ch other. Between the electrodes but not near their edges, the electric field strength is 2.5 × 106 N/C. What is the magnitude of the charge on each electrode? (ε0 = 8.85 × 10-12 C2/N ∙ m2)

Answer:

1.77 x 10^-8 C

Explanation:

Let the surface charge density of each of the plate is σ.

A = 4 x 4 = 16 cm^2 = 16 x 10^-4 m^2

d = 2 mm

E = 2.5 x 10^6 N/C

ε0 = 8.85 × 10-12 C2/N ∙ m2

Electric filed between the plates (two oppositively charged)

E = σ / ε0

σ = ε0 x E

σ = 8.85 x 10^-12 x 2.5 x 10^6 = 22.125 x 10^-6 C/m^2

The surface charge density of each plate is ± σ / 2

So, the surface charge density on each = ± 22.125 x 10^-6 / 2

                                                                 = ± 11.0625 x 10^-6 C/m^2  

Charge on each plate = Surface charge density on each plate x area of each plate

Charge on each plate = ± 11.0625 x 10^-6  x 16 x 10^-4 = ± 1.77 x 10^-8 C

Suppose that a barometer was made using oil with rho=900 kg/m3. What is the height of the barometer at atmospheric pressure?
rewona [7]

Hey there!

The pressure under a liquid column can be , calculated using  the following formula :

P = p x g x h  

P atm = 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = ?

h =  P / ( p x g ) =

h= ( 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa ) / ( 900 x 9.8 ) =

h = ( 1.013 x 10⁵ ) / ( 8820 ) =

h = 11.48 m ≈  11.50 m

Hope this helps!

A football player kicks a football downfield. The height of the football increases until it reaches a maximum height of 15 yards
Trava [24]

Answer:

kick 1 has travelled 15 + 15 = 30 yards before hitting the ground

so kick 2 travels 25 + 25 = 50 yards before hitting the ground

first kick reached 8 yards and 2nd kick reached 20 yards  

Explanation:

1st kick travelled 15 yards to reach maximum height of 8 yards

so, it has travelled 15 + 15 = 30 yards before hitting the ground

2nd kick is given by the equation

y (x) = -0.032x(x - 50)

Y = 1.6 X - 0.032x^2

we know that maximum height occurs is given as

x = -\frac{b}{2a}

y =- \frac{1.6}{2(-0.032)} = 25

and maximum height is

y = 1.6\times 25 - 0.032\times 25^2

y = 20

so kick 2 travels 25 + 25 = 50 yards before hitting the ground

first kick reached 8 yards and 2nd kick reached 20 yards

Physics Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good work on solving part a).
b) may look complicated, but it's not too bad.

It says that the body is 25% efficient in converting fat to mechanical energy.
In other words, only 25% of the energy we get from our stored fat shows up
in the physical, mechanical moving around that we do.  (The rest becomes
heat, which dissipates into the environment as we keep our bodies warm,
breathe hot air out,and perspire.)

You already know how much mechanical energy the climber needed to lift
himself to the top of the mountain... 2.4x10⁶ joules.
That's 25% of what he needs to convert in order to accomplish the climb.
He needs to pull 4 times as much energy out of fat.

-- Fat energy required = 4 x (2.4 x 10⁶) = 9.6 x 10⁶ joules.

-- Amount stored in 1kg of fat = 3.8 x 10⁷ joules

-- Portion of a kilogram he needs to use =   (9.6 x 10⁶) / (3.8 x 10⁷)

Note:
That much of a kilogram weighs about 8.9 ounces ... which shows why it's so
hard to lose weight with physical exercise alone.  It also helps you appreciate
that fat is much more efficient at storing energy than batteries are ... that one
kilogram of fat stores the amount of energy used by a 100-watt light bulb, to
burn for 105 hours (more than 4-1/2 days ! ! !)

The average kinetic energy of the molecules of an ideal gas at 10∘C has the value K10. At what temperature T1 (in degrees Celsiu
Westkost [7]

Answer:

A) T1 = 566 k = 293°C

B) T2 = 1132 k = 859°C

Explanation:

A)

The average kinetic energy of the molecules of an ideal gas is givwn by the formula:

K.E = (3/2)KT

where,

K.E = Average Kinetic Energy

K = Boltzman Constant

T = Absolute Temperature

At 10°C:

K.E = K10

T = 10°C + 273 = 283 K

Therefore,

K10 = (3/2)(K)(283)

FOR TWICE VALUE OF K10:

T = T1

Therefore,

2 K10 = (3/2)(K)(T1)

using the value of K10:

2(3/2)(K)(283) = (3/2)(K)(T1)

<u>T1 = 566 k = 293°C</u>

<u></u>

B)

The average kinetic energy of the molecules of an ideal gas is given by the formula:

K.E = (3/2)KT

but K.E is also given by:

K.E = (1/2)(m)(vrms)²

Therefore,

(3/2)KT = (1/2)(m)(vrms)²

vrms = √(3KT/m)

where,

vrms = Root Mean Square Velocity of Molecule

K = Boltzman Constant

T = Absolute Temperature

m = mass

At

T = 10°C + 273 = 283 K

vrms = √[3K(283)/m]

FOR TWICE VALUE OF vrms:

T = T2

Therefore,

2 vrms = √(3KT2/m)

using the value of vrms:

2√[3K(283)/m] = √(3KT2/m)

2√283 = √T2

Squaring on both sides:

(4)(283) = T2

<u>T2 = 1132 k = 859°C</u>
