Answer:

The charges on the plates,

Explanation:

A capacitor is an electronic device that can be used for storing of charges. A parallel plate capacitor consists of two plates of equal area separated by a dielectric constant. The energy stored in the capacitor is in the form of potential energy which comes into play during the discharging process of the capacitor.

The energy stored depends majorly on the voltage, area of the plates, distance between the plates and the nature of the dielectric constant of the material between the plates. But it does not depend on the charges on the plates.

Suppose your friend claims to have discovered a mysterious force in nature that acts on all particles in some region of space. H
kirill [66]

Answer:

             U = 1 / r²

Explanation:

In this exercise they do not ask for potential energy giving the expression of force, since these two quantities are related

             

         F = - dU / dr

this derivative is a gradient, that is, a directional derivative, so we must have

          dU = - F. dr

the esxresion for strength is

         F = B / r³

let's replace

          ∫ dU = - ∫ B / r³  dr

in this case the force and the displacement are parallel, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

let's evaluate the integrals

            U - Uo = -B (- / 2r² + 1 / 2r₀²)

To complete the calculation we must fix the energy at a point, in general the most common choice is to make the potential energy zero (Uo = 0) for when the distance is infinite (r = ∞)

             U = B / 2r²

we substitute the value of B = 2

             U = 1 / r²

What is the longest wavelength light capable of ionizing a hydrogen atom in the ground state?
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

9.12\cdot 10^{-8} m

Explanation:

The energy needed to ionize a hydrogen atom in the ground state is:

E=13.6 eV= 2.18\cdot 10^{-18}J

The energy of the photon is related to the wavelength by

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where

h is the Planck constant

c is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength

Solving the formula for the wavelength, we find

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{2.18\cdot 10^{-18}J}=9.12\cdot 10^{-8} m

Traffic officials indicate, it takes longer to ______ when you drive fast.
nignag [31]
The answer in the blank is that it is difficult to accelerate at decelerate the vehicle when it is on a fast speed because having a fast speed makes it difficult to adjust the meter as well as if you try to decelerate the vehicle, it could burn out the tires and engine as it is in the fast speed, in accelerating it, it could also be complicated because it would only make the car faster enough that you may no longer control of how to stop it.
