An empty capacitor is connected to a 12.0 V battery and charged up. The capacitor is then disconnected from the battery, and a s

lab of dielectric material (dielectric constant "k" = 2.8) is inserted between the plates. Find the amount by which the potential difference accross the plates changes. Specify whether the change is an increace or a decreace.

Answer:

7.71 V

Explanation:

When the charge remains constant, the potential difference decrease by the factor of the dielectric constant K

V new = V initial / K = 12 V / 2.8 = 4.29 V

ΔV ( change in potential) = V initial - V new ( after dielectric has been added) = 12 V - 4.29 V =      7.71 V

The potential difference decreases by 7.71 V

A wave is moving at 18 m/s. If its wavelength is 3 meters, what is its frequency?
Vlada [557]

here's the solution,

we know that,

=》

wave \: speed = wavelength \times frequency

so,

=》

18 = 3 \times f

=》

f =  \dfrac{18}{3}

=》

f = 6

frequency = 6 hertz

A gun fires a bullet vertically into a 1.40-kg block of wood at rest on a thin horizontal sheet. If the bullet has a mass of 22.
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

A. 1.172 metres

B. 6.82 Ns

C. 4.796 m/s

Explanation:

The total initial momentum is gotten by multiplying the mass and initial velocity of the both bodies.

The 1.40 kg block is at rest so velocity is zero and has no momentum.

The bullet of mass 22 g = 0.022 kg with velocity of 310 m/s

Momentum = 310*0.022

Momentum = 6.82 Ns.

If the bullet gets embedded they will both have common velocity v

6.82 = (0.022+1.40)v

6.82 = 1.422v

V = 6.82/1.422

V = 4.796 m/s

How high the block will rise after the bullet is embedded is given by

H = (U²Sin²tita)/2g

Where tita is 90°

H = (4.796² * sin²(90))/(2*9.81)

H =( 23.001616*1)/19.62

H = 1.172 metres
