<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

b. What would the momentum be if the mass of the bowling ball were doubled and its velocity still was 3 m/s?​
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Twice.

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by :

p = mv

Where

m is mass and v is the velocity

If the mass of the ball were doubled, m'=2m and v'=v=3 m/s

New momentum,

p'=m'v'

p'=2m × v

p'=2mv

or

p'=2p

So, the new momentum becomes twice the initial momentum.
