A chrge is not ffected by the field it cretes. Only the field creted by the other plte cuses force on ech plte, nd the other plte cretes hlf the field. 69. INTERPRET We re to use the energy stored in cpcitor network t given voltge to find the cpcitnce of n unknown cpcitor in the network. We shll use the eqution for the energy stored in cpcitor, nd the rules for dding cpcitors in series nd in prllel. DEVELOP We first find the cpcitnce network of the entire network in terms of the given vlues nd the unknown cpcitnce. Next, we use Eqution., U networkv with U 5.8 mj nd V V nd work bckwrd through the network to solve for. EVALUATE () See the circuit digrm in the circuit below.

- hpter This trick of unrveling the network is often useful. We will use the sme trick in deling with resistor networks lter. Note lso tht three significnt figures were retined for the intermedite results, wheres only two significnt figures were retined for the finl result, s wrrnted by the dt. 7. INTERPRET We re considering the energy used by the Ntionl Ignition Fcility. DEVELOP The energy stored in cpcitor is given by U V (Eqution.). EVALUATE We re told tht the NIF cpcitor system stores 4 MJ t kv, so the cpcitnce is U ( ) 4 MJ F V ( kv) The nswer is (d). This is n impressively lrge cpcitnce. The dvntge of using cpcitors in this ppliction is tht they cn dischrge rpidly nd thus supply lrge mount of power over short time. 7. INTERPRET We re considering the energy used by the Ntionl Ignition Fcility. DEVELOP If the voltge is chnged, the cpcitor system still needs to store the sme energy, so the cpcitnce will chnge by fctor of / ( ) V / V. EVALUATE Doubling the voltge mens the cpcitnce could drop by ¼ nd still store the sme 4 MJ. The nswer is (). There s trdeoff between cpcitnce nd voltge. One cn think of the cpcitor system s the equivlent of spring storing mechnicl energy ( U kx ) The cpcitnce is like the spring constnt, k, nd. the voltge is like the displcement, x. The sme energy cn be stored with weker spring constnt if the spring is compressed or stretched further. 7. INTERPRET We re considering the energy used by the Ntionl Ignition Fcility. DEVELOP The power is energy divided by time. EVALUATE We re told tht the lsers deliver MJ of energy in ns. So the power is 6 Δ E J 5 P W PW 9 Δ t s The nswer is (d). This is over times the world s verge power consumption, but it only lsts for frction of second. 7. INTERPRET We re considering the energy used by the Ntionl Ignition Fcility. DEVELOP The energy stored in cpcitor is given by U V (Eqution.). EVALUATE One of the cpcitors t NIF stores U V μf kv 6 kj ( )( ) The nswer is (c). If there re of these cpcitors in prllel, they cn store 7 MJ. To rech 4 MJ with these type of cpcitors would require more thn 5 times this number. opyright 6 Person Eduction, Inc. All rights reserved.
