A parallel-plate capacitor has a charge Q and plates of area A. What force acts on one plate to attract it toward the other plat

e? Because the electric field between the plates is E 5 Q /Ae0, you might think the force is F 5 QE 5 Q2/Ae0. This conclusion is wrong because the field E includes contributions from both plates, and the field created by the positive plate cannot exert any force on the positive plate. Show that the force exerted on each plate is actually F 5 Q2/2Ae0. Suggestion: Let C 5 e0A/x for an arbitrary plate separation x and note that the work done in separating the two charged plates is W 5 e F dx.

Answer:

F=\dfrac{Q^2x}{2\varepsilon _0A}

Explanation:

Given that

Charge = Q

Area =A

Electric filed =E

We know that

F=\dfrac{dU}{dx}

U=Energy

We know that energy in capacitor given as

U=\dfrac{Q^2}{2C}

C=\dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{x}

U=\dfrac{Q^2x}{2\varepsilon _0A}

So

Force F

F=\dfrac{Q^2x}{2\varepsilon _0A}

A boy throws a snowball straight up in the air with an initial speed of 4.50 ft/s from a position 4.00 ft above the ground. The
IgorC [24]

Answer:

a) 0.658 seconds

b) 0.96 inches

Explanation:

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=4.5-32.1\times t\\\Rightarrow \frac{-4.5}{-32.1}=t\\\Rightarrow t=0.14 \s

Time taken by the ball to reach the highest point is 0.14 seconds

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=4.5\times 0.14+\frac{1}{2}\times -32.1\times 0.14^2\\\Rightarrow s=0.315\ ft

The highest point reached by the snowball above its release point is 0.315 ft

Total height the snowball will fall is 4+0.315 = 4.315 ft

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 4.315=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 32.1\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{4.315\times 2}{32.1}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.518\ s

The snowball will reach the bank at 0.14+0.518 = 0.658 seconds after it has been thrown

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+32.1\times 0.518\\\Rightarrow v=16.62\ ft/s

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-16.62^2}{2\times -100\times 3.28}\\\Rightarrow s=0.42\ ft

The snowball goes 0.5-0.42 = 0.08 ft = 0.96 inches
