Skydiving: Friction, Velocity, and Parachutes
Evening everyone I wanted to see if my answer would be considered adequate for the question? If its not please suggest anything i could add to it, my answer is: The skydiver will accelerate as soon as they exit the aircraft, as this happens, the frictional force increases and the forces are...- skanecfc

Need to know if my answers are correct (electric field questions)
An alpha particle of 3.2 x 10^-19C (to the power -19) accelerates from rest between two oppositely charged plates starting from the +ve plate. The electric field between the plates is uniform and equal to 39000 N/C. The distance between the plates is 4.50 x 10^-3m (to the power -3). a)...- skanecfc

Explain the term permittivity and how this affects force
I put Coulomb's Law and the formula F=K (Q1Q2 over Resistance Squared) Where K is a constant and its formula The electric permittivity and its equation Absolute permittivity and lastly i put the reasons why dielectric materials are used in capacitors have i missed anything?- skanecfc

Explain the term permittivity and how this affects force
Hey everyone I just started an engineering course and have been given a few questions but I am struggling with this one as i feel that i have not included all the info that should be there. Can someone tell me briefly what they would explain the term permittivity as and how they think it would...- skanecfc
