Two 4.3546 cm x 4.3546 cm square aluminum electrodes, spaced 0.6408 mm apart are connected to a 73.68 V battery. What is the cap

Helen [10]

Answer:

Capacitance, C = 26.1 picofarad

Explanation:

It is given that,

Side of square, x = 4.3546 cm = 0.043546 m

Distance between electrodes, d = 0.6408 mm = 0.0006408 m

Voltage, V = 73.68 V

Capacitance of parallel plates is given by :

$C=\dfrac{\epsilon_oA}{d}$

$C=\dfrac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times (0.043546)^2}{0.0006408}$

$C=2.61\times 10^{-11}\ F$

C = 26.1 picofarad

So, the capacitance of the capacitor is 26.1 picofarad. Hence, this is the required solution.

An auditorium measures 40.0 m 3 20.0 m 3 12.0 m. The density of air is 1.20 kg/m3. What are (a) the volume of the room in cubic

Burka [1]

We use the formula,

m = V\rho

Here, m is the mass, V is the volume and $\rho$ density

Also

$V = l w h$

Here l is length, w is width and h is height.

(a) The volume of the room,

$V=40.0 \ m \times 3 20.0 \ m \times 3 12.0\ m = 3.99 \times 10^{6} m^3$

The volume of the room in cubic feet,

$V = 3.99 \times 10^{6} m^3 \times(\frac{3.281 \ ft}{m} )^3 = 4.3 \times 10^7 \ ft^3$

(b) Now the mass of the air in room,

$m= (3.99 \times 10^{6} \ m^3) (1.20 \ kg/m^3) = 4.8 \times 10^6 kg$ .

Therefore, the weight of the air in room,

$W = mg= 4.8 \times 10^6 kg \times 9.8 m/s^2 = 46.9 \times 10^6 \ N \\\\ W = 4.69 \times 10^7 \ N$ .

The weight of air in the room in pounds,

$W = 4.69 \times 10^7 \ N ( \frac{1 \ lb}{4.448 \ N} ) = 1.1 \times 10^7 \ lb$

A shopper pushes a grocery cart 20.0 m at constant speed on level ground, against a 35.0 n frictional force. he pushes in a dire

alexandr1967 [171]

Work is calculated as the product of Force, Distance, and angular motion. In this case, the work done by gravity is perpendicular to the motion of the cart, so θ = 90°

and W=Fdcosθ

W=35.0 N x 20.0 m x cos90

W=0 J

This means that work done perpendicular to the direction of the motion is always zero.

Structures on a bird feather act like a diffraction grating having 8000 8000 lines per centimeter. What is the angle of the firs

sammy [17]

Answer:

Angle of first order maximum, $\theta=21.19^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of the light, $\lambda=452\ nm=452\times 10^{-9}\ m$

Number of lines, N = 8000 per cm

The relation between the number of lines and the slit width is given by :

$d=\dfrac{1}{N}$

$d=\dfrac{1}{8000/cm}$

$d=0.000125\ cm=1.25\times 10^{-6}\ m$

The equation of grating is given by :

$d\ sin\theta=n\lambda$

n = 1

$sin\theta=\dfrac{\lambda}{d}$

$sin\theta=\dfrac{452\times 10^{-9}}{1.25\times 10^{-6}}$

$\theta=21.19^{\circ}$

So, the angle of the first-order maximum is 21.19 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.
