An empty parallel plate capacitor is connected between the terminals of a 9.0-V battery and charged up. The capacitor is then di

sconnected from the battery, and the spacing between the capacitor plates is doubled. As a result of this change, what is the new voltage between the plates of the capacitor

Answer:

The new voltage between the plates of the capacitor is 18 V

Explanation:

The charge on parallel plate capacitor is calculated as;

q = CV

Where;

V is the battery voltage

C is the capacitance of the capacitor, calculated as;

C = \frac{\epsilon _0A}{d} \\\\q =CV = (\frac{\epsilon _0A}{d})V = \frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d}

q = \frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d}

where;

ε₀ is permittivity of free space

A is the area of the capacitor

d is the space between the parallel plate capacitors

If only the space between the capacitors is doubled and every other parameter is kept constant, the new voltage will be calculated as;

q = \frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d} \\\\\frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d}  = \frac{\epsilon _0A V}{d} \\\\\frac{V_1}{d_1}  = \frac{V_2}{d_2} \\\\V_2 = \frac{V_1d_2}{d_1} \\\\(d_2 = 2d_1)\\\\V_2 = \frac{V_1*2d_1}{d_1} \\\\(V_1 = 9V)\\\\V_2 = \frac{9*2d_1}{d_1} \\\\V_2 = 9*2\\\\V_2 = 18 \ V

Therefore, the new voltage between the plates of the capacitor is 18 V

what is the transfer of heat energy by direct contact. A . convection b. radiation c. thermal or heat and d. conduction ​
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

d. conduction ​

Explanation:

Conduction involves the transfer of electric charge or thermal energy due to the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

In conclusion, conduction typically involves the transfer of heat energy by direct contact between two or more conductors such as a pot and electric cooker.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

change of momentum does not depend on the mass of the cars, as the force and time are the same all vehicles have the same change of momentum

Explanation:

Let's look for the speed of the car

     F = m a

    a = F / m

We use kinematics to find lips

    v = v₀ + a t

    v = v₀ + (F / m) t

The moment is defined by

    p = m v

The moment change

    Δp = m v - m v₀

Let's replace the speeds in this equation

    Δp = m (v₀ + F / m t) - m v₀

    Δp = m v₀  + F t - m v₀  

    Δp = F t

We see that the change of momentum does not depend on the mass of the cars, as the force and time are the same all vehicles have the same change of momentum

Earthquakes that originate beneath the ocean floor produce huge tidal waves called _____.
ololo11 [35]

Answer;

-Tsunami

Explanation;

-Tsunami  is a series of large ocean waves (or "wave train") of extremely long wavelength and period, usually generated when a gigantic body of water, such as an ocean, is suddenly displaced on a massive scale by an underwater disturbance such as an earthquake occurring on or near the sea floor or a volcanic eruption.

-After a sudden displacement of a large water volume by seismic activity (earthquake), the ocean floor is raised or dropped and large tsunami waves can be formed by gravitational forces.

PLEASE HELP ME I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR HOURS!! How do some carnivorous plants avoid beginning the digestion process from an a
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Once a carnivorous plant has procured an item for dinner, it has to have some way to turn it into fertilizer. What carnivorous plants do is very similar to what humans do with their dinner after they have eaten it. Most carnivorous plants have glands that secrete acids and enzymes to dissolve proteins and other compounds. The plants may also enlist other organisms to help with digestion. The plants then absorb the nutrients made available from the prey.

Drosera releases digestive juices through the glands at the tip of its tentacles and absorbs the nutrients through the tentacles, leaf surface, and sessile glands. In order to do this it bends its tentacles and rolls or bends the leaf to get as many tentacles as possible into contact with the prey for digestion and to make as much leaf surface available for absorption. Its relative Drosophyllum has differently structured, non moving tentacles and doesn't use them directly for digestion. Instead it has specialized glands on the surface of the leaf that release the digestive enzymes (see Carniv. Pl. Newslett. 11(3):66-73 ( PDF ) for drawings and discussion).

The sealed trap of Dionaea does digestion in a way similar to the leaf surface digestion carnivores—upon capture of a prey, digestive enzymes in mucous are released. The advantage of the sealed trap of Dionaea is rain won't wash away the nutrients as digestion proceeds.

The sealed trap carnivores Aldrovanda and Utricularia already have water in their traps so they only need to release enzymes. Utricularia appears to release the enzymes continuously into its traps.

The other carnivorous plants use either a mixed mode of digestive enzymes and partner organisms (Genlisea, Sarracenia, most Nepenthes, Cephalotus, some Heliamphora, Roridula) or other organisms exclusively for digestion (most Heliamphora, some Nepenthes, Darlingtonia). Part of the reason for partnering with other organisms is that the plants actually have little choice in the matter. This could also be a factor for the leaf surface and sealed trap digesters as well. The prey will have gut flora that are quite capable of digesting their host when it dies. In addition, insect larvae, frog tadpoles, and predacious protozoans will or will attempt to take up residence in water-filled traps. The plant releasing digestive enzymes and acids into the traps will help tip the nutrition balance to themselves, but there are limits.
