Capacitors are essentially two plates that are mounted next to each other, with a gap between them so that the plates don't touch. Direct current can't jump the gap between plates, because it would take a massive amount of voltage to force the electron to jump the gap between plates. The electrons hit the plate and stop. Alternating current, on the other hand, is moving the electrons back and forth in place -- so the plate on one side of the capacitor is constantly having electrons pushed in and then pulled back out. This motion creates a small electric field which induces the same alternating current in the other plate, because electric fields can jump the gap between plates. Therefore it is possible with ac supply only to make capcitor work.

The law of conservation of matter states that during a chemical reaction, the amount of matter
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Stays the same.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of matter states that in chemical reactions, the total mass of the products must equal the total mass of the reactants, in other words, it must stay the same.

A piece of copper wire is formed into a single circular loop of radius 9.1 cm. A magnetic field is oriented parallel to the norm
bazaltina [42]

Given Information:  

Radius of circular loop = r = 9.1 cm = 0.091 m  

Change in time = Δt = 0.66 seconds

Change in magnetic field = ΔB = 0.90 T

Resistance of wire per unit length = R = 2.9x10⁻²  Ω/m

Number of turns = N = 1

Required Information:  

Electrical energy dissipated = E = ?  

Answer:  

Electrical energy dissipated = 50.09x10⁻³ Joules  

Step-by-step explanation:  

We know that energy is given by

E = Pt

Where power is given by

P = ξ²/R

Where ξ is the induced EMF in the wire and is given by

ξ = -NΔΦ/Δt

Where ΔΦ is the change in flux and is given by

ΔΦ = ΔBAcosφ

Where φ is the angle between magnetic field and circular loop

A = πr² and R = 2.9x10⁻²*2πr

Substituting the above relations into the energy equation and simplifying yields,

E = [-Nπr²cosφ(ΔB/Δt)²]*t/R

E = [-1*π(0.091)²*cos(0)(0.90/0.66)²*0.66]/2.9x10⁻²*2π*(0.091)

E = 0.050094 Joules

E = 50.09x10⁻³ Joules

Therefore, the average electrical energy dissipated in the circular loop of the wire is 50.09x10⁻³ Joules.
