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

Which type of bone is this <br>covalent bond<br>hydrogen bond <br>ionic bond​
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Explanation:A covalent bond is formed when electrons are shared between non-metal atoms, and the positive nuclei are attracted towards the pair of negative bonded electrons. ... Hence, the hydrogen bond is weaker than ionic and covalent bonds. Example: Water molecules are held to each other by intermolecular forces of attraction.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

the displacement of the object is 5 units

Explanation:

The computation of the displacement of the object is shown below:

= Move to the right + move to the right - move to the left

= 6 units + 3 units - 4 units

= 9 units - 4 units

= 5 units

Hence, the displacement of the object is 5 units

How does air pressure change with altitude?
charle [14.2K]
Air pressure changes with altitude because of issues related to gravity. Molecules have more weight the closer they are to the Earth and more of them move to lower elevations as a result; this causes increased pressure because there are more molecules in number and proximity. Conversely, air at higher elevations has less weight, but also forces pressure on those layers below it, resulting in the molecules closer to the Earth supporting more weight, increasing the pressure
