A parallel-plate capacitor has plates of area 0.15 m2 and a separation of 1.00 cm. A battery charges the plates to a potential difference of 100 V and is then disconnected. A dielectric slab of thickness 4 mm and dielectric constant 4.8 is then placed symmetrically between the plates.

pF

(b) What is the capacitance with the slab in place?
pF

(c) What is the free charge q before the slab is inserted?
C

(d) What is the free charge q after the slab is inserted?

(e) What is the magnitude of the electric field in the space between the plates and dielectric?
V/m

(f) What is the magnitude of the electric field in the dielectric itself?
V/m

Consider N massless non-interacting spin-s fermions in a three-dimensional box of volume V .
(a) Find the Fermi energy EF as a function of N, V , and s.
(b) For zero temperature, find the pressure in terms of N, V , and EF .
(c) Plot the occupation of states as a function of the energy at a temperature of T =EF /(10k). Your graph can be a sketch by hand. However, the effect of the finite temperature should be indicated clearly.
(d) Suppose that you start with a gas of these particles in a box of volume V near T = 0.
Now suppose that a valve is opened such that the gas can undergo a free expansion, allowing it to come to equilibrium at a new volume that is twice as large as the initial volume. Assuming no work or heat transfer occurs during the expansion, does the temperature of the gas go up, down, or stay the same? Explain your reasoning.

1. A square-based pyramid has the volume V. If the vertical height is H (the normal distance from the square base to the point), write a MATLAB function that:

has V and H as input arguments

calculates the length of the side of the square (S)

has S as an output argument

Write MATLAB code that tests the function for the values:

V = 10 m3 and H = 2 m.

V = 2.586×106 m3 and H = 146.6 m (the original dimensions of the Great Pyramid of Giza).

2. Repeat SPIDER 2 Q1, but write a function that accepts a year as an input argument and determines whether that year is a leap year. The output should be the variable extra_day, which should be 1 if the year is a leap year and 0 otherwise.

You must write a script file that thoroughly tests whether your function works correctly.

The van der Waals equation for 1 mole of gas is given by (p +av-2)(v - b) = RT. In general, curves of p versus v forvarious values of T exhibit a maximum and a minimum at the twopoints where (δp/δv)T = 0. The maximum and minumum coalesceinto a single point on that curve where(δ2p/δv2)T = 0 inaddition to (δp/δv)T = 0. This point is calledthe "critical point" of the substance and its temperature,pressure, and molar volume are denoted by Tc,pc, and vc, respectively.
    (a) Express a and b in terms of Tcand vc.
    (b) Express pc in terms ofTc and vc.
    (c) Write the van der Waals equation in terms ofthe reduced dimensionless variables T' ≡ T/Tc , v'≡ v/vc , p' ≡ p/pc
This form should involve neither a nor b.

Demonstrate an understanding of an aspect of either Atkinson & Shifrin's model or Baddeley's model of memory. For instance, one stage of memory (Sensory, Short-Term/Working, or a type of Long-Term) can be defined and exemplified. Is there a factor that would impact the accuracy of encoding or retrieval for the memory chosen?   

After establishing how memory works for most of us, examine one of the links for people with either incredible or impaired memories. Discuss one way in which the memory of one of these differs from most people's memory. Include differences in automatic or effortful processing if applicable.

A faulty model rocket moves in the xy-plane (the positive y-direction is vertically upward). The rocket's acceleration has components ax(t)=?t2 and ay(t)=???t, where ? = 2.50 m/s4, ? = 9.00 m/s2, and ? = 1.40 m/s3. At t=0 the rocket is at the origin and has velocity v? 0=v0xi^+v0yj^ with v0x = 1.00 m/s and v0y = 7.00 m/s.

1. Calculate the velocity vector as a function of time.

2. Calculate the position vector as a function of time.
Express your answer in terms of v0x, v0y, ?, ?, and ?. Write the vector v? (t) in the form v(t)x, v(t)y, where the x and y components are separated by a comma.

What is the maximum height reached by the rocket?

What is the horizontal displacement of the rocket when it returns to y=0?
