A capacitor with air between its plates ischarged to 60 V and then disconnected fromthe battery. When a piece of glass is placed

between the plates, the voltage across thecapacitor drops to 46 V.What is the dielectric constant of this glass?Assume the glass completely fills the spacebetween the plates.

Answer:

       k = 1.30

Explanation:

For this exercise let's write the capacitance in air and with dielectric

air             C₀ = Q / DV

dielectric  C = k Q / DV

They tell us that the capacitor is charged and then the battery is disconnected, therefore the charge stored on the plate remains constant.

                         

therefore the capacitance a changes to the value

           C = k C₀

The voltage in the presence of dielectric must meet the relationship

           ΔV = ΔV₀ / k

           k = ΔV₀ /ΔV

let's calculate

           k = 60/46

           k = 1.30

A 1.0-cm-tall object is 13 cm in front of a converging lens that has a 40 cm focal length.
kicyunya [14]

A) Image position: -19.3 cm

B) Image height: 1.5 cm, upright

Explanation:

A)

In order to calculate the image position, we can use the lens equation:

\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}

where

p is the distance of the object from the lens

q is the distance of the image from the lens

f is the focal length

In this problem, we have:

p = 13 cm (object distance)

f = 40 cm (focal length, positive for a converging lens)

So the image distance is

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{40}-\frac{1}{13}=-0.0519\\q=\frac{1}{-0.0519}=-19.3 cm

The negative sign means that the image is virtual.

B)

In order to calculate the image height, we use the magnification equation:

\frac{y'}{y}=-\frac{q}{p}

where

y' is the image height

y is the object height

In this problem, we have:

y = 1.0 cm (object height)

p = 13 cm

q = -19.3 cm

Therefore, the image heigth is

y'=-\frac{qy}{p}=-\frac{(-19.3)(1.0)}{13}=1.5 cm

And the positive sign means the image is upright.

A block with m = 300 grams oscillates at the end of a linear spring with k = 6.5 N/m. (assume this is a top-down view and the bl
inna [77]

Answer:

a) T=1.35s

b) amplitude = 0.0923m

Explanation:

m=300 gr

k=6.5 N/m

first we need to get the angular frequency of the motion

so we have that

ω = √(k/m)

in this case motion is a simple harmonic so the period is defined by:

T= 2π / ω

T= 2π / √(k/m)

replacing the variables...

T= 2π / √(6.5/0.3)

T=1.35s   (period of the block's motion)

and...

α max = | ω²r max |

2 = (2π/1.35)² * r max

r max= 0.0923m
