An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor. The charge per unit area on each plate is

= 2.1 × 10^-7 C/m^2, and the plates are separated by a distance of 1.2 × 10^-2 m. How fast is the electron moving just before it reaches the positive plate?

Explanation:

An electron is released from rest, u = 0

We know that charge per unit area is called the surface charge density i.e. \sigma=\dfrac{q}{A}=2.1\times 10^{-7}\ C/m^2

Distance between the plates, d=1.2\times 10^{-2}\ m

Let E is the electric field,

E=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_o}

E=\dfrac{2.1\times 10^{-7}}{8.85\times 10^{-12}}

E = 23728.81 N/C

Now, ma=qE

a=\dfrac{qE}{m}

a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 23728.81}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

a=4.17\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

Let v is the speed of the electron just before it reaches the positive plate. So, third equation of motion becomes :

v^2=2ad

v^2=2\times 4.17\times 10^{15}\times 1.2\times 10^{-2}

v=10.003\times 10^6\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Aristotle said that a moving earthly or `mundane' object with nothing pushing or pulling on it will always A slow down and stop.
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

A slow down and stop

Explanation:

When there is no force acting on something it automatically begins to slow down and then stops.Essentially, Aristotle's perspective of motion is that "it requires a force to move an object in an unnatural" way— or, plainly, that "movement involves strength." Indeed, if you propel a book, it keeps moving. Once you stop trying to push, it comes to a stop.

What two factors determine how bright a star appears to be in the sky?
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

1. Luminosity

2.Apparent brightness

Explanation:

There are two factors on which brightness of star appear to be in the sky

The two factors are

1. Luminosity

2.Apparent brightness

1.Luminosity :It is defined as the total energy emitted by the object in a given time.Luminosity vary with the distance of observer from the star.Luminosity is a intrinsic property which depends on the fundamental chemical composition and structure of the  material.Luminosity is depends on the size of star.Lager the star luminosity will be more.

2.Apparent brightness: It is defined as how bright a star appears from an observer on the earth and the amount of starlight reaching the earth.if the distance is large then the brightness decreases.When the distance of star from us small then the   brightness of star increases.Distance is inversely proportional to brightness of the star.

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

He is incorrect. Dissolving salt in water and evaporation of the water are both physical changes. The reappearance of salt is evidence that the change was reversible by a physical change, so it could not be a chemical change.
