An airplane is traveling at a speed of 200 m/s relative to the Earth. A person walks toward the front of the plane at a speed of 1 m/s. How fast is that person traveling in reference to the other people on the airplane? *

Two resistors r1 and r2 may be connected either in series or parallel across an ideal battery with emf ε. we desire the rate of energy dissipation of the parallel combination to be 8.75 times that of the series combination. if r1 = 105 ω, what are the (a) smaller and (b) larger of the two values of r2 that result in that dissipation rate?

Which of the following changes will increase the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor? (there could be more than one correct choice.) a) increase the charge on the plates b) decrease the poten5al between the plates c) increase the potential between the plates d) introduce a dielectric material between the plates e) decrease the separation between the plates

You charge a parallel-plate capacitor, remove it from the battery, and prevent the wires connected to the plates from touching each other. when you increase the plate separation, what happens to the following quantities?
