<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

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The answer is "\boxed{\boxed{\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2fd}{kmr^2}}}}"

Explanation:

\to d= r \theta \\\\ \to \theta =\frac{d}{r}\\\\\to \omega^{r} - \omega_{0}^{r} = 2 \alpha \theta\\\\\to \omega^{r} = 2 \alpha \theta    - \omega_{0}^{r} \\\\\to \omega^{r} = 2  (\frac{F}{Kmr}) \frac{d}{r}\\\\\to \omega = \sqrt{\frac{2fd}{kmr^2}}
