Aparallel-plate capacitor having circular plates of radius r and separation d is held at a fixed potential difference by a battery. if the plates are moved closer together while they are held at the same potential difference
a. the amount of charge on each of them will increase.
b. the amount of charge on each of them will decrease.
c. the amount of charge on each of them will stay the same.
d. the energy stored in the capacitor increases.

C= relative permittivity X permittivity of free space X a/d

Q= C/V (where Q is charge and V is voltage)

Since C increases so does the amount of charge on the plates. The stored energy also increases because E= 1/2 CV^2

A and D are correct.

Answer from: Quest

quantum mechanics or quantum physics is physics of very small objects (particles) and physical entities.

quantum physics has some parallels to our macro world and some pretty unique ideas which theoretically and mathematically proven to be true even though we will never be able to access them because of our size.

there are many types of particles: subatomic, elementary etc.

subatomic means they are smaller than atom, elementary means they are at the very basis of everything.

subatomic particles are for eg. protons, neutrons but not electrons.

elementary particles are categorised into 3 groups by what they do.

these 3 groups are quarks, leptons and bosons.

light for example is a particle more precisely a photon a part of leptons.

proton (subatomic particle) is made out of 2 up quarks and 1 down quark each of these has a fractional charge like $\frac{1}{3}$ . (i crazy)

most famous scientist who contributed to this physics are:

max planckalbert einsteinerwin schrödingermany

the topic itself us understand a lot and will probably be vastly used in the future (quantum computers, understanding the big bang,

we also must not forget quantum effects like:

superposition (where 1 thing can be this and that at the same time),entanglement (where two particles are seemingly connected by some sort of unknown (or known) force, energy, matter (i know all that can be the same at least it was at the beginning)

and there is more. but probably too much for this answer to be consistent due to my average understanding of this topic.

hope this you understand quantum mechanics a little more. i'm not an expert in the topic (so don't be like wth if you are an expert) but i'm very interested in it.

anyways quantum physics is a very hard topic (harder than physics (perhaps)) therefore searching for every information there is about it and learning it is unfortunately impossible (you can only specialise into 1 - 3 things or more (perhaps

have fun and i wish you luck!

16. a brave but inadequate rugby player is being pushed backward by an opposing player who is exerting a force of 800 n on him. the mass of the losing player plus equipment is 90.0 kg, and he is accelerating at 1.20m/s2 size 12{1 "." "20"" m/s" rsup { size 8{2} } } {} backward. (a) what is the force of friction between the losing player’s feet and the grass? (b) what force does the winning player exert on the ground to move forward if his mass plus equipment is 110 kg? (c) draw a sketch of the situation showing the system of interest used to solve each part. for this situation, draw a free-body diagram and write the net force equation.
