How does the capacitance of capacitor vary with the dielectric resistant of a medium

Physics
1 answer:
Snowcat [4.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Every dielectric medium will have a dielectric (strength) constant.

For space / vacuum it is 1. For rest of the dielectric media, it is greater than 1. The capacitance of a capacitor filled with a material of dielectric constant k, is given by the relation:

C = k . C0 (where C0 is the capacitance with space / vacuum as the dielectric material in that capacitor which means no dielectric between the plates)

So, it clearly states that the higher the dielectric constant, the more the capacitance i.e. it is directly proportional to the dielectric strength.

Dielectric constant varies with temperature.

Which one of the following statements concerning emf is true?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

C) Emf is the force exerted on a single charge to move it from one terminal to the other of an emf device.

Explanation:

Electromotive force, abbreviation E or emf, electrical energy per unit supplied from an energy source, such as an electrical generator or a battery. In the engine or battery, electricity is transformed from one source to another as the device works on the electrical charge that is passed within itself.

In physics it is defined as Work done by a cell or battery in moving a unit charge from its one terminal to the other, against the potential.

Hence C is correct

9) What is the temperature of 5 moles of nitrogen at 1 atm in a 2 liter container?*
REY [17]

Answer:

4.88 K.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of mole (n) = 5 moles

Pressure (P) = 1 atm

Volume (V) = 2 L

Gas constant (R) = 0.082 atm.L/Kmol

Temperature (T) =?

The temperature of the gas can be obtained by using the ideal gas equation as illustrated below:

PV = nRT

1 × 2 = 5 × 0.082 × T

2 = 0.41 × T

Divide both side by 0.41

T = 2 / 0.41

T = 4.88 K

Therefore, the temperature of the gas is 4.88 K.

A 15.5 kg block is pulled by two forces. The first is 11.8 N at a 53.7 angle and the second is 22.9 at a -15.8 angle. What is th
Ainat [17]

Answer:

1.88 m/s^2 at 6.5^{\circ}

Explanation:

We need to calculate the components of the resultant force on both the x (horizontal) and y (vertical) direction.

Components of the first force F1:

F_{1x} =(11.8) cos (53.7^{\circ})=7.0 N\\F_{1y} = (11.8) sin (53.7^{\circ})=9.5 N

Components of the second force F2:

F_{2x} =(22.9) cos (-15.8^{\circ})=22.0 N\\F_{2y} = (22.9) sin (-15.8^{\circ})=-6.2 N

So the components of the resultant force are

R_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=7.0+22.0 = 29.0 N\\R_y = F_{1y}+F_{2y} = 9.5+(-6.2)=3.3 N

So the magnitude of the resultant force is

F=\sqrt{(29.0)^2+(3.3)^2}=29.2 N

And the direction is

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{R_y}{R_x})=tan^{-1} (\frac{3.3}{29.0})=6.5^{\circ}

The magnitude of the acceleration can be found by using Newton's second law:

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{29.2 N}{15.5 kg}=1.88 m/s^2

while the direction is the same as the resultant force, 6.5^{\circ}.
