An air capacitor is made by using two flat plates, each with area A, separated by a distance d. Then a metal slab having thickness a (less than d) and the same shape and size as the plates is inserted between them, parallel to the plates and not touching either plate. Required:
a. What is the capacitance of this arrangement?
b. Express the capacitance as a multiple of the capacitance Co when the metal slab is not present?
c. Discuss what happens to the capacitance in the limits a--> 0 and a -->d.

To travel at constant speed, a car engine provides 24kw of useful power. the driving force on the car is 600n. at what speed does it travel?

At very high pressures, gases become and will eventually a) more dense; become hotter b) more dense; change to a liquid or solid c) less dense; combust d) less dense; turn into a liquid

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?
