A certain parallel-plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric for which Κ = 5.5 .The area of each plate is 0.034 m2 , and the p

lates are separated by 2.0 mm. The capacitor will fail (short out and burn up) if the electric field between the plates exceeds 200 kN/C. What is the maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor?

Answer:

The maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor is  6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

Explanation:

Given that,

dielectric constant k = 5.5

the area of each plate, A = 0.034 m²

separating distance, d =  2.0 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

magnitude of the electric field =  200 kN/C

Capacitance of the capacitor is calculated as follows;

C = \frac{k \epsilon A}{d} = \frac{5.5*8.85*10^{-12}*0.034}{2*10^{-3}} = 8.275 *10^{-10} \ F

Maximum potential difference:

V = E x d

V = 200000 x 2 x 10⁻³ = 400 V

Maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor:

E = ¹/₂CV²

E = ¹/₂ x 8.275 x 10⁻¹⁰ x (400)²

E = 6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

Therefore, the maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor is  6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

Range of a projectile motion is given by
R = v cos θ / g (v sin θ + sqrt(v^2 sin^2 θ + 2gy_0)); where R = 188m, θ = 41°, g = 9.8m/s^2, y_0 = 0.9

188 = v cos 41° / 9.8 (v sin 41° + sqrt(v^2 sin^2 41° + 2 x 9.8 x 0.9)) = 0.07701(0.6561v + sqrt(0.4304 v^2 + 17.64)) = 0.05053v + 0.07701sqrt(0.4304v^2 + 17.64)
0.07701sqrt(0.4304v^2 + 17.64) = 188 - 0.05053v
0.005931(0.4304v^2 + 17.64) = 35344 - 19v + 0.002553v^2
0.002553v^2 + 0.1046 = 35344 - 19v + 0.002553v^2
19v = 35344 - 0.1046 = 35343.8954
v = 35343.8954/19 = 1860 m/s
