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.

why is the thermal conductivity of super insolation order of magnitude lower than the thermal conductivity of ordinary insulatio
Anni [7]

Answer:

Super insulation are obtained by using layers of highly reflective sheets separated by glass fibers in an vacuumed space. Radiation heat transfer between any of the surfaces is inversely proportional to the number of sheets used and thus heat lost by radiation will be very low by using these highly reflective sheets which will an effective way of heat transfer.

A concentrated load P is applied to the upper end of a 1.47-m-long pipe. The outside diameter of the pipe is D = 112 mm and the
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Pmax = 38251.73 N

Explanation:

Given info

L = 1.47 m

D = 112 mm ⇒ R = D/2 = 112/2 mm = 56 mm

d = 101 mm  ⇒ r = D/2 = 101/2 mm = 50.5 mm

a) We can apply the following equation in order to get Q (First Moment of Area):

Q = 2*(A₁*y₁-A₂*y₂)

where

A₁ = π*R² = π*(56 mm)² = 3136 π mm²  

y₁ = 4*R/(3*π) = 4*56/(3*π) mm = 224/(3*π) mm

A₂ = π*r² = π*(50.5 mm)² = 2550.25 π mm²

y₂ = 4*r/(3*π) = 4*50.5/(3*π) mm = 202/(3*π) mm

then

Q = 2*(3136 π mm²*224/(3*π) mm-2550.25 π mm²*202/(3*π) mm)

⇒ Q = 62437.833 mm³

b) If  τallow = 83 MPa = 83 N/mm²

P = ?

We can use the equation

τ = V*Q / (t*I)   ⇒  V = τ*t*I / Q

where

t = D - d = 112 mm - 101 mm = 11 mm

I = (π/64)*(D⁴-d⁴) = (π/64)*((112 mm)⁴-(101 mm)⁴) = 2615942.11 mm⁴

Q = 62437.833 mm³

we could also use this equation in order to get Q:

Q = (4/3)*(R³-r³)

⇒  Q = (4/3)*((56 mm)³-(50.5 mm)³) = 62437.833 mm³

then we have

V = (83 N/mm²)*(11 mm)*(2615942.11 mm⁴) / (62437.833 mm³)

⇒ V = 2942.255 N

Finally Pmax = V = 38251.73 N
