Answer:
3099 J
Explanation:
The increase in thermal energy corresponds to the mechanical energy lost in the process.
The mechanical energy is given by the sum of gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy of the fireman:

At the top of the pole, the fireman has no kinetic energy, so all his mechanical energy is just potential energy:

When the fireman reaches the bottom, he has no gravitational potential energy, so his mechanical energy is just given by his kinetic energy:

So, the loss in mechanical energy was

and this corresponds to the increase in thermal energy.
Answer:
a. Decreases
b. Increases
c. Remains the same
d. Increases
Explanation:
a. Capacitance is given by c= Ak€/d
where A is conductivity plate with Area
K is a constant
€ is dielectric with permittivity.
d is the distance
b. Potential difference is given by
V = Ed, since, the electric field remains the
same, the potential diterence also increases with increase in distance.
Since the capacitance depends upon the distance, and all the other factors are kept constant, the capacitance decreases.
c. Electric field remains the same because charge on the
plate remains the same.
d. since electric field remains the same and capacitance decreases, the energy increases.
E= 1/2c * Q^2
Please reply to this with your question I would like to help.
Sliding and Static.
Would be the right one here.
The answer will be b but check it by yourself we are humans
