Answer:
Scientific Notation: 3.45 x 10^5
E Notation: 3.45e5
Answer:
A) 26V
Explanation:
(a) the potential difference between the plates
Initial capacitance can be calculated using below expresion
C1= A ε0/ d1
Where d1= distance between = 2.70 mm= 2.70× 10^-3 m
ε0= permittivity of space= 8.85× 10^-12 Fm^-1
A= area of the plate = 7.90 cm2 = 7.90 ×10^-4 m^2
If we substitute the values we
C1= A ε0/ d1
=( 7.90 ×10^-4 × 8.85× 10^-12 )/2.70× 10^-3
C1=2.589 ×10^-12 F= 2.59 pF
Initial charge can be determined using below expresion
q1= C1 × V1
V1=2.589 ×10^-12 F
V1= voltage=7.90 V
If we substitute we have
q1= 2.589 ×10^-12 × 7.90
q1= 20.45×10^-12C
20.45 pC
Final capacitance can be calculated as
C2= A ε0/ d2
d2=8.80 mm= /8.80× 10^-3
7.90 ×10^-4 × 8.85× 10^-12 )/8.80× 10^-3
C1=0.794 ×10^-12 F= 0.794 pF
Final charge= initial charge
q2=q1 (since the battery is disconnected)
q2=q1= 20.45 pC
Final potential difference
V2= q/C2
= 20.45/0.794
= 26V
Answer:
Speed greater than 4 m/s
Explanation:
Given that Ms. Kasper is in a panic. Her cat, Penny, is stuck in a tree and about to jump out. In order to save her cat, Ms. Kasper needs to run to the tree, 12 meters away. If it takes her cat, 3 seconds to fall, how fast would Ms. Kasper have to run to save her cat?
The distance = 12 m
Time = 3s
Speed = distance/time
Speed = 12/3
Speed = 4 m/s
Ms Kasper must run at speed more than 4m/s for her to save the cat.
