Chapter 24, Problem 81GP
A multilayer film capacitor has a maximum voltage rating of 100 V and a capacitance of 1.0 μF. It is made from alternating sheets of metal foil connected together, separated by films of polyester dielectric. The sheets are 12.0 mm by 14.0 mm and the total thickness of the capacitor is 6.0 mm (not counting the thickness of the insulator on the outside). The metal foil is actually a very thin layer of metal deposited directly on the dielectric, so most of the thickness of the capacitor is due to the dielectric. The dielectric strength of the polyester is about 30 × 106 V/m. Estimate the dielectric constant of the polyester material in the capacitor.

as a hiker in glacier national park, you need to keep the bears from getting at your food supply. You find a campground that is near an outcropping of ice. Part of the outcropping forms a feta=51.5* slopeup that leads to a verticle cliff. You decide that this is an idea place to hang your food supply out of bear reach. You put all of your food into a burlap sack, tie a rope to the sack, and then tie a bag full of rocks to the other end of the rope to act as an anchor. You currently have 18.5 kg of food left for the rest of your trip, so you put 18.5 kg of rocks in the anchor bag to balance it out. what happens when you lower the food bag over the edge and let go of the anchor bag? Determine the acceleration magnitude a of the two-bag system when you let go of the anchor bag?
