Answer:

Greatest gravitational energy is at "C".

The planet has to do work "against" the field to get to "C".

Also, if m v R (angular momentum) is constant then as R increases v must decrease for this term to be constant and KE = 1/2 M v^2 must decrease also to get to point C.

How do you determine the wattage capacity needed by a power supply?

Lady bird [3.3K]

We could use the formula for the Power supply in order to find the wattage capacity and it would be:

P = V²/R or P = V * I

Hope this helps!

A ball is dropped from a building taking 3sec to fall to the ground. Calculate:

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Vf = 29.4 m/s

h = 44.1 m

Explanation:

Data:

Initial Velocity (Vo) = 0 m/s
Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) = 3 s
Final Velocity (Vf) = ?
Height (h) = ?

==================================================================

Final Velocity

Use formula:

Vf = g * t

Replace:

Vf = 9.8 m/s² * 3s

Multiply:

Vf = 29.4 m/s

==================================================================

Height

Use formula:

$\boxed{h=\frac{g*(t)^{2}}{2}}$

Replace:

$\boxed{h=\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*(3s)^{2}}{2}}$

Multiply time squared:

$\boxed{h=\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*9s^{2}}{2}}$

Simplify the s², and multiply in the numerator:

$\boxed{h=\frac{88.2m}{2}}$

It divides:

$\boxed{h=44.1\ m}$

What is the velocity when falling to the ground?

The final velocity is <u>29.4 meters per seconds.</u>

How high is the building?

The height of the building is <u>44.1 meters.</u>

A parallel-plate capacitor in air has a plate separation of 1.76 cm and a plate area of

Monica [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Plate separation, d = 1.76 cm = 0.0176 m

Area of plates, A = 25 cm^2 = 0.0025 m^2

V = 255 V

(a) Capacitance of capacitor

$C = \frac{\epsilon _0A}{d}$

$C = \frac{8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 0.0025}{0.0176}$

C = 1.258 x 10^-12 F

charge is same before and after immersion as the battery is disconnected

q = C V

q = 1.258 x 10^-12 x 255 = 3.2 x 10^-10 C

(b)

Capacitance before, C = 1.258 x 10^-12 C

capacitance after, C' = k x C = 80 x 1.258 x 10^-12 = 100.64 x 10^-12 C

Where, k is the dielectric constant of water = 80

Potential difference after immersion, V' = V / k = 255 / 80 = 3.1875 V

$U = \frac{q^{2}}{2C}$

$U = \frac{(3.2\times 10^{-10})^{2}}{2\times 1.258\times 10^{-12 }}=4.07\times 10^{-8}J$

Final energy

$U' = \frac{q^{2}}{2C'}$

$U' = \frac{(3.2\times 10^{-10})^{2}}{2\times 100.64\times 10^{-12}}=5.08\times 10^{-10}J$
