A certain capacitor is charged to a potential differenceV. If you wish to increase its stored energy by 10%, by what percentage should you increaseV?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Percentage increase in potential difference V is 4.9%.

Step by step solution

01

The given data

Increased stored energy,

U/U=10%=0.1

02

Understanding the concept of the stored energy

In the capacitor, electrostatic potential energy is stored. Therefore, it has to do with the charge and voltage between the capacitor's plates. Here, we need to use the formula of energy stored in the capacitor to find the percentage of the required increase in potential difference.

Formula:

The energy stored between the capacitors,U=12CV2 鈥(颈)

03

Step 3: Calculation of the increased percentage of potential difference

If the increase in the stored energy is by small amount U, then we must have to increase the potential difference by small amountV. Thus, the increased equation is given using equation (i) as follows:

U+U=12CV+V2U1+UU=12CV21+VV2U1+UU=U1+VV2fromequationi1+UU=1+VVVV=1+UU-1=1+0.1-1=1.1-1=0.049=4.9%

Hence, the value of the increased percentage in the potential difference is 4.9%.

Gold, which has a density of19.32g/cm3, is the most ductile metal and can be pressed into a thin leaf or drawn out into a long fiber. (a) If a sample of gold, with a mass of 27.63 g, is pressed into a leaf of 1.000 碌m thickness, what is the area of the leaf? (b) If, instead, the gold is drawn out into a cylindrical fiber of radius 2.500 碌m, what is the length of the fiber?

An old English cookbook carries this recipe for cream of nettle soup: 鈥淏oil stock of the following amount: 1 breakfastcup plus 1 teacup plus 6 tablespoons plus 1 dessertspoon. Using gloves, separate nettle tops until you have 0.5 quart; add the tops to the boiling stock. Add 1 tablespoon of cooked rice and 1 saltspoon of salt. Simmer for 15 min.鈥 The following table gives some of the conversions among old (premetric) British measures and among common (still premetric) U.S. measures. (These measures just scream for metrication.) For liquid measures, 1 British teaspoon = 1 U.S. teaspoon. For dry measures, 1 British teaspoon = 2 U.S. teaspoons and 1 British quart =1 U.S. quart. In U.S. measures, how much (a) stock, (b) nettle tops, (c) rice, and (d) salt are required in the recipe?

teaspoon = 2 saltspoons

tablespoon = 3 teaspoons

dessertspoon = 2 teaspoons

half cup = 8 tablespoons

tablespoon = 2 dessertspoons

cup = 2 half cups

teacup = 8 tablespoons


breakfastcup = 2 teacups

Two waves,

(b) The resultant wave is the superposition of a standing wave and a traveling wave. In which direction does the traveling wave move? (c) How can you change the original waves so the resultant wave is the superposition of standing and traveling waves with the same amplitudes as before but with the traveling wave moving in the opposite direction? Next, use your graphs to find the place at which the oscillation amplitude is (d) maximum and (e) minimum. (f) How is the maximum amplitude related to the amplitudes of the original two waves? (g) How is the minimum amplitude related to the amplitudes of the original two waves?
