Because there is no gravity. The farther in space you go from Earth the less gravitational force there is. The technical term is microgravity.

A parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance of 10 to the power -9. What potential difference is required for a charge of 5×
Maurinko [17]

The potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

<h3>What is the energy in a capacitor?</h3>

The energy stored in a capacitor is an electrostatic potential energy.

It is related to the charge(Q) and voltage (V) between the capacitor plates.

It is represented as 'U'.

<h3>How to determine the potential difference</h3>

Formula:

Potential difference, V is the ratio of the charge to the capacitance of a capacitor.

It is calculated using:

V = Q ÷ C

Where Q = charge 5 × 10∧-5C and C = capacitance 10∧-9

Substitute the values into the equation

Potential difference, V = 5 × 10∧-5 ÷  10∧-9 = 5 × 10∧4 volts

<h3>How to determine the energy stored</h3>

Formula:

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 (QV)

Where Q= charge and V = potential difference across the capacitor

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 ( 5 × 10∧-5 × 5 × 10∧4)

= 0.5 × 25 × 10∧-1

= 0.5 × 2.5

= 1. 25 Joules

Therefore, the potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

A car accelerates at a constant rate from 0 to 50 mph in three fourths min. How far does the car travel during that​ time?
Helen [10]

Answer:

the car have travelled 0.31 mile during that​ time

Explanation:

Applying the Equation of motion;

s = 0.5(u+v)t

Where;

s = distance travelled

u = initial speed = 0 mph

v = Final speed = 50 mph

t = time taken = 3/4 min = 3/4 ÷ 60 hours = 1/80 hour

Substituting the given values into the equation;

s = 0.5(0+50)×(1/80)

s = 0.3125 miles

s ~= 0.31 mile

the car have travelled 0.31 mile during that​ time

Fill in the blank. Consider the inverse square law: When light leaves a light bulb, it spreads out over more and more space as i
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of light is inversely proportional to distance from source

I ∝ 1 /r²  where I is intensity and r is distance from source . If I₁ and I₂ be intensity at distance r₁ and r₂ .

I₁ /I₂ = r₂² /r₁²

If r₂ = 4r₁ ( given )

I₁ / I₂ = (4r₁ )² / r₁²

= 16 r₁² / r₁²

I₁ / I₂ = 16

I₂ = I₁ / 16

So intensity will become 16 times less bright .

"16 times " is the answer .
