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

True [87]

Answer:

At the highest point the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward.

Explanation:

This is a free-fall problem, in the case of something being thrown or dropped, the acceleration is equal to -gravity, so -9.80m/s^2. So, the acceleration is never 0 here.

I attached an image from my lecture today, I find it to be helpful. You can see that because of gravity the acceleration is pulled downwards.

At the highest point the velocity is 0, but it's changing direction and that's why there's still an acceleration there.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

1.04 s

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

t = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (v/c)^2)

here

v = 0.5c

t = 1.20 -s

So,

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5/c)^2)

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5)^2)

1.20 = t' ÷ √0.75

1.20 = t' ÷ 0.866

t' = 0.866 × 1.20

= 1.04 s

The above formula should be applied
