Power= current*voltage or P=IV

so 16 watts=I*7 volts

divide on both sides to isolate I so you get

I= 16/7 which is about 2.3 amps

a. When the electric field between the plates is 75% of the dielectric strength and energy density of the stored energy is 2800

Olegator [25]

Answer: The value of the dielectric constant k = 1.8

Explanation:

If C= ε A/d and

Electrostatic energy W = 1/2CV^2

Substitutes C in the first formula into the energy formula.

W = 1/2 ε A/d × V^2

Let us remember that electric field strength E is the ratio of potential V to the distance d. Where V = Ed

Substitute V = Ed into the energy W.

W = 1/2 × ε A/d ×( Ed )^2

W = 1/2 × ε A/d × E^2 × d^2

d will cancel one of the ds

W = 1/2 × ε Ad × E^2

W/Ad = 1/2 × ε × E^2

W/V = 1/2 × ε E^2

Where Ad = volume V

E = dielectric strength

εo = permittivity of free space = 8.84 x 10^-12 F/m

W/V = 2800 J/m^3

Let first calculate the dielectric strength

2800 = 1/2 × 8.84×10^-12 × E^2

5600 = 8.84×10^-12E^2

E^2 = 5600/8.84×10^-12

E = sqrt( 6.3 × 10^14)

E = 25 × 10^7

75% of E = 18.9 × 10^6Jm

The permittivity of the material will be achieved by using the same formula

2800 = 1/2 × ε E^2

2800 = 0.5 × ε × (18.9×10^6)^2

2800 = ε × 1.78 × 10^14

ε = 2800/1.78×10^14

ε = 1.57 × 10^-11

Dielectric constant k = relative permittivity

Relative permittivity is the ratio of the permittivity of the material to the permittivity of the vacuum in a free space. That is

k = 1.57×10^-11/8.84×10^-12

k = 1.776

k = 1.8 approximately

Therefore, the value of the dielectric constant k is 1.8

In 1-2 sentences explain how you would determine the constant k for a spring.

Dmitrij [34]

To perform an experiment to determine the force constant of a spring, you will need a stand with a boss and clamp, a spiral spring, a meter rule and different weights.

The setup is arranged as shown in the image attached. The natural length of the spring is first recorded. Different weights are added to the spring one after the other and the extension is recorded.

The weight is now plotted on the vertical axis and the extension is plotted on the horizontal axis. The slope of the graph is the force constant of the spring.
