Two parallel metal plates, each of area A, are separatedby a distance 3d. Both are connected to ground and each plate carries no

charge. A third plate carrying charge Qis inserted between the two plates, located a distance dfrom the upper plate. As a result, negative charge is induced on each of the two original plates. a) In terms of Q, find the amount of charge on the upper plate, Q1, and the lower plate, Q2. (Hint: it must be true that Q

Why a crystal of potassium chloride has a definite shape<br>​
dolphi86 [110]

The crystal of potassium chloride has a definite shape because it consists of particles that are held in fixed positions.

Ionic solids are crystalline in nature. This means that the ions that compose them are arranged in an orderly manner to form a crystal lattice.

This crystal lattice is composed of a regular repeating pattern called the unit cell. The ions in these unit cells are held together by strong electrostatic forces.

Hence, the crystal of potassium chloride has a definite shape because it consists of particles that are held in fixed positions.

A book rests on the shelf of a bookcase. The reaction force to the force of gravity acting on the book is 1. The force of the sh
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

1. The force of the shelf holding the book up.

Explanation:

The free body diagram of the book is as follows:

1 - The weight of the book towards downwards

2 - The normal force that the shelf exerts on the book towards upwards.

Since the book is at rest, these two forces are equal to each other and according to Newton's Third Law the reaction force to the force of gravity is equal but opposite to the weight of the book. This reaction force is the one that holds the book up on the shelf.

Why is the high specific heat of water important to our planet?
Molodets [167]
If it would be lower - we would not have Antarctica and many species would extinct. Polar ice would melt and we will get a see in the middle of Australia. Sydney, Bri, Mel, Ade, Perth would be under water.

A child on a spinning playground ride is 0.36 m from the center of the ride. The centripetal force on the child is 19 N. What is
White raven [17]

<span>Centripetal force is easily calculated as long as you know the mass, </span>m, of the object; its distance, r, from the center; and the tangential velocity, v. This equation is based on the metric system; note that the centripetal force, f, is measured in Newtons. 

 

F = mv^2 / r

19 N = m ( 0.54^2) / ( 0.36)

Solve for m

Determine the centroid of the shaded area shown in figure 2. Determine the moment of inertia about y-axis of the shaded area sho
Nady [450]

Answer:

  • centroid: (x, y) = (81.25 mm, 137.5 mm)
  • I = 8719.31 mm^2    for unit mass

Explanation:

Finding the desired measures requires we know a differential of area. That, in turn, requires we have a way to describe a differential of area. Here, we choose to use a vertical slice, which requires we know the area boundaries as a function of x.

The upper boundary is a line with a slope of 125/156.25 = 0.8, and a y-intercept of 125. That is, ...

  y1 = 0.8x +125

The lower boundary is given in terms of y, but we can solve for y to find ...

  100x = y^2

  y2 = 10√x

Then our differential of area is ...

  dA = (y1 -y2)dx

__

The centroid is found by computing the first moment about the x- and y-axes, and dividing those values by the area of the figure.

The area will be ...

  \displaystyle A=\int_0^{156.25}{dA}=\int_0^{156.25}{(y_1-y_2)}\,dx

The y-coordinate of the centroid is ...

  \displaystyle \overline{y}=\dfrac{S_x}{A}=\dfrac{1}{A}\int_0^{156.25}{\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}}\,dA=\dfrac{1}{A}\int_0^{156.25}{\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}(y_1-y_2)}\,dx=137.5

Similarly, the x-coordinate is ...

  \displaystyle \overline{x}=\dfrac{S_y}{A}=\dfrac{1}{A}\int_0^{156.25}{x}\,dA=\dfrac{1}{A}\int_0^{156.25}{x(y_1-y_2)}\,dx=81.25

That is, centroid coordinates are (x, y) = (81.25, 137.5) mm.

__

The moment of inertia is the second moment of the area. If we normalize by the "mass" (area), then the integral looks a lot like the one for \overline{x}, but multiplies dA by x^2 instead of x.

The attachment shows that value to be ...

  I ≈ 8719.31 mm^2 (normalized by area)

The area is 16276.0416667 mm^2, if you want to "un-normalize" the moment of inertia.
