Answer:
A) 26V
Explanation:
(a) the potential difference between the plates
Initial capacitance can be calculated using below expresion
C1= A ε0/ d1
Where d1= distance between = 2.70 mm= 2.70× 10^-3 m
ε0= permittivity of space= 8.85× 10^-12 Fm^-1
A= area of the plate = 7.90 cm2 = 7.90 ×10^-4 m^2
If we substitute the values we
C1= A ε0/ d1
=( 7.90 ×10^-4 × 8.85× 10^-12 )/2.70× 10^-3
C1=2.589 ×10^-12 F= 2.59 pF
Initial charge can be determined using below expresion
q1= C1 × V1
V1=2.589 ×10^-12 F
V1= voltage=7.90 V
If we substitute we have
q1= 2.589 ×10^-12 × 7.90
q1= 20.45×10^-12C
20.45 pC
Final capacitance can be calculated as
C2= A ε0/ d2
d2=8.80 mm= /8.80× 10^-3
7.90 ×10^-4 × 8.85× 10^-12 )/8.80× 10^-3
C1=0.794 ×10^-12 F= 0.794 pF
Final charge= initial charge
q2=q1 (since the battery is disconnected)
q2=q1= 20.45 pC
Final potential difference
V2= q/C2
= 20.45/0.794
= 26V
3. Sand has a low specific heat compared to air
Answer:
about 4 km
Explanation:
15 minutes is a quarter of an hour, so you divide 16km by 4 to get your answer
Answer:
The value of change in internal l energy of the gas = 1850 J
Explanation:
Work done on the gas (W) = - 1850 J
Negative sign is due to work done on the system.
From the first law we know that Q = Δ U + W ------------- (1)
Where Q = Heat transfer to the gas
Δ U = Change in internal energy of the gas
W = work done on the gas
Since it is adiabatic compression of the gas so heat transfer to the gas is zero.
⇒ Q = 0
So from equation (1)
⇒ Δ U = - W ----------------- (2)
⇒ W = - 1850 J (Given)
⇒ Δ U = - (- 1850)
⇒ Δ U = + 1850 J
This is the value of change in internal energy of the gas.
