Answer:

The answer is "Option A"

Explanation:

Energy stored in capcitor=\frac{1}{2}\ cv^2

For point A:

C_A=\frac{\varepsilon_0  2A}{\frac{d}{2}}=\frac{4\ \varepsilon_0 A}{d}\\\\

For point B:

C_B=\frac{\varepsilon_0  2A}{2d}=\frac{\varepsilon_0 A}{d}\\\\

For point C:

C_c=\frac{\varepsilon_0  A}{d}\\\\

For point D:

C_D=\frac{\varepsilon_0  A}{2 \frac{d}{2}}=\frac{\varepsilon_0 A}{d}\\\\

For point E:  C_E=\frac{\varepsilon_0  A}{2 \times 2d}=\frac{\varepsilon_0 A}{4d}\\\\

therefore C_A has the maximum capacitance and max energy same energy is dir proportional to C for the same J

30. The length of mercury thread when it is at 0°C, 100°C and at an unknown temperature 0 is 25mm, 225mm and 175mm respectively.
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

75°C

Explanation:

175−25/225−25=x−0/100−0

150/200=x/100

x=150×100/200

= 75°C

Problem 6: A bullet in a gun is accelerated from rest from the firing chamber to the end of the barrel at an average rate of 6.3
solong [7]

Answer:

v = 5.166 10² m / s

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using the kinematics equations

           v = v₀ + at

as the bullet starts from rest its initial velocity is zero

           v = a t

let's calculate

           v = 6.3 10⁵   8.2 10⁻⁴

           v = 5.166 10² m / s
