A dielectric material such as paper is inserted between the plates of a capacitor as the capacitor holds a fixed charge on its p

lates. What happens to the electric field between the plates as the dielectric is inserted?

Answer:

Introducing a dielectric into a capacitor decreases the electric field, which decreases the voltage, which increases the capacitance.

Explanation:

A dielectric (or dielectric material) is an electrical insulator that can be polarized by an applied electric field. When a dielectric material is placed in an electric field, electric charges do not flow through the material as they do in an electrical conductor but only slightly shift from their average equilibrium positions causing dielectric polarization

Types of dielectric material

Ceramic, Mica paper glass

What factor might be contributing to climate change
kirza4 [7]

Geological records stretching back millions of years indicate a number of large variations in Earth’s past climate. These have been caused by many natural factors, including changes in the sun, volcanoes, Earth’s orbit and CO2 levels.

However, comprehensive assessment by scientists shows that it is extremely likely that human activity has been the dominant cause of warming since the mid-20th Century.

The level of mercury falls in a barometer<br>while taking it to a mountain.​
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

This is due to a relative decrease in atmospheric pressure in high places.

Explanation:

Given that atmospheric pressure decreases at the higher point or ground, this reduced atmospheric pressure, however, will be unable to contain the Mercury in the barometer tube.

Therefore, at the top of the mountain where the air pressure is low, the barometer reading ultimately goes down.

Hence, the level of mercury falls in a barometer while taking it to a mountain "due to a relative decrease in atmospheric pressure in high places."
