The freshness of fish can be measured by placing a fish between the plates of a capacitor and measuring the capacitance. How does this work? (Hint: As time passes, the fish dries out. See Table )
As the fish dries out, the capacitance of the capacitor decreases due to less water.

Two parallel-plate capacitors, identical except that one has twice the plate separation of the other, are charged by the Same voltage source. Which capacitor has a stronger electric field Between the plates? Which capacitor has a greater charge? Which has greater energy density? Explain your reasoning.
Two copper wires with different diameter are joined end to end. If a current flow in the wire combination, what happens to electrons when they move from the large diameter wire into the smaller diameter wire? Does their drift speed increase, decrease, or stay the same? If the drift speed change, what is the role the force that causes the change? Explain your reasoning.
A 1.50- F capacitor is charging through a 12.0-鈩� resistor using a 10.0-V battery. What will be the current when the capacitor has acquiredof its maximum charge? Will it beof the maximum current?
Q) A straight, nonconducting plastic wire 8.50 cm long carries a charge density of +175 nC/m distributed uniformly along its length. It is lying on a horizontal tabletop. (a) Find the magnitude and direction of the electric field this wire produces at a point 6.00 cm directly above its midpoint. (b) If the wire is now bent into a circle lying flat on the table, find the magnitude and direction of the electric field it produces at a point 6.00 cm directly above its center.
A circular area with a radius oflies in the xy-plane. What is the magnitude of the magnetic flux through this circle due to a uniform magnetic fieldlocalid="1655727900569" (a) in the direction of +z direction; (b) at an angle offrom the direction; (c) in the direction?
