A dielectric material, such as Teflon®, is placed between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor without altering the structure of the capacitor. The charge on the capacitor is held fixed. How is the electric field between the plates of the capacitor affected? The electric field becomes infinite because of the insertion of the Teflon®. The electric field becomes zero after the insertion of the Teflon®. The electric field decreases because of the insertion of the Teflon®. The electric field increases because of the insertion of the Teflon®. The electric field is not altered, because the structure remains unchanged. SubmitRequest Answer Provide Feedback Next

Answer: The electric field decreases because of the insertion of the Teflon.

Explanation:

If the charge on the capacitor is held fixed, the electric field as a consequence of this charge distribution (directed from the positive charged plate to the negative charged one remains unchanged.

However, as the Teflon is a dielectric material, even though doesn't allow the free movement of the electrons as an answer to an applied electric field, it allows that the electrons be displaced from the equilibrium position, leaving a local negative-charged zone close to the posiitive plate of the capacitor, and an equal but opposite charged layer close to the negative plate.

In this way, a internal electric field is created, that opposes to the external one due to the capacitor, which overall effect is diminishing the total electric field, reducing the voltage between the plates, and  increasing the capacitance proportionally to the dielectric constant of the Teflon.

You are driving on a roadway with multiple lanes of travel in the same direction, and are approaching an emergency vehicle parke
solmaris [256]

Answer: a. Leave the lane closest to the emergency as soon as it is safe to do so, or slow down to a speed of 20 MPH below the posted speed limit.

Explanation:

Giving a way to the law enforcement vehicle and a medical emergency vehicle is necessary. If one approaches an emergency vehicle parked along the roadway one should change the lane as the vehicle may not move and the driver may also waste his or her time also one should also slow down his or her speed while approaching the vehicle as most of the emergency vehicle are in rush to reach the hospital so the driver should maintain some distance with the medical emergency vehicle.

The total solids production rate in an activated sludge aeration tank is 7240 kg/d on a dry mass basis. It is necessary to maint
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

volume of biological sludge = 28.566 m³ per day

Explanation:

given data

mass of solid = 7240 kg/day

initial moisture content = 78%

solution

here percentage of solid will be

% of solid = 100 - initial moisture content

% of solid = 100 - 78 = 22 %

so that

mass of sludge produced = \frac{100}{100 - P} M kg  per day

put her value

mass of sludge produced = \frac{100}{100 - 78} 7240 kg

mass of sludge produced = 32909.09 kg

so

specific gravity of sludge =  \frac{\rho sludge}{\rho water }

and as we know that

\frac{100}{S sludge} = \frac{solid percentage}{S solid} = \frac{water percentage}{S water}

\frac{100}{S sludge} = \frac{22}{2.5} = \frac{78}{1}

S sludge = 1.152

so that

density of sludge = S sludge × density of water

density of sludge = 1.152 × 1000

density of sludge = 1152 kg/m³

so that

volume of biological sludge = \frac{mass sludge produce}{\rho sludge}

volume of biological sludge = \frac{32909.09}{1152}

volume of biological sludge = 28.566 m³ per day

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The answer is " \Delta p = f(V1, p, V2, d, D, L)"

Explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

Its change in temperature in pipes depends on rate heads and loss in pipes owing to pipe flow, contractual loss, etc.

The temperature change thus relies on V1 v2 p d D L.
