About ceramics: Only can be optically opaque or semi-transparent. a) True b)-False

Engineering
1 answer:
julia-pushkina [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: True

Explanation: Ceramics have the property that when the band gap present between the atoms are larger than the light energy then the tend to become opaque because the light scattering is caused . They also show the property of being translucent when there are chances of the light to get a path through the surface of ceramic so they get the light at some parts e.g.porcelain .Therefore the statement given is true that ceramics can be optically opaque or semi-transparent(translucent).

A dielectric material, such as Teflon®, is placed between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor without altering the structur
Lina20 [59]

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.

Which is an alloy made up of iron and carbon and has high compressive and tensile strength?
Digiron [165]

Answer: Steel is an alloy of iron with typically a few percent of carbon to improve its strength and fracture resistance compared to iron. Many other additional elements may be present or added. Stainless steels that are corrosion and oxidation resistant need typically an additional 11% chromium.
