Answer:

(a) Energy stored is 2.63×10^-5 J

(b) Energy stored is 6.56×10^-6 J

(c) Work required is 8.75×10^-6 J

Explanation:

(a) C = AEo/d

A is area of plates = 451 cm^2 = 451/10000 = 0.0451 m^2

Eo is permutivity constant = 8.84×10^-12 F/m

d is separation between the plates = 2.51 mm = 2.51/1000 = 2.51×10^-3 m

C = 0.0451 × 8.84×10^-12/2.51×10^-3 = 1.59×10^-10 F

E = 1/2CV^2 = 1/2 × 1.59×10^-10 × 575^2 = 2.63×10^-5 J

(b) d = 10.04 mm = 10.04/1000 = 0.01004 m

C = 0.0451 × 8.84×10^-12/0.01004 = 3.97×10^-11 F

E = 1/2CV^2 = 1/2 × 3.97×10^-11 × 575^2 = 6.56×10^-6 J

(c) d = 10.04 mm - 2.51 mm = 7.53 mm = 7.53/1000 = 7.53×10^-3 m

C = 0.0451 × 8.84×10^-12/7.53×10^-3 = 5.29×10^-11 F

W = 1/2CV^2 = 1/2 × 5.29×10^-11 × 575^2 = 8.75×10^-6 J

Answer:

A. E = 2.63×10^-5 J.

B. E = 6.56×10^-6 J.

C. W = 8.75×10^-6 J.

Explanation:

A.

C = A * Eo/d

Where,

Eo = free space permutivity

= 8.84×10^-12 F/m

d = distance between the plates

A = area of plates

= 451 cm^2.

Converting from cm to m,

100 cm = 1 m

= 451 * 1/(100)^2 cm

= 0.0451 m^2

d = 2.51 mm

Converting from mm to m,

1000 mm to m

= 2.51 mm * 1 m/1000 mm

= 2.51 × 10^-3 m

Therefore,

C = 0.0451 × (8.84 × 10^-12/2.51 × 10^-3)

= 1.59 × 10^-10 F

E = 1/2 * C * V^2

= 1/2 × 1.59 × 10^-10 × (575^2)

= 2.63 × 10^-5 J.

B.

d = 10.04 mm

Converting from mm to m,

1000 mm = 1 m

= 10.04 * 1 m/1000 mm

= 0.01004 m.

C = 0.0451 × (8.84 × 10^-12/0.01004)

= 3.97 × 10^-11 F

E = 1/2CV^2

= 1/2 × 3.97 × 10^-11 × (575^2)

= 6.56 × 10^-6 J

C.

d = 10.04 mm - 2.51 mm

= 7.53 mm

Converting from mm to m,

1000 mm = 1 m

= 7.53 * 1 m/1000 mm

= 7.53 × 10^-3 m

C = 0.0451 × (8.84 × 10^-12/7.53×10^-3)

= 5.29 × 10^-11 F

W = 1/2 * C * V^2

= 1/2 × (5.29 × 10^-11 × (575^2))

= 8.75 × 10^-6 J

Why are some liquids more viscous than others?
Arlecino [84]
<span>The force that opposes the movement of an object through water is called drag. This is a type of frictional force. This force normally depends on the density and the viscosity of the fluid in question. The liquid which has more density and more viscosity or stickiness will produce a greater amount of drag force on an object than a fluid that is less dense and less viscous in nature.  River water normally has less drag than that of sea water. </span><span> <span>

Answer:

<em>The angle introduces an error on the mesure of the weight</em>

Explanation:

<u><em>Weight and Normal Forces</em></u>

When an object is resting on a horizontal surface, its weight is directed downwards and the normal force has the same magnitude and opposite direction, i.e. directed upwards. When some angle α exists between the surface and the horizontal plane, the scale keeps 'feeling' the Normal force, but it's not equal to the weight anymore, but to the perpendicular component of the weight to the surface where the scale is placed. It can be found that the component of the weight is m.g.cosα

If, for example \alpha=10^o, the real measure is

m.g.cos 10^o=0.985(mg)

That is, 98.5% of the correct weight. So it's important to measure weight on horizontal surfaces
