You slide a slab of dielectric between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor. As you do this, the potential difference betwee

n the plates remains constant. What effect does adding the dielectric have on the amount of charge on each of the capacitor plates

Answer:

In this scenario adding the dielectric material in between the plates will have no effect on the capacitance of the plates since the voltage remains unchanged

Explanation:

Normally Introducing a dielectric into a capacitor decreases the electric field, which decreases the voltage, which increases the capacitance.

A capacitor with a dielectric stores the same charge as one without a dielectric, but at a lower voltage.

Voltage and capacitance are inversely proportional when charge is constant.

Now in this case the voltage remains the same hence the charges remain the same also because voltage is inversely proportional to capacitance

Which of the following will not conduct an electrical current?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

<em>Pure water </em><em>won’t  conduct electricity</em>

<em>Option A</em>

Explanation:

Pure water doesn’t contain salts or impurities. It is the salts that dissociate to form ions that act as charge carriers in conducting solutions. For a medium to conduct electricity it should have carriers to carry the electrical charge.

Thus absence of charge carriers make pure water non conducting. Charge carriers in metals are electrons and in ionic solutions they are positive and negative ions.

Tap water, aquarium water and ocean water contains dissolved electrolytes. When electricity is passed through them the electrolytes dissociates into ions and these ions conduct electricity.

In the experiment, a meter is hooked up to a speaker to monitor the amplitude of the received sound. Suppose the background sign
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The answer is "15.38\%"

Explanation:

Background= 13 \ mv\\\\

corrected signal= 91 \ mv-13\ mv= 78\ mv\\\\

with attenuator=25\ mv-13\ mv= 12\ mv\\\\

\to \frac{p_t}{p_i}=\frac{12}{78}\times 100= 15.38\%

The moon Umbriel orbits Uranus (mass = 8.68 x 10^25 kg) at a distance of 2.66 x 10^8 m. What is Umbriel's orbital period (in hou
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

T = 99.51 hour

Explanation:

Mass of Uranus, M=8.68\times 10^{25}\ kg

The moon Umbriel orbits Uranus at a distance of 2.66\times 10^8\ m

We need to find Umbriel's orbital period. Let it is T. Using Kepler's third law of motion to find it.

T^2\propto r^3\\\\T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2r^3}{GM}\\\\T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times (2.66\times 10^8)^3}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 8.68\times 10^{25}}\\\\T=358244.51\ s

As 1 hour = 3600 s

358244.51 s = 99.51 hour

Hence, Umbriel's orbital period is 99.51 hour.

Which of the following describes a condition in which an individual would not hear an echo?
IrinaVladis [17]
If the echo (the reflected sound) reaches your ear less than about
0.1 second after the original sound, your brain doesn't separate them,
and you're not aware of the echo even though it's there.

If the echo comes from, say, a wall, 0.1 second means you'd have to be
about  17 meters away from the wall.  If you're closer than that, then the
echo reaches you in less than 0.1 second and you're not aware of it.

A. 30 meters . . .
     No.  You hear that echo easily

B.  you're standing within range of both sounds . . .
     No. You hear that echo easily, if you're at least 17 meters from the wall.

C.  less than 0.1 second later . . .
     That's it.  The echo is there but your brain doesn't know it.

D.  21.5 meters
     No.  You hear that echo easily.
