Explanation:

Let x = distance of F_1 from the fulcrum and let's assume that the counterclockwise direction is positive. In order to attain equilibrium, the net torque \tau_{net} about the fulcrum is zero:

\tau_{net} = -F_1x + F_2d_2 = 0

-m_1gx + m_2gd_2 = 0

m_1x = m_2d_2

Solving for <em>x</em>,

x = \dfrac{m_2}{m_1}d_2

\:\:\:\:=\left(\dfrac{105.7\:\text{g}}{65.7\:\text{g}} \right)(13.8\:\text{cm}) = 22.2\:\text{cm}

A battery is used to charge a parallel-plate capacitor, after which it is disconnected. Then the plates are pulled apart to twic
Igoryamba

Answer: C.

Explanation:

For a parallel-plate capacitor where the distance between the plates is d.

The capacitance is:

C = e*A/d

You can see that the distance is in the denominator, then if we double the distance, the capacitance halves.

Now, the stored energy can be written as:

E = (1/2)*Q^2/C

Now you can see that in this case, the capacitance is in the denominator, then we can rewrite this as:

E = (1/2)*Q^2*d/(e*A)

e is a constant, A is the area of the plates, that is also constant, and Q is the charge, that can not change because the capacitor is disconnected.

Then we can define:

K = (1/2)*Q^2/(e*A)

And now we can write the energy as:

E = K*d

Then the energy is proportional to the distance between the plates, this means that if we double the distance, we also double the energy.

Which observation would be evidence that heat was transferred by radiation
Masteriza [31]
Radiation is a type of heat transfer wherein there is no need for medium or media through which the heat will flow. Consequently, the radiation waves are able to travel through vacuum. The best observation as evidence to conclude that heat is indeed transferred by radiation is the increase of temperature of the receiving body.
