A capacitor consists of two closely spaced metal conductors of large area, separated by a thin insulating foil. It has an electrical capacity of 3800.0 μF and is charged to a potential difference of 78.0 V. Calculate the amount of energy stored in the capacitor. Tries 0/20 Calculate the charge on this capacitor when the electrical energy stored in the capacitor is 6.84 J. Tries 0/20 If the two plates of the capacitor have their separation increased by a factor of 4 while the charge on the plates remains constant, by what factor is the energy stored in the capacitor increased?

- E = 11.55J

- Q = 0.17C

- E' = (1/4)E

Explanation:

- To calculate the amount of energy stored in the capacitor, you use the following formula:

C: capacitance = 3800.0*10^-6F

V: potential difference = 78.0V

The energy stored in the capacitor is 11.55J

- If the electrical energy stored in the capacitor is 6.84J, the charge on the capacitor is:

The charge on the capacitor is 0.17C

- If you take the capacitor as a parallel plate capacitor, you have that the energy stored on the capacitor is:

A: area of the plates

d: distance between plates

If the distance between plates is increased by a factor of 4, you have:

Then, the stored energy in the capacitor is decreased by a a factor of (1/4)

the earths atmosphere is made up of nitrogen and oxygen. solids can turn into gasses through a process called sublimation. sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase, without passing through the intermediate liquid phase.
