L10) Consider two parallel plate capacitors each with area 1 cm2 and separation 1 mm. These capacitors are placed in series under a power source giving 120 V. What is the energy stored on each capacitor?

Explanation:

Formula for the capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is as follows.

           C =

where,   A = area = 1 =

              d = diameter = 1 mm =

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

              C =

                  =

                  =

Now, we will calculate the energy stored in the capacitor as follows.

       U =

           =

           =

or,        =

Thus, we can conclude that energy stored on each capacitor is .

answer: d. a cme increases the amount of energy in the solar wind

explanation:

coronal mass ejections, also called cmes, are large clouds of plasma and magnetic field that erupt from the sun. only when the cloud is aimed at earth will the cme hit earth and therefore cause impacts. high-speed solar wind streams come from areas on the sun known as coronal holes.
