Given a 9.7 pF air-filled capacitor, you are asked to convert it to a capacitor that can store up to 7.7 µJ with a maximum poten

tial difference of 550 V. What must be the dielectric constant of the material that you should you use to fill the gap in the air capacitor if you do not allow for a margin of error?

Answer:

ε = 5.24

Explanation:

In order to find the values of the dielectric constant of some material, which allows one to store an energy  of 7.7µJ, you use the following formula:

E=\frac{1}{2}CV^2       (1)

C: capacitance  = 9.7 pF

V: potential difference on the capacitor = 550 V

E: energy storage on the capacitor

Furthermore, you take into account that, when a dielectric material is included in the capacitor, its capacitance is modified as follow:

C'=\epsilon C

To find the value of ε, you use the equation (1), but for C = C'.

E=\frac{1}{2}C'V^2=\frac{1}{2}\epsilon CV^2      (2)

Then, you solve for ε in the previous equation:

\epsilon=\frac{2E}{CV^2}=\frac{2(7.7*10^{-6}J)}{(9.7*10^{-12}F)(550V)^2}\\\\\epsilon=5.24

The dielectric constant of the material required is 5.24

A space station in the shape of a 100 m-diameter (50m radius) wheel is spinning so as to impart a linear tangential speed of 22.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

correct option is b. 31.3 m/s

Explanation:

given data

artificial gravity a1 = 1 g

artificial gravity a2 = 2 g

diameter = 100 m

radius  r= 50 m

speed v1 = 22.1 m/s

solution

As acceleration is  ∝ v²

so we can say

\frac{a2}{a1} = \frac{v2}{v1}    .....................1

put here value

\frac{2}{1} = \frac{v2}{22.1}  

solve it

v2 = \sqrt{2 } × 22.1

v2 = 31.25 m/s

so correct option is b. 31.3 m/s

murzikaleks [220]
The description of the question provided above points out to the famous Big Bang Theory. In addition, this theory is among the most accepted by cosmologists because it fits like a glove to the phenomenon the universe is experiencing right now: it is expanding and distances between celestial bodies are getting farther and farther.
