You have two square metal plates with side lengths of (6.50 C) cm. You want to make a parallel-plate capacitor that will hold a

charge of (12.5 A) nC when connected to a (34.8 B) V potential difference. Determine the necessary separation in mm. Round your answer to three significant figures.

Answer:

The necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm

Explanation:

Given;

length of each side of the square plate, L = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

charge on each plate, Q = 12.5 nC

potential difference across the plates, V = 34.8 V

Potential difference across parallel plates is given as;

$V = \frac{Qd}{L^2 \epsilon_o} \\\\d = \frac{V L^2 \epsilon_o}{Q}$

Where;

d is the separation or distance between the two parallel plates;

$d = \frac{VL^2 \epsilon_o}{Q} \\\\d = \frac{34.8*(0.065)^2 *8.854*10^{-12}}{12.5*10^{-9}} \\\\d = 0.000104 \ m\\\\d = 0.104 \ mm$

Therefore, the necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm

Identical cannon balls are fired with the same force, one each from four cannons having respective bore lengths of 1.0 meter, 2.

Gala2k [10]

To answer this question, we must bear in mind the following considerations that are mentioned in the statement:

The cannon balls are identical and shoot with the same force

The force acting on the cannonball increases with the length of the hole.

You want to know which cannon will have the least momentum on the ball.

Then, the force on the ball increases as the barrel length increases and the impulse depends on the magnitude of the force, then, the cannon that will have the minimum impulse will be the 1 meter one.

The answer is option B.

A "biconvex" lens is one in which both surfaces of the lens bulge outwards. Suppose you had a biconvex lens with radii of curvat

Stolb23 [73]

Answer: f=150cm in water and f=60cm in air.

Explanation: Focal length is a measurement of how strong light is converged or diverged by a system. To find the variable, it can be used the formula:

$\frac{1}{f}$ = (nglass - ni)( $\frac{1}{R1}$ - $\frac{1}{R2}$ ).

nglass is the index of refraction of the glass;

ni is the index of refraction of the medium you want, water in this case;

R1 is the curvature through which light enters the lens;

R2 is the curvature of the surface which it exits the lens;

Substituting and calculating for water (nwater = 1.3):

$\frac{1}{f}$ = (1.5 - 1.3)( $\frac{1}{10}$ - $\frac{1}{15}$ )

$\frac{1}{f}$ = 0.2( $\frac{1}{30}$ )

f = $\frac{30}{0.2}$ = 150

For air (nair = 1):

$\frac{1}{f}$ = (1.5 - 1)( $\frac{1}{10}$ - $\frac{1}{15}$ )

f = $\frac{30}{0.5}$ = 60

In water, the focal length of the lens is f = 150cm.

In air, f = 60cm.

In the absence of air resistance, at what other angle will a thrown ball go the same distance as one thrown at an angle of 75 de

snow_tiger [21]

As we know that range of the projectile motion is given by

$R = \frac{v^2 sin(2\theta)}{g}$

here we know that range will be same for two different angles

so here we can say the two angle must be complementary angles

so the two angles must be

$\theta, 90 - \theta$

so it is given that one of the projection angle is 75 degree

so other angle for same range must be 90 - 75 = 15 degree

so other projection angle must be 15 degree

Consider a double-slit with a distance between the slits of 0.04 mm and slit width of 0.01 mm. Suppose the screen is a distance

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slits = 0.04 mm

Width = 0.01 mm

Distance between the slits and screen = 1 m

Wavelength = 600 nm

We need to calculate the distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

For constructive fringe

First minima from center

$x_{1}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}$

Second minima from center

$x_{2}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}$

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

$\Delta x_{d}=x_{2}-x_{1}$

$\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}-\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}$

$\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{600\times10^{-9}\times1}{0.04\times10^{-3}}$

$\Delta x_{d}=0.015 =15\times10^{-3}\ m$

$\Delta x_{d}=15\ mm$

Hence, The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.
