Answer:

C

Explanation:

Using the two formulas q =CV and C =<em>∈A/d where q = charge, C = Capacitance, V =Voltage, ∈=permittivity of dielectric, A = area of plates and d = distance between plates. </em>Increasing the plate separation decreases the Capacitance thereby decreasing the charge also.

Answer:

A) The energy stored in the capacitor increases.

Explanation:

For a capacitor fully charged by battery, when disconnected from battery and the plate separation is increased. The charge on the plate remain constant because there is no where for it to go( it has been disconnected from battery). But the capacitance would decrease, while also the potential difference would increase.

Q = CV ....1

Q is the charge, C is capacitance, V is the potential difference.

The energy stored in a capacitor is given by:

E = 1/2 CV^2

E = 1/2 QV .......2

E is the energy stored in the capacitor,

Therefore since Q remain constant and V increases when the distance between the plates is increased, then according to the equation 2 above the energy stored in the capacitor increases.

Answer:

Velocity is a change in displacement over change in time and uses the units m/s.

Both are rates of change and can be positive or negative.

Acceleration is a change in velocity over change in time and uses the units m/s².

Explanation:

Velocity is the change in displacement over change in time, this makes it a rate of change. It can be positive or negative because it is a vector quantity. It uses the units m/s because that is a displacement unit over a time unit.

Acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time, this makes it a rate of change. It can be positive or negative because it is also a vector quantity. It uses the units m/s² (m/s/s) because that is a velocity unit over a time unit.

Which data set has the smallest standard deviation?
hjlf

Answer:

B. 22,22,23,23,22,22,23

Explanation:

The standard deviation is a measure of dispersion or variability of a data set. In order to determine the data set that has the smallest standard deviation, we shall investigate on the ranges of the data sets given. The range of a data set is simply the difference between the maximum and minimum values in a data set. A data set that has a smaller range also has a smaller standard deviation.

From the alternatives given, the data set given by alternative B has the smallest range and consequently the smallest standard deviation.

The maximum value is 23 while the minimum is 22. The range is 1.
