Answer:

The strength of the electric field between the plates of the capacitor decreases during this process.

Explanation:

The strength of electric field between the plates of a capacitor is given as

E = (V/d)

where V = potential difference across the plates of the capacitor

And d = distance between the two places

So, if the potential difference across the plates of the capacitor stays constant, the electric field strength varies inversely as the distance between the plates.

Therefore, as the plates of the capacitor are pulled apart, with distance between them increasing (with constant voltage maintained across the plates), the strength of the electric field between the plates decreases.

Hope this Helps!!

The component of the external magnetic field along the central axis of a 78-turn circular coil of radius 34.0 cm decreases from

grigory [225]

Answer:

Induced current, I = 18.88 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Number of turns, N = 78

Radius of the circular coil, r = 34 cm = 0.34 m

Magnetic field changes from 2.4 T to 0.4 T in 2 s.

Resistance of the coil, R = 1.5 ohms

We need to find the magnitude of the induced current in the coil. The induced emf is given by :

$\epsilon=-N\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}$

Where

$\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}$ is the rate of change of magnetic flux,

And $\phi=BA$

$\epsilon=-NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}$

$\epsilon=-78\times \pi (0.34)^2\dfrac{(0.4-2.4)}{2}$

$\epsilon=28.32\ V$

Using Ohm's law, $\epsilon=I\times R$

Induced current, $I=\dfrac{\epsilon}{R}$

$I=\dfrac{28.32}{1.5}$

I = 18.88 A

So, the magnitude of the induced current in the coil is 18.88 A. Hence, this is the required solution.

Lorico [155]

Answer:

269 m

45 m/s

-58.6 m/s

Explanation:

Part 1

First, find the time it takes for the package to land. Take the upward direction to be positive.

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = -175 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(-175 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 5.98 s

Next, find the horizontal distance traveled in that time:

Given (in the x direction):

v₀ = 45 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 5.98 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (45 m/s) (5.98 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (5.98 s)²

Δx = 269 m

Part 2

Given (in the x direction):

v₀ = 45 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 5.98 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (0 m/s²) (5.98 s) + (45 m/s

v = 45 m/s

Part 3

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = -175 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) (-175 m)

v = -58.6 m/s

This one question is on fotoeletric effect. Does the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons from metal depends on the intensity

grandymaker [24]

Energy of one photon = kinetic energy of photoelectron + work function energy of metal.
Intensity of radiation is proportional to the number of photons arriving per second

Answer: There is greater genetic variety in offspring.

Explanation: This is because with asexual reproduction it is faster, but the offspring is identical to the parent. While sexual reproduction is slower yes, but there is a variety in genetics.

Hope this helps!

A light-rail train going from one station to the next on a straight section of track accelerates from rest at 1.1 m/s^2 for 20s.

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

A) The distance between the stations is 1430m

B) The time it takes the train to go between the stations is 80s

Explanation:

First we will calculate the distance covered for the first 20s.

From one the equations of kinematics for linear motion

$S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2} \\$

Where $S$ is distance traveled

$u$ is the initial velocity

$t$ is time

and $a$ is acceleration

Since the train starts from rest, $u$ = 0 m/s

Hence, for the first 20s

$a =$ 1.1 m/s²; $t =$ 20s, $u$ = 0 m/s

∴ $S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2} \\$ gives

$S = (0)(20) + \frac{1}{2}(1.1)(20)^{2}$

$S = \frac{1}{2}(1.1)(20)^{2}$

$S =$ 220m

This is the distance covered in the first 20s.

The train then proceeds at constant speed for 1100m.

Now, we will calculate the speed attained here

From

$v = u +at$

Where $v$ is the final velocity

Hence,

$v = 0 + 1.1(20)$

$v = 1.1(20)$

$v =$ 22 m/s

This is the constant speed attained when it proceeds for 1100m

The train then slows down at a rate of 2.2 m/s² until it stops

We can calculate the distance covered while slowing down from

$v^{2} = u^{2} + 2as$

The initial velocity, $u$ here will be the final velocity before it started slowing down

∴ $u$ = 22 m/s

The final velocity will be 0, since it came to a stop.

∴ $v$ = 0 m/s

$a = -$ 2.2 m/s² ( - indicates deceleration)

Hence,

$v^{2} = u^{2} + 2as$ gives

$0^{2} =22^{2} +2(-2.2)s$

$0=22^{2} - (4.4)s\\4.4s = 484\\s = \frac{484}{4.4} \\s = 110m$

This is the distance traveled while slowing down.

A) The distance between the stations is

220m + 1100m + 110m

= 1430m

Hence, the distance between the stations is 1430m

B) The time it takes the train to go between the stations

The time spent while accelerating at 1.1 m/s² is 20s

We will calculate the time spent when it proceeds at a constant speed of 22 m/s for 1100m,

From,

$Speed =\frac{Distance}{Time}\\$

Then,

$Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}$

$Time = \frac{1100}{22}$

Time = 50 s

And then, the time spent while decelerating (that is, while slowing down)

From,

$v = u + at\\0 = 22 +(-2.2)t\\2.2t = 22\\t = \frac{22}{2.2} \\t= 10 s$

This is the time spent while slowing down until it stops at the station.

Hence, The time it takes the train to go between the stations is

20s + 50s + 10s = 80s

The time it takes the train to go between the stations is 80s
