A capacitor consists of two closely spaced metal conductors of large area, separated by a thin insulating foil. It has an electr

ical capacity of 3000.0 μF and is charged to a potential difference of 60.0 V. Calculate the amount of energy stored in the capacitor. Tries 0/20 Calculate the charge on this capacitor when the electrical energy stored in the capacitor is 6.53 J. Tries 0/20 If the two plates of the capacitor have their separation increased by a factor of 5 while the charge on the plates remains constant, by what factor is the energy stored in the capacitor increased?

Answer:

1 = 5.4 J

2 = 0.1979 C

3 = 5

Explanation:

Energy in a capacitor, E is

E = 1/2 * C * V²

E = 1/2 * 3000*10^-6 * 60²

E = 1/2 * 3000*10^-6 * 3600

E = 1/2 * 10.8

E = 5.4 J

E = Q²/2C = 6.53 J

E * 2C = Q²

Q² = 6.53 * 2 * 3000*10^-6

Q² = 13.06 * 3000*10^-6

Q² = 0.03918

Q = √0.03918

Q = 0.1979 C

The Capacitor, C is inversely proportional to the distance of separation, D. Thus, if D is increased by 5 to be 5D, then C would be C/5. And therefore, our energy stored in the capacitor is increased by a factor of 5.

Let the displacement function of a particle is x(t)=(20t^2-15t+200). Find the total displacement, instantaneous velocity and ins
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

A.) 39.5 m

B.) 0

C.) 60m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that a displacement function of a particle is x(t)=(20t^2-15t+200).

To Find the total displacement,

Reduce everything by dividing them by 5

X(t) = 4t^2 - 3t + 40 ...... (1)

For instantaneous velocity, differentiate x(t). That is,

dy/dt = 60t - 15 ...... (2)

But dy/dt = velocity.

If dy/dt = 0, then

60t - 15 = 0

60t = 15

t = 15/60

t = 0.25s

Substitutes t in equation (1)

Total displacement will be

X(t) = 4(0.25)^2 - 3(0.25) + 40

X(t) = 0.25 - 0.75 + 40

Total displacement = 39.5 m

To calculate instantaneous velocity, substitute t into equation (2)

V = 60 (0.25) - 15

V = 0.

and to find instantaneous acceleration, differentiate dv/dt

dv/dt = 60

Therefore, acceleration = 60 m/s^2

A block of wood is 4 cm wide, 5 cm long, and 10 cm high. It weighs 100 grams. Calculate its volume. Calculate its density. Will
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

V=200cm^3\\\\\rho =0.500g/cm^3

It will float.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, given the width, length and height, we can compute the volume as follows:

V=W*L*H\\\\V=4cm*5cm*10cm\\\\V=200cm^3

Moreover, since the density is computed via the division of the mass by the volume:

\rho =\frac{m}{V}

We obtain:

\rho =\frac{100g}{200cm^3} \\\\\rho =0.500g/cm^3

In such a way, since the solid has a lower density than the water, we infer it will float.

Best regards.

Light shined through a single slit will produce a diffraction pattern. Green light (565 nm) is shined on a slit with width 0.210
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:(a)9.685 mm

(b)4.184 mm

Explanation:

Given

Wavelength of light (\lambda )=565nm \approx 565\times 10^{-9}m

Width of slit(b)=0.210

(a)Width of central maximum located 1.80m from slit

=\frac{2\lambda L}{b}

=\frac{2\times 565\times 10^{-9}\times 1.8}{0.210\times 10^{-3}}

=9.685 mm

(b)Width of the first order bright fringe

Y_1=\frac{\lambda \times L}{b}

Y_1=\frac{565\times 10^{-9}\times 1.8}{0.210\times 10^{-3}}

Y_1=4.84mm

Why are we not crushed by the weight of the atmosphere on our shoulders?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Due to equal pressure in all the direction at a particular level in a fluid medium (Pascal's Law)

Explanation:

We are not crushed by the weight of the atmosphere because atmosphere is a fluid and we are immersed into it. So, according to the Pascal's law the the pressure a each point in a horizontal level is equal in all the direction irrespective of the orientation of a body.

Variation of pressure in term of the height of a fluid medium is given as:

P=\rho.g.h

\rho=density of fluid

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of the free surface of the fluid from the immersed object.

  • And atmosphere has very less variation of pressure with change in height as it is a rare medium fluid and so for a human height there is very negligible variation of pressure at the heat of a human with respect to his toe.
