A capacitor is made from two hollow, coaxial, iron cylinders, one inside the other. The inner cylinder is negatively charged and

the outer is positively charged; the magnitude of the charge on each is 11.5 pC. The inner cylinder has a radius of 0.550 mm, the outer one has a radius of 4.00 mm, and the length of each cylinder is 15.0 cm.
(1) What is the capacitance? Use 8.854×10−12 F/m for the permittivity of free space.
(2) What applied potential difference is necessary to produce these charges on the cylinders?

Answer:

a. 4.2057\times 10^-^1^2 F \ or 4.2057\ pF\\b. 2.7344V

Explanation:

a.

Given the permittivity constant to be 8.854\times 10^-^1^2 F/m,The capacitance of a cylindrical \ capacitor of length, L is given by the equation:

C=\frac{2\pi \epsilon _o L}{ln(b/a)} where b is the radius of the outer cylinder and a the radius of the inner cylinder.

The values are given as:a=0.550mm(5.5\times 10^-^4m), \ b=4.00mm(4.0\times10^-^3m), \ L=15.0cm(0.150m)

Substitute in our capacitance equation:

C=\frac{2\times\pi \times 8.854\times 10^-^1^2 \times 0.15}{In(4.00/0.550)}\\=4.2057\times 10^-^1^2 F

Hence the capacitance is 4.2057\times 10^-^1^2 F

b. The charge on the capacitance is related to the potential difference across it. The potential difference is expressed using the equation:

Q=CV,Q=11.5pC

From a above, we already have our capacitance value,C=4.2057\times 10^-^1^2 F

We substitute C in the pd equation:

v=>(11.5)/(4.2057)\\=2.7344V

Hence, the applied potential difference is 2.7344V

An electric motor does 900j of work for 8 hours. Calculate the power used​
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

0.031 W

Explanation:

The power used is equal to the rate of work done:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

P is the power

W is the work done

t is the time taken to do the work W

In this problem, we have:

W = 900 J is the work done by the motor

t = 8 h is the time taken

We have to convert the time into SI units; keeping in mind that

1 hour = 3600 s

We have

t=8\cdot 3600 =28,800 s

And therefore, the power used is

W=\frac{900}{28800}=0.031 W

A concert loudspeaker suspended high off the ground emits 34 W of sound power. A small microphone with a 1.0 cm2 area is 44 m fr
rjkz [21]

Answer:

<u>Part A</u>

I = 1.4 mW/m²  

<u>Part B</u>

β = 91.46 dB

Explanation:

<u>Part A</u>

Sound intensity is the power per unit area of sound waves in a direction perpendicular to that area. Sound intensity is also called acoustic intensity.

For a spherical sound wave, the sound intensity is given by;

                                            I = \frac{P}{A}

                                            I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^{2}}

Where;

P is the source of power in watts (W)

I is the intensity of the sound in watt per square meter (W/m2)

r is the distance r away

Given:

P = 34 W,

A = 1.0 cm²

r = 44 m

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is calculated to be;

                                     I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}

                                     I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}

                                     I = 0.0013975 W/m²

                                 ≈  I = 0.0014 W/m² = 1.4 × 10⁻³ W/m²

                                     I = 1.4 mW/m²

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is 1.4 mW/m².

<u>Part B</u>

Sound intensity level or acoustic intensity level is the level of the intensity of a sound relative to a reference value.  It is a a logarithmic quantity. It is denoted by β and expressed in nepers, bels, or decibels.

Sound intensity level is calculated as;  

                                    β = 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_{0}}  dB

Where,

β is the Sound intensity level in decibels (dB)

I is the sound intensity;

I₀ is the reference sound intensity;

By pluging-in, I₀ is 1.0 × 10⁻¹² W/m²

           ∴        β = 10log_{10}\frac{1.4 * 10^{-3} W/m^{2}}{1.0 * 10^{-12} W/m^{2}}

                      β = 10log_{10} (1.4 * 10^{9})

                      β = 91.46 dB

The sound intensity level at the position of the microphone is 91.46 dB.

The angular momentum of an electron in each of its orbits must be some multiple of:
Nastasia [14]
The Bohr's proposal for the angular momentum of an electron in Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom is:

L=(n*h)/(2π), where n is the number of the energy level and h is the Planck's constant. This equation shows us the quantization of angular momentum of the electron. So the correct answer is the second one: Planck's constant.

When a mass of 29 g is attached to a certain spring, it makes 20 complete vibrations in 3.1 s. What is the spring constant of th
never [62]

Answer:

The spring constant of the spring is 47.62 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass that is attached with the spring, m = 29 g = 0.029 kg

The spring makes 20 complete vibrations in 3.1 s. We need to find the spring constant of the spring. We know that the number of oscillations per unit time is called frequency of an object. So,

f=\dfrac{20}{3.1}

f = 6.45 Hz

The frequency of oscillator is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

k is the spring constant

k=4\pi^2f^2m

k=4\pi^2\times (6.45)^2\times 0.029

k = 47.62 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 47.62 N/m. Hence, this is the required solution.
