    Deflection of Plates: Calculating Voltage and Displacement | SOLVED

    After doing solving the problem, I came up with 882V. I went over it every possible way I can think of.

    Deflection of Plates: Calculating Voltage and Displacement | SOLVED

    Another reason why I found the acceleration was because of what you stated above.

    Deflection of Plates: Calculating Voltage and Displacement | SOLVED

    I needed it to calculate the electric force and electric field. But when I finished solving the problem, I did not need the electric force or the electric field. I got the answer by finding the displacement and then finding the voltage applied to the plates based on the deflection angle.

    Deflection of Plates: Calculating Voltage and Displacement | SOLVED

    Ok this is what I have so far. (15000)(1.602 x 10^-19) = 2.4 x 10^-15 J KE = (1/2)(m)(v^2) = 2.4 x 10^-15 J v = sqrt(2 x (2.4 x 10^-15))/(9.11 x 10^-31) = 7.3 x 10^7 m/s x = 3 x 10^-2 m d = 0.0025 m, y = .0025 m x = vt t = (3 x 10^-2)/(7.3 x 10^7) = 4.1 x 10^-10 sec a =...

    Calculating Maximum Load Capacity of a Hydrogen-Filled Balloon

    Thanks for clearing that up. I just got to add the 196 kg. Weight of balloon = density of hydrogen * V * gravity + 196 then the buoyant force minus the weight of the balloon will give me the max load.

    Calculating Maximum Load Capacity of a Hydrogen-Filled Balloon

    Where will the mass of the balloon plastic etc.. tie in? if ... V = (4 pi / 3)(radius^3) = 7.24 * 10^3 m^3 Then... mass of displaced air = (7.24 * 10^3 m^3) * (1.25 kg/m^3) = 9.1 * 10^3 kg weight of displaced air = (9.1 * 10 ^3 kg) * (9.8 m/s^2) = 89180 N I am a little confused...

    Calculate the density of the material of which the sphere is made

    A hollow sphere of inner radius 8.0 cm and outer radius 9.0 cm floats half submerged in a liquid of specific gravity 0.80. Calculate the density of the material of which the sphere is made. Density of water = 1 * 10^3 kg/m^3 inner radius = 8.0 cm = 8 * 10 ^-2 m outer radius = 9.0 cm = 9 *...

    Calculating Maximum Load Capacity of a Hydrogen-Filled Balloon

    Thanks for the reply. Archimedes' principle states: When a body is completely or partially immeresed in a fluid, the fluid exerts an upward force on the body equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body. When a balloon floats in equilibrium in air, it's weight (including the gas...

    Calculating Maximum Load Capacity of a Hydrogen-Filled Balloon

    Help with a problem: A spherical, hydrogen-filled balloon has a radius of 12 m. The mass of the balloon plastic and support cables is 196 kg. What is the mass of the maximum load the balloon can carry? (Density of hydrogen = 0.09 kg/m^3; density of air = 1.25 kg/m^3) I do not know...
