Complete Question

A parallel-plate capacitor, with air dielectric, is charged by a battery, after which the battery is disconnected. A slab of glass dielectric is then slowly inserted between the plates. As it is being inserted,  

A :

a force repels the glass out of the capacitor.  

B :

a force attracts the glass into the capacitor.    

C :

no force acts on the glass.      

D :

a net charge appears on the glass.      

E :

the glass makes the plates repel each other.

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

Generally when the glass dielectric is slowly inserted between the plated,

The positive plate of the capacitor will induce a negative charge on the glass while the negative  plate of the capacitor will induce a positive charge on glass which a electric field that posses an electric force that will attract the glass

If a an object is traveling at a rate of 5 meters per second squared with a force of 10 Newtons, what is the mass of the object?
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

2 kg

Explanation:

Acceleration = 5 m/s^2

Force = 10 N

Force = mass * acceleration

mass = force / acceleration

mass = 10 / 5

mass = 2 kg

Two polarizing sheets have their transmission axes crossed so that no light is transmitted. A third sheet is inserted so that it
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a)    I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)    b) 75.5º

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we must use Malus's law

         I = I₀ cos² θ

where tea is the angle between the two polarizers.

We apply this expression to our case

* Polarizer 1 suppose that it is vertical and polarizer 2 (intermediate) is at an angle θ with respect to the vertical

         I₁ = I₀ cos² θ

* We analyze for the polarity 2 and the last polarizer 3 which indicate that it must be at 90º from the first one, therefore it must be horizontal.

The angle of polarizers 2 and 3 is θ' measured from the horizontal, if we measure with respect to the vertical

              θ₂ = 90- θ’ = θ

fiate that in the exercise we must take a reference system and measure everything with respect to this system.

          I = I₁ cos² θ'

       

we substitute

         I = (I₀ cos² tea) cos² (θ - 90)

        cos (θ -90) = cos θ cos 90 + sin θ sin 90 = sin θ

         I = Io cos² θ sin² θ

        1= cos²θ+ sin²θ

       sin²θ = 1 - cos²θ

        I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)

b) to find when the intensity is maximum,

we can use that we have an extreme point when the drift is zero

          \frac{dI}{d \theta} = 0

          \frac{dI}{d \theta}= Io (2 cos θ - 4 cos³θ) = 0

whereby

            cos θ - 2 cos³ θ = 0

            cos θ ( 1 - 2 cos² θ) = 0  

The zeros of this function are in

           θ = 90º

           1-2cos²θ =0       cos θ = 0.25  θ =  75.5º

Let's analyze this two results for the angle of 90º the intnesidd is zero with respect to the first polarizer, so it is not an acceptable solution.

Consequently, the angle that allows the maximum intensity to pass is 75.5º

If a car accelerates uniformly from rest to 15 meters
Talja [164]

Answer:

1.125m/s^2

Explanation:

Since acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with respect to time. Mathematically

v^2= u^2+2as

Where a,v,u and s are the acceleration, final velocity, initial velocity and distance respectively.

a = ?

u = 0m/s

v = 15m/s

s = 100m

Substituting the values into the formula above

v^2= u^2+2as

15^2=0^2+2×a×100

225= 0+200a

225= 200a

Divide both sides by 200

225/200 = 200a/200

a= 1.125m/s^2

Hence the acceleration of the car is 1.125m/s^2.

Note that the car accelerated uniformly from rest, that was why the initial velocity was 0m/s

Is our body in thermal equilibrium with the environment ?​
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The human body runs at a constant 37 ºC but the air around you at room temperature is about 20-25 ºC which means heat is constantly leaving your body to warm your surroundings and maintain thermal equilibrium. You don't lose much energy doing this however as air heats reasonably quickly
