The capacitor is now reconnected to the battery, and the plate separation is restored to d. A dielectric plate is slowly moved i

nto the capacitor until the entire space between the plates is filled. Find the energy U2 of the dielectric-filled capacitor. The capacitor remains connected to the battery. The dielectric constant is K.
Express your answer in terms of A, d, V, K, and ϵ0.

Answer:

U₂ = (kϵ₀AV²)/2d

Explanation:

The energy stored in a capacitor is given by (1/2) (CV²)

Energy in the capacitor initially

U = CV²/2

V = voltage across the plates of the capacitor

C = capacitance of the capacitor

But the capacitance of a capacitor depends on the geometry of the capacitor is given by

C = ϵA/d

ϵ = Absolute permissivity of the dielectric material

ϵ = kϵ₀

where k = dielectric constant

ϵ₀ = permissivity of free space/air/vacuum

A = Cross sectional Area of the capacitor

d = separation between the capacitor

So,

U₂ = CV²/2

Substituting for C

U₂ = ϵAV²/2d

The dielectric material has a dielectric constant of k

ϵ = kϵ₀

U₂ = (kϵ₀AV²)/2d

An air conditioner runs 15 minutes each hour on a hot summer day. It is on a 240 volt circuit and uses 21 amps. Rate is $.10/kWh
Helen [10]

Answer:

Approximately \$ 3.02.

Explanation:

Note that the electric rate in this question is in the unit dollar-per-{\rm kWh}, where 1\; {\rm kWh} is the energy to run an appliance of power 1\; {\rm kW} for an hour.

Number of minutes for which the air conditioner is running in that day: 15 \times 24 = 360\; \text{minute}. Apply unit conversion and ensure that this time is measured in hours (same as the unit of the electric rate.)

\begin{aligned} \text{time} &= 360\; \text{minute} \times \frac{1\; \text{hour}}{60\; \text{minute}} = 6\; \text{hour} \end{aligned}.

The power of this air conditioner is:

\begin{aligned} \text{power} &= \text{voltage} \times \text{current} \\ &= 240\; {\rm V} \times 21\; {\rm A} \\ &= 5040\; {\rm W} \\ &= 5.04\; {\rm kW} \end{aligned}.

Thus, the energy that this air conditioner would consume would be:

\begin{aligned}\text{energy} &= \text{power} \times \text{time} \\ &= 5.04\; {\rm kW} \times 6\; \text{hour} \\ &= 30.24\; {\rm kWh} \end{aligned}.

At a rate of 0.1 dollar-per-{\rm kWh}, the cost of that much energy would be approximately 3.02 dollars (rounded to the nearest cent.)

A woman (m = 45kg) is kneeling on the shoulders of a man (m = 70kg) in pair figure-skating while both are traveling at 1.5 m/s.
Temka [501]

Both the man and the woman will be experiencing the same impulse, due to Newton's third law of motion.

Explanation:

This problem considers law of conservation of momentum as well as Newton's third law of motion. As per the third law of motion, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. And the law of conservation of momentum states that the momentum is conserved after collision.

Since, here the woman is kneeling on the man, it is similar to inelastic collision where the man and woman are moving with same velocity. And as the man accelerates the woman, the woman will exhibit a forward force. While at the same time, the man will be experiencing a backward force of same magnitude as of the woman. This is in consistence with the third law of motion.

So both the man and woman will experience force of same magnitude but opposite in direction. As impulse is directly proportional to the force acting on any object in a given duration, so both the man and the woman will be experiencing the same impulse.

The same amount of substance was added to four beakers of water. The treatments were placed in the chart.
vfiekz [6]

Answer: Solution W and Y solution have more solubility than X and Z

Solutions are homogeneous mixtures of two or more components. By uniform mix we mean that its structure and properties are the same in the whole mix. Generally, the component which is present in the largest quantity is known as solvent. Solvent determines the physical condition in which the solution exists. In addition to the solvent, one or more component present in the solution is called solutes. In this unit we will only consider binary solutions (i.e., with two components)

The structure of the solution can be described by expressing its concentration. The latter can either be expressed qualitatively or quantitatively. For example, in qualitatively we can say that the solution is diluted (i.e., relatively small amounts of solubility) or it is concentrated (i.e., relatively rarely sighs). But in real life such details may be very confusing and thus require a quantitative description of the solution. There are several ways that we can quantitatively describe the concentration of solutions. (i) Mass Percentage (W / W): The mass percentage of a component of the solution is defined as: mass of the component = mass of the component in the solution = 100 Total mass of the solution .For example, if by mass A solution is described by 10% glucose in water, it means that 10 grams of glucose dissolved in 90 grams of water, resulting in 100 grams of solution. The concentration described by a large percentage of the population is usually used in industrial chemical applications. For example, the commercial bleaching solution contains 3.62 mass percentages of sodium hypochlorite in water. (ii) Volume Percentage (V / V): Volume Percentage is defined as: Total Volume of Component Volume 100 (component) Volume% of Component
