energy, which heats the superior layer until it becomes hot enough to start the fusion of hydrogen into helium.

A 100-W (watt) light bulb has resistance R=143Ω (ohms) when attached to household current, where voltage varies as V=V0sin(2πft)
Phantasy [73]

Complete Question

A 100-W (watt) light bulb has resistance R=143Ω (ohms) when attached to household current, where voltage varies as V=V0sin(2πft), where V0=110 V, f=60 Hz. The power supplied to the bulb is P=V2R J/s (joules per second) and the total energy expended over a time period [0,T] (in seconds) is U  =  \int\limits^T_0 {P(t)} \, dt

Compute U if the bulb remains on for 5h

Answer:

The value is  U  =  7.563 *10^{5} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The power rating of the bulb is P  =  100 \  W

   The resistance is   R =  143 \ \Omega

   The  voltage is  V  =  V_o  sin [2 \pi ft]

   The  energy expanded is U  =  \int\limits^T_0 {P(t)} \, dt

   The  voltage  V_o  =  110 \  V

   The frequency is  f =  60 \  Hz

    The  time considered is  t =  5 \  h  =  18000 \  s

Generally power is mathematically represented as

             P =  \frac{V^2}{ R}

=>          P =  \frac{( 110  sin [2 \pi * 60t])^2}{ 144}

=>           P =  \frac{ 110^2 [ sin [120 \pi t])^2}{ 144}

So  

     U  =  \int\limits^T_0 { \frac{ 110^2*  [sin [120 \pi t])^2}{ 144}} \, dt

=>  U  =  \frac{110^2}{144} \int\limits^T_0 { (   sin^2 [120 \pi t]} \, dt

=>  U =  \frac{110^2}{144} \int\limits^T_0 { \frac{1 - cos 2 (120\pi t)}{2} } \, dt

=>  U =  \frac{110^2}{144} \int\limits^T_0 { \frac{1 - cos 240 \pi t)}{2} } \, dt

=>  U =  \frac{110^2}{144} [\frac{t}{2}  - [\frac{1}{2} *  \frac{sin(240 \pi t)}{240 \pi} ] ]\left  | T} \atop {0}} \right.

=>  U =  \frac{110^2}{144} [\frac{t}{2}  - [\frac{1}{2} *  \frac{sin(240 \pi t)}{240 \pi} ] ]\left  | 18000} \atop {0}} \right.

U =  \frac{110^2}{144} [\frac{18000}{2}  - [\frac{1}{2} *  \frac{sin(240 \pi (18000))}{240 \pi} ] ]

=>   U  =  7.563 *10^{5} \  J
