Answer:

d=1.84\ mm

Explanation:

<u>Capacitance</u>

A two parallel-plate capacitor has a capacitance of

\displaystyle C=\frac{\epsilon_o A}{d}

where

\epsilon_o=8.85\cdot 10^{-12}\ F/m

A = area of the plates = \pi r^2

d = separation of the plates

\displaystyle d=\frac{\epsilon_o A}{C}=\frac{\epsilon_o \pi r^2}{C}

We need to compute C. We'll use the circuit parameters for that. The reactance of a capacitor is given by

\displaystyle X_c=\frac{1}{wC}

where w is the angular frequency

w=2\pi f=2\pi \cdot 36000=226194.67\ rad/s

Solving for C

\displaystyle C=\frac{1}{wX_c}

The reactance can be found knowing the total impedance of the circuit:

Z^2=R^2+X_c^2

Where R is the resistance, R=15 K\Omega=15000\Omega. Solving for Xc

X_c^2=Z^2-R^2

The magnitude of the impedance is computed as the ratio of the rms voltage and rms current

\displaystyle Z=\frac{V}{I}

The rms current is the peak current Ip divided by \sqrt{2}, thus

\displaystyle Z=\frac{\sqrt{2}V}{I_p}

I_p=0.65\ mA/1000=0.00065\ A

Now collect formulas

\displaystyle X_c^2=Z^2-R^2=\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}V}{I_p}\right)^2-R^2

Or, equivalently

\displaystyle X_c=\sqrt{\frac{2V^2}{I_p^2}-R^2}

\displaystyle X_c=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot 18^2}{0.00065^2}-15000^2}

X_c=36176.34\ \Omega

The capacitance is now

\displaystyle C=\frac{1}{226194.67\cdot 36176.34}=1.22\cdot 10^{-10}\ F

The radius of the plates is

r=18\ cm/2=9 \ cm = 0.09 \ m

The separation between the plates is

\displaystyle d=\frac{8.85\cdot 10^{-12} \cdot \pi\cdot 0.09^2}{1.22\cdot 10^{-10}}

d=0.00184\ m

\boxed{d=1.84\ mm}

6.) What is
Feliz [49]

Answer:

100 V

Explanation:

Hi there!

Ohm's law states that V=IR where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance.

Plug the given information into Ohm's law (R=50, I=A)

V=IR\\V=(2)(50)\\V=100

Therefore, the voltage across this current is 100 V.

I hope this helps!

A diet is to contain at least 2400 mg vitamin C, 1800mg Calcium, and 1200 calories every day. Two foods, a dairy-based meal and
Kay [80]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Let x represent the number of ounce of dairy based meal and let y represent the number of vegan option in ounce.

Since the diet must contain at least 2400 mg vitamin C, therefore:

50x + 20y ≥ 2400

Since the diet must contain at least 1800 mg Calcium, therefore:

30x + 20y ≥ 1200

Since the diet must contain at least 1200 calories, therefore:

10x + 40y ≥ 1200

Therefore the constraints are:

50x + 20y ≥ 2400

30x + 20y ≥ 1200

10x + 40y ≥ 1200

x > 0, y > 0

The graph was drawn using geogebra online graphing tool, and the solution to the problem is at:

C(30, 45) and D(48, 18)

dairy-based meal costs $0.042 per ounce and the vegan option costs $0.208 per ounce. The cost equation is:

Cost = 0.042x + 0.208y

At C(30, 45);  Cost = 0.042(30) + 0.208(45) = $10.62

At C(48, 18);  Cost = 0.042(48) + 0.208(18) = $5.76

The minimum cost is at (48, 18). That is 48 dairy based meal and 18 vegan

Explain how you find the density of a liquid subtance example corn syrup
STatiana [176]
Use the density formula:

Mass of the substance
————————————
Volume of the substance

This gives you the density.


Corn syrup has a density of about 1.4 grams per cubic centimeter, and has the highest density of all liquids!

Hope this helps!

Which BMI standard for teens is considered under weight?
Lena [83]
First let’s pick one at random

Less than 5 percentile

That means they lined 100 kids up and less than 5% of them are that certain weight.

So if you apply this to every option you will see the answer is
A). Less than 5 percentile

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

I'm going to say b. gasoline is a chemical and when it combusts, it causes heat (thermal energy) and when the piston rotates because of the thermal expansion, you get mechanical force.
