A parallel-plate capacitor, with air between the plates, is connected across a voltage source. This source establishes a potenti

al difference between the plates by placing charge of magnitude 4.33 ×10 -6 C on each plate. The space between the plates is then filled with a dielectric material, with a dielectric constant of 7.74. What must the magnitude of the charge on each capacitor plate now be, to produce the same potential difference between the plates as before?

Answer: 33.5 x 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

By definition, the capacitance is the relationship between the charge on one of the plates (assuming it's a capacitor) and the voltage between them:

C = Q / V

Now, it can be showed that we can find the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, taking into account the geometry and the dielectric material only, as follows:

C = ε A /d = ε₀ εr A / d

If the dielectric is air, we can assume εr = 1

If the space between plates is filled with a dielectric of dielectric constant 7.74, the new value for capacitance (regarding the former value) must be 7.74 times larger, as A and d didn't change.

So, in order to produce the same potential difference between the plates, we need to increase the charge, exactly 7.7 times:

Q = 7.7. 4.33 . 10⁻⁶ C = 33.5 . 10⁻⁶ C

How does inertia explain why it is difficult to stop a moving<br> skateboard?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

(Example Person) has to push hard to get the skateboard started, but once it begins moving, it takes much less effort to keep it rolling over the smooth, flat pavement. In fact, if (Example Person) tries to stop the rolling skateboard, it may take as much effort to stop it as it did to start it rolling in the first place.

A car is up on a hydraulic lift at a garage. The wheels are free to rotate, and the drive wheels are rotating with a constant an
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Wheels are rotating with constant angular velocity let say \omega

Presence of constant angular velocity show that there is no angular acceleration thus there is no tangential acceleration.

But any particle on the rim will experience a constant acceleration towards center called centripetal acceleration.

(a) yes, there will be tangential velocity which is given by

v=r\cdot \omega

where r=radial distance from center

(b)tangential acceleration

there would be no tangential acceleration as velocity is constant

(c)centripetal acceleration

Yes, there will be centripetal acceleration given by

a_c=\omega ^2\times r

Find :
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

b) Gravity reduces the initial upward velocity to zero in a time of

t = v/g = 40/10 = 4 s

a) h =  v₀t + ½gt² = 40(4) +  ½(-10)4² = 80 m

or

v² = u² + 2as

h = (0² - 40²) / 2(-10) = 80 m
