Recall that the magnitude of the acceleration a of a particle moving with speed v in a circular path around a point at a distance R away from the particle is given by

a=\dfrac{v^2}R

So, the satellite has velocity

6.2\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}=\dfrac{v^2}{800\,\rm m}\implies v=70.4\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

pointing in the direction tangent to the circular path.

An air-filled parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery and allowed to charge up. Now a slab of dielectric material is
natita [175]

Answer:

The charge on the capacitor had increased

Explanation:

The expression for the capacitance of an air-filled parallel-plate capacitor is as follows as;

C=\frac{\epsilon _{0}A}{d}  

Here, C is the capacitance, \epsilon _{0} is the permittivity of free space, A is the area and d is the distance between the parallel plate capacitor.

When a slab of dielectric material is placed between the plates of the capacitor then the expression for the capacitance is as follows;

C=\frac{K\epsilon _{0}A}{d}

Here, K is the dielectric constant.

In the given problem, a slab is inserted between the plates of the capacitor then the capacitance of the capacitor will increase in this case. Therefore, the option (a) is true.

The expression for the charge stored in the capacitor is as;

Q= CV

Here, Q is the charge and V is the potential.

The charge will also increase in this case as the charge stored in the capacitor is directly proportional to the capacitance. Therefore, the option (d) is not true.

The expression for the energy stored in the capacitor is as follows;

E=\frac{CV^{2}}{2}

The voltage is constant in the given problem but the capacitance increases then the energy stored in the capacitor will increase. Therefore, the option (b) is not true.

The voltage across the capacitor will remain same as the capacitor is still connected to the battery. Therefore, the option (c) is not true.

Therefore, only option (a) is true.

A woman sits on a spinning piano stool with her arms extended. When she folds her arms, which of the following occurs? Question
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The correct option is that (She decreases her moment of inertia, thereby increasing her angular speed.)

Explanation:

When an object is in circular motion, the vector that describes it is known as angular momentum. Angular momentum is conserved or constant when an object is spinning in a closed system and no external torques are applied to it. An example of conservation of angular momentum is seen when a woman is sitting on a spinning piano stool with her arms extended. Her angular momentum is conserved because the net torque on her is negligibly small as the friction is exerted very close to the pivot point.

When she folds her arms,her rate of spin increases greatly decreasing her moment of inertia. The work she does to pull in her arms results in an increase in rotational kinetic energy( that is, increase in her angular speed). I hope this helps, thanks!
