a large parallel plate capacitor has plate seperation of 1.00 cm and plate area of 314 cm^2. The capacitor is connected across a

voltage of 20.0 V and has air betweeen the plates. How much work is done on the capacitor as the plate seperation is inceased to 2.00 cm?

Answer:

W = -2.76\times 10^{-9}~J

Explanation:

The work done on the capacitor is equal to the difference in potential energy stored in the capacitor in two different cases.

The potential energy is given by the following formula:

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

where C can be calculated using the plate separation and area.

C = \epsilon\frac{A}{d} = \epsilon\frac{0.0314}{0.01} = 3.14\epsilon

Therefore, the potential energy in the first case is

U = \frac{1}{2}3.14\epsilon (20)^2 = 628\epsilon

In the second case:

C_2 = \epsilon\frac{A}{d} = \epsilon\frac{0.0314}{0.02} = 1.57\epsilon\\U = \frac{1}{2}C_2 V^2 = \frac{1}{2}1.57\epsilon (20)^2 = 314\epsilon

The permittivity of the air is very close to that of vacuum, which is 8.8 x 10^-12.

So, the difference in the potential energy is

W = U_2 - U_1 = \epsilon(314 - 628) = -314 \times 8.8 \times 10^{-12} = -2.76\times 10^{-9}~J

If a car takes a banked curve at less than the ideal speed, friction is needed to keep it from sliding toward the inside of the
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

a. v₁ = 16.2 m/s

b. μ = 0.251

Explanation:

Given:

θ = 15 ° , r = 100 m , v₂ = 15.0 km / h

a.

To determine v₁ to take a 100 m radius curve banked at 15 °

tan θ  = v₁² / r * g

v₁ = √ r * g * tan θ

v₁ = √ 100 m * 9.8 m/s² * tan 15° = 16.2 m/s

b.

To determine μ friction needed for a frightened

v₂ = 15.0 km / h * 1000 m / 1 km * 1h / 60 minute * 1 minute / 60 seg

v₂ = 4.2 m/s

fk = μ * m * g

a₁ = v₁² / r = 16.2 ² / 100 m = 2.63 m/s²

a₂ = v₂² / r = 4.2 ² / 100 m = 0.18 m/s²

F₁ = m * a₁  ,  F₂ = m * a₂

fk = F₁ - F₂   ⇒  μ * m * g = m * ( a₁ - a₂)

μ * g = a₁ - a₂   ⇒  μ = a₁ - a₂ / g

μ = [ 2.63 m/s² - 0.18 m/s² ] / (9.8 m/s²)

μ = 0.251

The initial volume reading in a graduated cylinder is 30 mL. The mass of an irregular shape of an unknown metal piece is 55.3 g.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

7.9\frac{gr}{cm^3}

Explanation:

When we put the metal piece in the liquid (which is in the graduated cylinder), how much it goes up is equal to the volume of the piece we inserted.

So now we know that the volume of that piece of unknown metal is 7mL (which is the same as 7cm^3).

Density is \frac{mass}{volume}.

So the density of that piece of metal is \frac{55.3g}{7cm^3}

Which leaves us with a final density of 7.9\frac{gr}{cm^3}

An electrical motor spins at a constant 1975.0 rpm. If the armature radius is 7.112 cm, what is the acceleration of the edge of
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since value of angular acceleration is constant, the body has only centripetal acceleration.

Centripetal acceleration

               a=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{(r\omega )^2}{r}=r\omega ^2

We have radius = 7.112 cm = 0.07112 m

Frequency, f = 1975 rpm = 32.92 rps

Angular frequency, ω = 2πf = 2 x π x 32.92 = 206.82 rad/s

Substituting in centripetal acceleration equation,

              a=r\omega ^2=0.07112\times 206.82^2=3042.17m/s^2

Option D is the correct answer.

A 85 kg lineman tackles a 90 kg receiver. The receiver is running 5.8 m/s, and the lineman is moving 4.1 m/s, at a right angle t
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

3.59 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of lineman,m=85 kg

Mass of receiver,m'=90 kg

Speed of receiver,v'=5.8 m/s

Speed of lineman,v=4.1 m/s

\theta=90^{\circ}

We have to find the their velocity immediately after the tackle.

Initial momentum,P_i=\sqrt{p^2_1+p^2_2}=\sqrt{(85\times 4.1)^2+(90\times 5.8)^2}=627.6 kgm/s

According to law of conservation of momentum

Initial momentum=Final momentum=(m+m')V

627.6=(85+90)V=175V

V=\frac{627.6}{175}=3.59 m/s

A student of weight 652 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of person W=652\ N

At highest point Magnitude of the normal force F=585\ N

net force at highest point

F_{net}=W+F_c

where F_c= centripetal force

F_c=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

F_{net}=F_{n}= Normal Force

585=652+F_c

F_c=-67\ N

Negative sign shows force is in upward direction

At bottom point centripetal force is towards the bottom

F_n=F_c+W

F_n=652+67

F_n=719\ N
