Suppose that we have a 1000 pF parallel-plate capacitor with air dielectric charged to 1000 V. The capacitors terminals are open
circuited. Find the stored energy. If the plates are moved apart so that d is doubled, determine the new voltage on the capacitor and the new stored energy. Where did the extra energy come from?
1 answer:
Answer:
A) initial stored energy = 5x10^-4 J
B) new voltage if space is doubled will be 2000V
C) if space is doubled, stored energy becomes 2x10^-3 J
D) the extra energy comes from the work done in moving the plates further apart

Answer:
(a) Yes
(b) 102.8 ft
Explanation:
(a)First let convert mile per hour to feet per second
30 mph = 30 * 5280 / 3600 = 44 ft/s
The time it takes for this driver to decelerate comfortably to 0 speed is
t = v / a = 44 / 10 = 4.4 (s)
given that it also takes 1.5 seconds for the driver reaction, the total time she would need is 5.9 seconds. Therefore, if the yellow light was on for 4 seconds, that's not enough time and the dilemma zone would exist.
(b) At this rate the distance covered by the driver is
Since the intersection is only 60 feet wide, the dilemma zone must be
162.8 - 60 = 102.8 ft
