When a 25000-kg fighter airplane lands on the deck of the aircraft carrier, the carrier sinks 0.23cm deeper into the water.

Answer:

10604 square meters

Explanation:

0.23 cm = 0.0023m

Assume the carrier has a shape of a rectangular box. When the carrier sinks 0.0023m deeper into water, the extra volume submerged into water is the same as the extra water volume being replaced. This extra volume would add an additional buoyant force to counter balance the extra weight created by the 25000 kg fighter.

With g being constant, the mass of the extra water displaced is the same as the mass of the fighter airplane m_f. And mass of the water displaced is its volume V times its density \rho

V\rho = m_f

1025V = 25000

V = 25000/1025 = 24.39 m^3

We assume the carrier has a shape of a rectangular box, so this extra displaced volume is the extra depth d = 0.0023 m times cross-section area A

V = dA

24.39 = 0.0023A

A = 24.39 / 0.0023 = 10604 m^2

A 5.00-pf parallel-plate air-filled capacitor with circular plates is to be used in a circuit in which it will be subjected to p
r-ruslan [8.4K]

A 5 <em>pF</em> parallel-plate air-filled capacitor, with a potential difference equal to 100 Volts and an electric field of 10.000 Volts per meter, must have a plate separation of 10 milimeters, and plate's area equal to 0.0056 meters squared.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Capacitors are electrical components use to store electrical energy in the form of potential difference. This is done by putting 2 plates of a conductive material very close to each other, but without getting them into contact. The idea is that, when you charge one plate with (for example) positive charges, the other plate will "feel" this and will charge itself with negative charges (due to the attraction between charges of opposite signs).

The trick is that, even though the charges in the two plates attract each other, they can't come into contact since the 2 plates are separated by a certain distance. Now let's suppose there is only air between the capacitor's plates, we know that air is not a conductive material, however if you charge both plates just enough, you'll be able to make air conduct electricity and so charges from one plate will go to the other and equilibrium will be achieved.

This is the same thing that happens when a lightning strikes the ground. Imagine that the Earth is a gigantic capacitor, with the clouds being one plate and the ground being the other plate. When the clouds are charged enough, air is forced to conduct electricity towards the ground (which is the lightning we see), until equilibrium is achieved. This is the reason why, in Physics, we say that everything is a conductive material if you force it just enough.

Back to our problem... We can compute the separation of the capacitor's plates with the following equation:

V = E\cdot d

Which says that the Voltage <em>V</em> is equal to the product of the Electric field <em>E</em> and the distance between the plates <em>d</em>. This equation is valid if the electric field across the capacitor is constant (which for small magnitudes of <em>d</em> it is). So solving for the distance we get:

d= \frac{V}{E} = \frac{100}{10000} \frac{V}{V/m} = 0.01 m = 10 mm

Where we can see that the separation of plates is 10 millimeters. Now for the area between the plates we can use this other formula:

C= \frac{\epsilon \cdot A}{d}

Where \epsilon is the air's permittivity which has a value of around 8.86 \cdot 10^{-12} \frac{F}{m}. By solving for the plate's area, we can find:

A= \frac{C \cdot d}{\epsilon} = 0.0056 m^2 =

Which corresponds to a plate's radius of 42.4 millimeters.

Explain what physicists mean when they say that the de Broglie wavelength relates to the probability distribution wave function.
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Because it unites particle and wave nature.

Explanation:

De Broglie wavelength can be defined as the,

\lambda =\frac{h}{mv}

Here, h is planks constant, m is the mass of electron, v is the velocity of electron.

Since the de Broglie wavelength can behave like the photon wavelength with respect to the  momentum

It unites particles and waves nature ,so De Broglie wavelengths is probability waves associated with the wave function according to physicists.

which criteria are responsible for deciding whether a heterogeneous mixture is a colloid or a suspension
ad-work [718]
I think you forgot to give the options along with the question. I am answering the question based on my knowledge and research. The criteria responsible for deciding whether a heterogeneous mixture is a colloid or a suspension is whether the <span>particles remain suspended for an extended period of time. I hope it helps you.</span>

At constant volume, the heat of combustion of a particular compound is − 3550.0 kJ / mol. When 1.075 g of this compound ( molar
swat32

Answer:

C=1,25\cdot 10^{5} kJ/^{\circ}C

Explanation:

First of all let's define the specific molar heat capacity.

C = \frac{-Q}{n\cdot \Delta T} (1)

Where:

Q is the released heat by the system

n is the number of moles

ΔT is the difference of temperature of the system  

Now, we can find n with the molar mass (M) the mass of the compound (m).

n=\frac{m}{M}=6.95\cdot 10^{-3} moles      

Using (1) we have:

C=\frac{-3550}{6.95\cdot 10^{-3} 4.073}

C=1,25\cdot 10^{5} kJ/^{\circ}C

I hope it helps!
