<h2>Answer:</h2>

2Q

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

When a capacitor carries some certain charge, the energy stored in the capacitor is its electric potential energy E. The magnitude of this potential energy is given by;

E  = \frac{1}{2}qV            ------------(i)

Where;

q = charge between the plates of the capacitor

V = potential difference between the plates of the capacitor

From the question;

q = Q

E = Ep

Therefore, equation (i) becomes;

Ep = \frac{1}{2} QV              ----------------(ii)

Make V subject of the formula in equation (ii)

V = \frac{2E_{p}}{Q}

Now, when the energy is doubled i.e E = 2Ep, equation (i) becomes;

2Ep = \frac{1}{2}qV

Substitute the value of V into the equation above;

2Ep = \frac{1}{2}(q *\frac{2E_{p}}{Q})

Solve for q;

2E_{p} = \frac{2qE_p}{2Q}

2E_{p} = \frac{qE_p}{Q}

q = 2Q

Therefore, the charge, when the energy stored is twice the originally stored energy, is twice the original charge. i.e 2Q

A student performs a reaction twice. In the second trial, she raises the temperature by 20¨¬C and notices that the reaction take
Lerok [7]

Answer: She is incorrect to conclude that the reaction is endothermic.

As in the second trial, the temperature has increased by 20 °C , that means the heat has been released and energy is released in exothermic reactions.

Exothermic reactions: The reactions in which the energy of the products is less than the energy of the reactants, and the excess energy is released as heat.

Endothermic reactions: The reactions in which the energy of the products is more than the energy of the reactants, and the excess energy is absorbed as heat.

Why is acceleration of an object moving at a constant velocity always zero?
k0ka [10]

Answer:

If an object is moving with a constant velocity, then by definition it has zero acceleration. So there is no net force acting on the object. The total work done on the object is thus 0 (that's not to say that there isn't work done by individual forces on the object, but the sum is 0 ).

Explanation:

In the middle, when the object was changing position at a constant velocity, the acceleration was 0. This is because the object is no longer changing its velocity and is moving at a constant rate.

A long, current-carrying solenoid with an air core has 1800 turns per meter of length and a radius of 0.0165 m. A coil of 210 tu
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The mutual inductance is  M  =  0.000406 \  H

Explanation:

From the question we  are told that

    The  number of turns per unit length  is  N =  1800

    The radius is  r = 0.0165 \ m

     The  number of turns of the solenoid is  N_s  =  210 \ turns

   

Generally the mutual inductance of the  system is mathematically represented as

       M  =  \mu_o  *  N *  N_s  *  A

Where A is the cross-sectional area of the system which is mathematically represented as

       A  =  \pi  *  r^2

substituting values

      A  =  3.142 *  (0.0165)^2

       A  =  0.0008554 \ m^2

also   \mu_o is the permeability of free space with the value  \mu_o  =   4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2

So  

      M  =  4\pi * 10^{-7}   *1800 *  210  *  0.0008554

      M  =  0.000406 \  H
