Suppose that a parallel-plate capacitor has circular plates with
radius R = 28 mm and a plate separation of 5.5 mm. Suppose
also that a sinusoidal potential difference with a maximum value of
140 V and a frequency of 77 Hz is applied across the plates; that
is,
V = (140 V) sin[2π(77 Hz)t].
Find Bmax(R), the maximum value of the
induced magnetic field that occurs at r = R.

Many different ways have been proposed to make batteries. One cell is set up with copper and lead electrodes in contact with CuSO4(aq) and Pb(NO3)2 (aq), respectively. If the Pb2+ and Cu2+ concentrations are each 1.0 M, what is the overall cell potential?
Pb2+ + 2e- ---> Pb E = -0.22 V
Cu2+ + 2e- ----> Cu E = +0.34 V
answer: 0.56 V. how?

Some enzymes are inhibited by high concentratins of their own substrates. (a) show that when substrate inhibition is important the reaction rate v is given by
v= Vmax/ ( 1+km/[S}o + [S]o/K1
Where Ka is the equilibrium constant for dissociation of the inhibited enzyme substrate complex. (b) What effect does the substrate inhibition have on a plot of 1/v against 1/[S]o?

A room with 2.7-m-high ceilings has a metal plate on the floor with V = 0V and a separate metal plate on the ceiling. A 1.5 g glass ball charged to 5.0 nC is shot straight up at 4.7 m/s .
How high does the ball go if the ceiling voltage is 2.9×106 V ?
How high does the ball go if the ceiling voltage is −2.9×106 V ?

The following table gives the mean velocity of planets in their orbits versus their mean distance from the sun. Note that 1 AU (astronomical unit) is the mean distance from Earth to the sun, about 93 million miles.
| Planet | d = distance (AU) | v = velocity (km/sec) |
|---|---|---|
| Mercury | 0.39 | 47.4 |
| Venus | 0.72 | 35.0 |
| Earth | 1 | 29.8 |
| Mars | 1.52 | 24.1 |
| Jupiter | 5.20 | 13.1 |
| Saturn | 9.58 | 9.7 |
| Uranus | 19.20 | 6.8 |
| Neptune | 30.05 | 5.4 |
Astronomers tell us that it is reasonable to model these data with a power function.
(a)
Use power regression to express velocity as a power function of distance from the sun. (Round regression parameters to two decimal places.)
v = 29.73 × d0.50
v = 21.41 × d−0.50
v = 29.73 × d−0.73
v = 29.73 × d−0.50
v = 21.41 × d−0.29
(b)
Plot the data along with the regression equation.
(c)
An asteroid orbits at a mean distance of 3 AU from the sun. According to the power model you found in part (a), what is the mean orbital velocity of the asteroid? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
