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

Reptile [31]
The only evidence you have that you exist as a self-aware being is your conscious experience of thinking about your existence. Beyond that you're on your own. You cannot access anyone else's conscious thoughts, so you will never know if they are self-aware.

What is the efficiency of a machine?​
Julli [10]

Answer:

Efficiency is the percent of work put into a machine by the user (input work) that becomes work done by the machine (output work).

Explanation:

It is a measure of how well a machine reduces friction.

Torque can cause the angular momentum vector to rotate in UCM. This motion is called ___________.
emmainna [20.7K]

Torque can cause the angular momentum vector to rotate in UCM. This motion is called _Conservation of Angular momentum__________.

Answer:

Conservation of Angular momentum

Explanation:

The motion of an object in a circular path at constant speed is known as uniform circular motion (UCM). An object in UCM is constantly changing direction, and since velocity is a vector and has direction, you could say that an object undergoing UCM has a constantly changing velocity, even if its speed remains constant.

The law of conservation of angular momentum states that when no external torque acts on an object, no change of angular momentum will occur.

Key Points

When an object is spinning in a closed system and no external torques are applied to it, it will have no change in angular momentum.

The conservation of angular momentum explains the angular acceleration of an ice skater as she brings her arms and legs close to the vertical axis of rotation.

If the net torque is zero, then angular momentum is constant or conserved.

Angular Momentum

The conserved quantity we are investigating is called angular momentum. The symbol for angular momentum is the letter L. Just as linear momentum is conserved when there is no net external forces, angular momentum is constant or conserved when the net torque is zero. We can see this by considering Newton’s 2nd law for rotational motion:

τ→=dL→dt, where  

τ is the torque. For the situation in which the net torque is zero,  

dL→dt=0.

If the change in angular momentum ΔL is zero, then the angular momentum is constant; therefore,

⇒

L  =constant

L=constant (when net τ=0).

This is an expression for the law of conservation of angular momentum.

Example and Implications

An example of conservation of angular momentum is seen in an ice skater executing a spin,  The net torque on her is very close to zero,

because (1) there is relatively little friction between her skates and the ice, and (2) the friction is exerted very close to the pivot point.

Conservation of angular momentum is one of the key conservation laws in physics, along with the conservation laws for energy and (linear) momentum. These laws are applicable even in microscopic domains where quantum mechanics governs; they exist due to inherent symmetries present in nature.
