Answer:

Hot summer

Explanation:

If the body is exposed to heat then it would decompose faster because the climate is more humid. Whereas if it was in the cold winter then it would decompose slower (not to mention that it could freeze causing it not to decompose at all).

A parallel-plate capacitor is formed from two 1.6 cm -diameter electrodes spaced 2.8 mm apart. The electric field strength insid

lidiya [134]

Answer:

12 nC

Explanation:

Capacity of the parallel plate capacitor

C = ε₀ A/d

ε₀ is constant having value of 8.85 x 10⁻¹² , A area of plate , d is distance between plate

Area of plate = π r²

= 3.14 x (0.8x 10⁻²)²

= 2 x 10⁻⁴

C = ( 8.85 X 10⁻¹² x 2 x 10⁻⁴ ) / 2.8 x 10⁻³

= 7.08 x 10⁻¹³

Potential difference between plate = field strength x distance between plate

= 6 x 10⁶ x 2.8 x 10⁻³

= 16.8 x 10³ V

Charge on plate = CV

=7.08 x 10⁻¹³ X 16.8 X 10³

11.9 X 10⁻⁹ C

12 nC .

What is the benefit of developing the atomic mass unit as a standard unit of mass?

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The atomic mass unit is 1/12 of an atom of carbon 12, and is a very small amount to represent in kilograms:

$1m_{u}=1.66054x10^{-27}kg$

$m_{u}$ is atomic mass unit.

This is why the benefits of the atomic mass unit is that it makes the representation of atomic masses easier in terms of the simplicity of the numbers that are used to represent the masses. Also using the atomic mass unit it is easier to compare the masses of different atoms, These numbers would be very small and would require negative powers of 10 to represent them, so it is more convenient to use the atomic mass unit.

The Coulomb force between two charges q1 and q2 at separation r in the air is 10N. If half of the separation is filled with medi

adoni [48]

Answer:

The value of new coulomb force is 1.43 N.

Explanation:

Given;

Coulomb's force in vacuum (air), $F_v$ = 10 N

dielectric constant, K = 7

The Coulomb's force between two charges separated by a distance r in a vacuum is given as;

$F_v = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

The Coulomb's force between two charges separated by a distance r in a medium with dielectric constant is given as

$F_m = \frac{1}{4\pi K\epsilon_0} \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

Take the ratio of the two forces;

$\frac{F_v}{F_m} = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2} \ \times \ \frac{4\pi K\epsilon_0 r^2}{q_1q_2} = K\\\\\frac{F_v}{F_m} = K\\\\\frac{10}{F_m} = 7\\\\F_m = \frac{10}{7} \\\\F_m = 1.43 \ N$

Therefore, the value of new coulomb force is 1.43 N.
