A parallel-plate capacitor has a voltage of 391 v applied across its plates, then the voltage source is removed. what is the vol

When the capacitor is connected to the voltage, a charge Q is stored on its plates. Calling C_0 the capacitance of the capacitor in air, the charge Q, the capacitance C_0 and the voltage (V_0=391 V) are related by

C_0 =\frac{Q}{V_0} (1)


when the source is disconnected the charge Q remains on the capacitor.


When the space between the plates is filled with mica, the capacitance of the capacitor increases by a factor 5.4 (the permittivity of the mica compared to that of the air):

C=k C_0 = 5.4 C_0

this is the new capacitance. Since the charge Q on the plates remains the same, by using eq. (1) we can find the new voltage across the capacitor:

V=\frac{Q}{C}=\frac{Q}{5.4 C_0}

And since Q=C_0 V_0, substituting into the previous equation, we find:

V=\frac{C_0 V_0}{5.4 C_0}=\frac{V_0}{5.4}=\frac{391 V}{5.4}=72.4 V

Answer:

Animals must eat other plants or animals to obtain the <u>energy</u> stored in the food

Explanation:

One classification of living organisms, according to the way they obtain energy, is that of autotrophs and heterotrophs. The first group is represented by plants, which process their own nutrients from inorganic matter.

<u>Animals -heterotrophes- are unable to process their own nutrients</u>, so they must obtain them from other organisms, either plants or animals. External food sources provide them with nutrients, which contain the energy substrate needed to perform their vital functions.

A mass m = 14 kg is pulled along a horizontal floor with NO friction for a distance d =5.7 m. Then the mass is pulled up an incl
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

W ≅ 292.97 J

Explanation:

1)What is the work done by tension before the block goes up the incline? (On the horizontal surface.)

Workdone by the tension before the block goes up the incline on the horizontal surface can be calculated using the expression;

W = (Fcosθ)d

Given that:

Tension of the force = 62 N

angle of incline θ =  34°

distance d =5.7 m.

Then;

W = 62 × cos(34) × 5.7

W = 353.4 cos(34)

W = 353.4 × 0.8290

W = 292.9686 J

W ≅ 292.97 J

Hence,  the work done by tension before the block goes up the incline = 292.97 J

if a torque of 55.0 N/m is required and the largest force that can be exerted by you is 135 N what is th e length of the lever a
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

r=0.41m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.

\tau=r\times F

Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:

\tau=rFsin\theta

Where \theta is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when sin\theta is equal to one, solving for r:

r=\frac{\tau}{F}\\r=\frac{55\frac{N}{m}}{135N}\\r=0.41m
