When a certain air-filled parallel-plate capacitor is connected across a battery, it acquires a charge of 200 µC on each plate.

While the battery connection is maintained, a dielectric slab is inserted into, and fills, the region between the plates. This results in the accumulation of an additional charge of 250 µC on each plate. What is the dielectric constant of the dielectric slab?

Answer:

The value is \epsilon =  2.25

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The charge acquired on each plate is q =  200 \mu C  =  200 *10^{-6} \  C

The additional charge accumulated on each plate is q_a =  250 \mu C  =  250 *10^{-6} \ C

Generally the capacitance of the capacitor before a dielectric slab is inserted is

C_i =  \frac{q}{V}

=> C_i =  \frac{200 \mu C}{V}

Generally the total charge on each plate of the capacitor when the dielectric slab was inserted is

Q =  q + q_a

=> Q = ( 200 + 250 ) \mu C

=> Q = 450 \mu C

Generally the capacitance of the capacitor after a dielectric slab is inserted is mathematically represented as

C =  \frac{450 \mu C}{V}

Generally the dielectric constant is mathematically represented as

\epsilon =  \frac{C}{C_i}

=>      \epsilon =  \frac{450 \mu C}{200  \mu C}

=>       \epsilon =  2.25

What causes a objects to move or stay still? claim and evidence
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

A force

Explanation:

A push or a pull is an example of a force and can cause an object to speed up, slow down, etc..  Newton's laws tell us that 1- an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it 2- the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. 3- The third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.. However, forces like gravity and friction can resist movement.

In a 49 s interval, 595 hailstones strike a glass window of an area of 0.954 m at an angle of 25° to the window surface. Each ha
eduard

Average  force on the window: 0.32 N

Explanation:

The average force exerted on the window is given by Newton's second law

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta p is the net change in momentum of the hailstones in a time interval of \Delta t

In order to find the change in momentum, we have to consider only the component of the hailstone's momentum perpendicular to the window, therefore:

p_i =m u sin \theta is the initial momentum of one hailstone, with

m = 7 g = 0.007 kg is the mass

u=4.5 m/s is the initial speed

\theta=25^{\circ} is the angle with the window

The final momentum is

p_f = mv sin \theta

where

v = 4.5 m/s is the final speed (the  collision is elastic so the speed is equal, while the direction changes)

\theta=-25^{\circ} (after the rebound, the direction has changed)

So the change in momentum of 1 hailstone is

\Delta p = mv sin(-25^{\circ})-mu sin(25^{\circ})=-2mu sin(25^{\circ})=-0.0266 kg m/s

We are interested only in the magnitude, so

\Delta p = 0.0266 kg m/s

There are 595 hailstones hitting the window in 49 s, so the total change in momentum is

\Delta p = 595\cdot 0.0266 = 15.8 kg m/s

And therefore, the average force on the window is

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=\frac{15.8}{49}=0.32 N

How loudness of a sound wave depends on the intensity of the sound wave?
Anestetic [448]
Loudness of a sound wave is directly proportional to the intensity of the sound wave. In other words, when one increases, other also increases and vice-versa
