Suppose that we have a 1000pF parallel-plate capacitor with air dielectric charged to 1000V. The capacitor terminals are open ci

rcuited.
Find the stored energy. If the plates are moved farther apart so that d is doubled, determine the new voltage on the capacitor and the new stored energy.

Where did the extra energy come from?

Please show all workings & calculations on how you came to your answer.

Answer:

W = 1 mJ

V_new = 2000 V

W_new = 2 mJ

The extra energy came from the work done from moving the plates

Explanation:

We are given;

Capacitance; C = 1000pF = 10^(-9) F

Voltage; V = 1000V

Now,formula for stored energy in a parallel plate capacitor is given by;

W = (1/2)CV² = (1/2)(10^(-9))(1000²) = 0.5 mJ

However, in this case, it's W = 0.5 x 2 = 1 mJ since parallel-plate capacitor with air dielectric

When plates are moved and distance between plates is doubled(net charge is the same), thus we can calculate voltage from;

Q = CV

Since, C_new = C/2

Thus,

Q = (C/2)V_new

V_new = 2Q/C

Thus, V_new = 2V

Thus, V_new = 2 x 1000 = 2000 V

Now,

W_new = (1/2)C_new•(V_new)² = (1/2) (0.5C)•(2V)² = CV² = 2W = 2 x 1 = 2mJ

A community plans to build a facility to convert solar radiation to electrical power. The community requires 2.80 MW of power, a
Greeley [361]

Given Information:  

Output power required = Pout = 2.80 MW

Efficiency = η = 30%

Intensity = I = 1180 W/m²

Required Information:  

Effective area = A = ?

Answer:  

Effective area = A = 7.907x10³ m²

Step-by-step explanation:  

A community plans to build a facility to convert solar power into electrical power and this facility has an efficiency of 30%

As we know efficiency is given by

η = Pout/Pin

Where Pout is the output power and Pin is the input power.

Pin = Pout/η

Pin = 2.80x10⁶/0.30

Pin = 9.33x10⁶ W

The effective area of a perfectly absorbing surface used in such an installation can be found using

A = Pin/I

Where I is the in Intensity of the sunlight in W/m²

A = 9.33x10⁶/1180

A = 7.907x10³ m²

Therefore, the effective area of the absorbing surface would be 7.907x10³ m².

Let’s define a new language called dog-ish. A word is in the lan- guage dog-ish if the word contains the letters ’d’, ’o’, ’g’ a
attashe74 [19]

Answer and Explanation:

// code

class Main {

   public static void main(String[] args) {

       /*

        *

        *

        * your code

        *

        */

       System.out.println(inDogish("aplderogad"));

       System.out.println(inXish("aplderogad", "dog"));

   }

   // returns true if the word is in dog-ish

   // returns false if word is not in dog-ish

   public static boolean inDogish(String word) {

       // first find d

       if (dogishHelper(word, 'd')) {

           // first find string after d

           String temp = word.substring(word.indexOf("d"));

           // find o

           if (dogishHelper(temp, 'o')) {

               // find string after o

               temp = temp.substring(temp.indexOf("o"));

               // find g

               if (dogishHelper(temp, 'g'))

                   return true;

           }

The output is attached below

       }

       return false;

   }

   // necessary to implement inDogish recursively

   public static boolean dogishHelper(String word, char letter) {

       // end of string

       if (word.length() == 0)

           return false;

       // letter found

       if (word.charAt(0) == letter)

           return true;

       // search in next index

       return dogishHelper(word.substring(1), letter);

   }

   // a generalized version of the inDogish method

   public static boolean inXish(String word, String x) {

       if (x.length() == 0)

           return true;

       if (word.length() == 0)

           return false;

       if (word.charAt(0) == x.charAt(0))

           return inXish(word.substring(1), x.substring(1));

       return inXish(word.substring(1), x.substring(0));

   }

}
