When the Moon passes between Sun and Earth, the lunar shadow is seen as a solar eclipse on Earth. When Earth passes directly between Sun and Moon, its shadow creates a lunar eclipse. Lunar eclipses can only happen when the Moon is opposite the Sun in the sky, a monthly occurrence we know as a full Moon.

Two parallel-plate capacitors have the same plate area, but the plate gap in capacitor 1 is twice as big as capacitor 2. If capa
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Capacitance of the second capacitor = 2C

Explanation:

\texttt{Capacitance, C}=\frac{\varepsilon_0A}{d}

Where A is the area, d is the gap between plates and ε₀ is the dielectric constant.

Let C₁ be the capacitance of first capacitor with area A₁ and gap between plates d₁.

We have    

              \texttt{Capacitance, C}_1=\frac{\varepsilon_0A_1}{d_1}=C

Similarly for capacitor 2

               \texttt{Capacitance, C}_2=\frac{\varepsilon_0A_2}{d_2}=\frac{\varepsilon_0A_1}{\frac{d_1}{2}}=2\times \frac{\varepsilon_0A_1}{d_1}=2C

Capacitance of the second capacitor = 2C

You are working as a summer intern for the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and are assigned to some initial work
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

1) Pressure acting on the plug = Patm + P

Pressure = Patm + rho*g*h (Here h = D2)

Pressure = 101325 + 1000*9.8*7

Pressure = 169925 Pa

so, Force = PA

Force = 169925*pi*0.0152

Force = 120.1 N
