"Voltage" is the "pressure" that makes electrons want to leave where they are
and head in some direction, if there's conducting material in that direction.

"Current" is the rate at which they all migrate in that direction.

The spacing between the plates of a 1.0 μF capacitor is 0.050 mm. a) What is the surface area of the plates? b) How much charge
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

(a) surface area of the plate will be equal to 1.129m^2

(b) Charge on the capacitor is equal to 1.5\times 10^{-6}C

Explanation:

We have given spacing between the plates d = 0.05 mm = 5\times 10^{-5}m

Value of capacitance C=1\mu F=10^{-6}F

(A) Capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is equal to C=\frac{\epsilon _0A}{d}

So 10^{-6}=\frac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times A}{10^{-5}}

A=1.129m^2

So surface area of the plate will be equal to 1.129m^2

(B) It is given that capacitor is charged by 1.5 volt

So voltage V = 1.5 volt

Charge on the capacitor is equal to Q=CV

So Q=1.5\times 10^{-6}C

A 1-kg rock is suspended by a massless string from one end of a
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The weight of measuring stick is 9.8 N

Explanation:

given information:

the mass of the rock, m_{r} = 1 kg

measuring stick, x =1 m

d = 0.25 m

to find the weight of measuring stick, we can use the following equation:

τ = Fd

τ = 0

F_{r} d - F_{s}d = 0

F_{r} = the force of the rock

F_{s} = the force of measuring stick

F_{s} =F_{r}

    = m g

    = 1 kg x 9.8 m/s

    = 9.8 N

thus, the weight of measuring stick is 9.8 N

A particle with charge q, mass m, and initial speed v0 in the x direction enters a region where the electric field is uniform in
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

S = 1/2 Vo t + 1/2 a t^2 = d      time for particle to travel distance d

F = E q         force acting on particle

a = F / m = E q / m

d = Vo t + E q / (2 m) t^2

One would need to solve the quadratic equation shown to find the time t

t^2 + (2 m) / E q * V0 t - (2 m) / E q * d = 0

or t^2 + A V0 t - A d = 0 where A =  (2 m) / E q
