Answer:

A

The energy dissipated in the resistor {U_k} = \frac{U}{k}

B

The energy dissipated in the resistor{U_k} = kU

Explanation:

In order to gain a good understanding of the solution above it is necessary to understand that the concept required to solve the question is energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor.

Initially, take the first case. In that, according to the formula for energy stored in parallel plate capacitor with the dielectric inserted between the two plates, find the energy stored. Then, find the energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor when no dielectric is present. Then, write the equation of energy stored in the capacitor with the dielectric present in the form of the energy stored in the capacitor without the dielectric present. The equation must not be in the form of voltage as battery is removed in this case.

For part B, use the equation of the energy dissipated in the resistor. Write it in the form of the equation for energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor without dielectric in it. The equation must be in the form of voltage as battery is kept connected. Looking at the fundamentals

The energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor with the dielectric is given by,

                 U _k = \frac{1}{2} \frac{q ^2}{kC}

Here, the energy stored in the capacitor will be equal to the energy dissipated in the resistor. In this equation, Uk is the energy dissipated in the resistor, q is charge, k is the dielectric constant, and C is the capacitance.

Now, the equation of the energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor without dielectric is,

​ U= \frac{1}{2} \frac{q ^2}{C}

In this equation, U is the energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor without dielectric, q is charge, and C is the capacitance.

For part B, the battery is still connected. Thus, the equation q = CV is used to modify the above equation.

Thus, the energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor with the dielectric is given by,

U_ k = \frac{1}{2} \frac{k ^{2} C^ 2 V ^2}{kC} \\\\= \frac{1}{2}  kCV ^2

In this equation, Uk is the energy dissipated in the resistor, V is voltage, k is the dielectric constant, and C is the capacitance.

The equation of the energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor without dielectric is,

U= \frac{1}{2} \frac{C^ 2 V ^2}{C} \\\\= \frac{1}{2} CV ^2

In this equation, U is the energy dissipated in the resistor, V is voltage, k is the dielectric constant, and C is the capacitance.

(A)

The equation for energy dissipated in the resistor is,

 U _k = \frac{1}{2} \frac{q ^2}{kC}

Substitute U = \frac{1}{2}\frac{{{q^2}}}{C}  in the equation of {U_k}

U _k = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{k} )\frac{q ^2}{C} \\\\= (\frac{1}{k} ) \frac{q^2}{C}\\\\ U_{k} = \frac{U}{k}

Note :

If the resistance relates to the capacitor, the energy stored in the capacitor is dissipated through the resistance. Thus, by substituting the equation of U, the expression is found out.

(B)

The equation for energy dissipated in the resistor is

U_{k} = \frac{1}{2}kCV^2

Here, V is voltage in the circuit.

Substitute U =\frac{1}{2} CV^2 in the equation of {U_k}

So,

        U_{k} = \frac{1}{2} kCV^2\\

       = k(\frac{1}{2} CV^2)

       U_{k} = kU

What is a stream’s discharge rate if it has a width of 10 meters, a depth of 2 meters, and a velocity of 2 meters per second?
julia-pushkina [17]

A stream’s discharge rate if it has a width of 10 meters, a depth of 2 meters, and a velocity of 2 meters per second will be 40 m^{3}/sec .

Discharge rate = velocity * area

                 = velocity * depth * width

                 = 2 * 2 * 10 = 40 m^{3}/sec

What is the role of gravity when it comes to changing the velocity of objects?
Alex787 [66]

Gravity is the attraction of every body to every other body due to the masses of each body. The larger the mass, the greater the force. It also depends on the distances: the closer the bodies, the greater the force. Gravity is directed toward the center of a body, and the distance is measured from the center.

When objects fall to the ground, gravity causes them to accelerate. Acceleration is a change in velocity, and velocity, in turn, is a measure of the speed and direction of motion. Gravity causes an object to fall toward the ground at a faster and faster velocity the longer the object falls.
