An air capacitor is made by using two flat plates, each with area A, separated by a distance d. Then a metal slab having thickne

ss a (less than d) and the same shape and size as the plates is inserted between the, parallel to the plates and not touching either plate

Answer:

C' = \frac{A\epsilon_{o}}{d - a}

Solution:

As per the question:

Area of the plates is given by 'A'

Separation distance between the plates is 'd'

Now, after insertion of the metal plate with same area 'A' and thickness, a < d

in between the plates, the capacitance of the capacitor changes.

The capacitance of the air capacitor (parallel plate) is generally given by:

C = \frac{A\epsilon_{o}}{d}

where

C = Capacitor's capacitance

\epsilon_{o} = Permittivity of the free space

Now, when the metal slab is inserted the distance is reduced to (d - a)

Thus

C' = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{A\epsilon_{o}}{\frac{d - a}{2}})

C' = \frac{A\epsilon_{o}}{d - a}

Energy of fossil fuels is also derieved from solar energy​
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Explanation:

All the energy in oil, gas, and coal originally came from the sun, captured through photosynthesis.for example when  we burn wood to release energy that trees capture from the sun, we burn fossil fuels to release the energy that ancient plants captured from the sun. We can think of this energy as having been deposited in a natural solar power bank over millions of years.

So, in one sense, gasoline-burning cars, coal-burning power plants, and homes heated by natural gas are all solar powered!
