Answer: The value of the dielectric constant k = 1.8

Explanation:

If C= ε A/d and

Electrostatic energy W = 1/2CV^2

Substitutes C in the first formula into the energy formula.

W = 1/2 ε A/d × V^2

Let us remember that electric field strength E is the ratio of potential V to the distance d. Where V = Ed

Substitute V = Ed into the energy W.

W = 1/2 × ε A/d ×( Ed )^2

W = 1/2 × ε A/d × E^2 × d^2

d will cancel one of the ds

W = 1/2 × ε Ad × E^2

W/Ad = 1/2 × ε × E^2

W/V = 1/2 × ε E^2

Where Ad = volume V

E = dielectric strength

εo = permittivity of free space = 8.84 x 10^-12 F/m

W/V = 2800 J/m^3

Let first calculate the dielectric strength

2800 = 1/2 × 8.84×10^-12 × E^2

5600 = 8.84×10^-12E^2

E^2 = 5600/8.84×10^-12

E = sqrt( 6.3 × 10^14)

E = 25 × 10^7

75% of E = 18.9 × 10^6Jm

The permittivity of the material will be achieved by using the same formula

2800 = 1/2 × ε E^2

2800 = 0.5 × ε × (18.9×10^6)^2

2800 = ε × 1.78 × 10^14

ε = 2800/1.78×10^14

ε = 1.57 × 10^-11

Dielectric constant k = relative permittivity

Relative permittivity is the ratio of the permittivity of the material to the permittivity of the vacuum in a free space. That is

k = 1.57×10^-11/8.84×10^-12

k = 1.776

k = 1.8 approximately

Therefore, the value of the dielectric constant k is 1.8

Answer:

Light refracts when its speed changes as it enters a new medium.

Explanation:

Bending of light wave while it entering a medium with different speed is called refraction of light. Light passing from a faster medium to the slower medium bends the light rays toward the normal to boundary between two media. The amount of the  bending of light depends on refractive index of the two media which is described by  the Snell's Law. The angle of incidence is not equal to  angle of refraction. Rainbow is caused but this refraction phenomena. Also Refraction is used in magnifying glasses, prism and lenses

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: for insulation of heat

Explanation:

Windows in cold countries have double glazing windows to provide a barrier against the outside temperature by creating a buffer zone between two glasses.

The air or any other gas-filled between the glasses act as an insulator and offer great resistance to outside temperature thereby maintaining the inside temperature intact.
