A voltage has been applied across a capacitor. If the dielectric is replaced with another dielectric constant eight times as great and the voltage is reduced to half of what it was, the ENERGY STORED in the capacitor is how many times the original stored energy?

8. why do radio telescopes convert radio waves (analog signals) to electrical (digital) signals for analysis? (hint: what did the article say about the advantages of digital signals? )

Determine the age of a fossil if it had only one eighth of its original carbon-14 content remaining?

Consider a 1000 w iron whose base plate is made of 0.5 cm thick aluminum alloy 2024-t6 (ρ = 2770 kg/m3 and cp = 875 j/kg°c). the base plate has a surface area of 0.03 m2. initially, the iron is in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air at 22°c. assuming 90% of the heat generated in the resistance wires is transferred to the plate, determine the minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 200°c.
