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.

What characteristics determine how easily two substances change temperature
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer;

Amount of time the two substances are in contact

Area in contact between the two substances

Specific heat of the material that makes up the substances

Explanation;

The change in temperature of a substance is caused by heat energy. The change in temperature will depend on factors such as mass of the substance, the type of material it is made from, the time taken , specific heat of the material that makes the substance, and also the area of contact.

The amount of time the two substances are in contact affect the change in temperature such that if the two bodies are in contact for a longer time then a bigger change in temperature will be observed.

Specific heat capacity also determines the change in temperature that will be observed, such that a substance with a bigger specific heat capacity will record a small change in temperature.

Alternative sources of energy include : geothermal
baherus [9]

Answer:

All of the above

Explanation:

The correct answer is option E (All of the above)

All the options are alternative source of energy.

The option given are not the traditional way (energy production from coal) of extracting energy as the loss of natural resources does not take place in these source of energy.

energy extracted from wind,  solar light , hydrogen ,etc are the source of energy  the alternative source of production of energy because do not exploit the natural resources, reduce the carbon emission and energy produced by them is clean energy.
