<h2>Answer:</h2>

20.6kV

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The capacitance (C₀) of a parallel plate capacitor is given by;

C₀ = A x ε₀ / d

Where;

A = Area of one of the plates = 29cm² = 0.0029m²

ε₀ = permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹²F/m

d = distance between the plates = 0.0100mm = 0.00001m

But since there is a dielectric material (nylon) between the plates, the effective capacitance (C) will increase to k x C₀.  i.e

C = k x C₀   -----------------------(i)

Where;

k = dielectric constant = 3.4 and;

C₀ = A x ε₀ / d

<em>Substitute the value of C₀ into equation (i) to give;</em>

C = k x A x ε₀ / d  -----------------(ii)

<em>Substitute the values of k, A, d and C₀ into equation (ii) to give;</em>

C = 3.4 x 0.0029 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹² / 0.00001

C = 8.7261 x 10⁻⁹ F

From the capacitance (C) calculated above, the amount of voltage(V) supplied can be found using the following relation;

Q = C x V         ------------------------------(iii)

Where Q is the charge on the capacitor = 0.18mC = 0.18 x 10⁻³C

<em>Make V the subject of the formula in equation (iii) above;</em>

V = Q / C

<em>Substitute the values of Q and C into the equation to give;</em>

V = (0.18 x 10⁻³) / (8.7261 x 10⁻⁹)

V = 0.0206 x 10⁶V

V = 20600V

V = 20.6kV

Therefore, the voltage applied in kV is 20.6

Answer:

20.60 kV

Explanation:

Capacitance of parallel plates without dielectric between them is:

C=\frac{\varepsilon_{0}A}{d}

with d the distance between the plates, A the area of the plates and ε₀ the constant 8.85419\times10^{-12}\frac{C^{2}}{Nm^{2}}, so :

C_0=\frac{(8.85419\times10^{-12})(0.0029)}{0.0100\times10^{-3}}=2.57\times10^{-9} F

But the dielectric constant is defined as:

k=\frac{C}{C_{0}}

With C the effective capacitance (with the dielectric) and Co the original capacitance (without the dielectric). So, the new capacitance is:

C=kC_0

But capacitance is related with voltage by:

C=\frac{Q}{V}

with Q the charge and V the voltage, using the new capacitance and solving for V:

kC_0=\frac{Q}{V}

V=\frac{Q}{kC_0}=\frac{0.18\times10{-3}}{(3.4)(2.57\times10^{-9})}=20599.68V=20.60 kV

If a nucleus decays by gamma decay to a daughter nucleus, which of the following statements about this decay are correct? (There
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A gamma particle is basically a photon of electromagnetic radiation with a short wavelength.

Symbol of a gamma particle is ^{0}_{0}\gamma. Hence, charge on a gamma particle is also 0.

For example, ^{234}_{91}Pa \rightarrow ^{234}_{91}Pa + ^{0}_{0}\gamma + Energy

So, when a nucleus decays by gamma decay to a daughter nucleus then there will occur no change in the number of protons and neutrons of the parent atom but there will be loss of energy as a nuclear reaction has occurred.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement daughter nucleus has the same number of nucleons as the original nucleus., is correct about if  a nucleus decays by gamma decay to a daughter nucleus.

a man crossed a road 8.25m wide at a speed of 2.01m/s,how long does it take to get man to cross the road​
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

t = 4.1 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Width of road which is to be crossed by a man is 8.25 m, it means it is distance to be covered.

Speed of man is 2.01 m/s

We need to find the time taken by the man to cross the road. It is a concept of speed. Speed of a person is given by total distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t is time taken

t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{8.25}{2.01}\\\\t=4.1\ s

So, the time taken by the man to cross the road is 4.1 seconds.

a motorcycle starts from rest covers 200 meter distance in 6 second calculate final velocity and acceleration​
Ivanshal [37]

Explanation:

s = ut + 1/2 a t^2

200 = 0 * 6 + 1/2 * a * (6)^2

200 = 1/2 * a * 36

200 = 18 a

a = 200/18

a= 11.1m/sec^2

v = u + at

v = 0 + 11.1 * 6

v = 66.6m/s

hope it helps you
