An empty plate capacitor is connected between the terminals ofa 9.0 V battery and charged up. The capacitor is then disconnected

from the battery, and the spacing between the capacitor plates isdoubled. As a result of the change, what is the new voltage betweenthe plates of the capacitor?
I have:
E = v/d
E =9 V
then the distance is doubled 9(2) = 18 V
I feel like maybe I over simplified the problem. Does thislook right?

Answer:

The new voltage between the parallel plates of the capacitor is 18V, because for a constant electric field, doubling the space between the parallel capacitor plates, will also double the potential difference (voltage) between the plates.

Explanation:

ΔV = E*Δd

Where;

ΔV is the change in potential difference

Δd is the change in the distance between the parallel plates

E is the electric field potential.

Assuming a constant electric field; E = \frac{v}{d} , then; \frac{v_1}{d_1} =\frac{v_2}{d_2}

when the spacing between the capacitor plates is doubled, d₂ = 2d₁

v₂ = (v₁*d₂)/(d₁)

v₂ = (v₁*2d₁)/(d₁)

v₂ = 2v₁

v₂  = 2(9) = 18 V

Therefore, for a constant electric field, doubling the space between the parallel capacitor plates, will also double the potential difference (voltage).

amid [387]

Answer:

Explanation:

Galaxies are in constant motion with respect to each other . For example Andromeda galaxy is approaching our galaxy ( milky way ) at about 110 km /s . So we will observe blue shift in the spectrum of radiation coming from  this galaxy . In this way, we can distinguish between radiation coming from our galaxy and that coming from other galaxy . Spectrum of radiation coming from other galaxy must  have either red or blue  shift .

A mass is bobbing up and down on a spring. If you increase the amplitude of the motion, how does this affect the time for one os
NikAS [45]

Answer:

It will not change

Explanation:

The period of oscillation of a mass-spring system is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

where

T is the period

m is the mass hanging on the spring

k is the spring constant

As we see from the formula, the period of oscillation does not depend on the amplitude of the motion: therefore, if we change the amplitude, the time for one oscillation will not change.

a 60 kg woman in a elevator is accelerating upward at a rate of 1.2 m/s2. What is the gravitational force acting upon the woman?
Flura [38]

The gravitational force acting upon the woman is equal to <u>-588.6N</u>

Why?

To solve the problem, we need to consider that two forces are acting upon the woman, the first one is related to her weight and the second one is related to the acceleration of the elevator.

Gravitational force acting upon the woman:

Force=m*gravityacceleration\\\\Force=60kg*-9.81\frac{m}{s^{2}}=-588.6N

Hence, we have that the gravitational force acting upon the woman is equal to -588.6N.

Have a nice day!
