6) Set the battery to a value between 0.0 V and 1.5 V. Now drag the voltage meter toward the capacitor and move the red and black leads to measure the voltage. Determine the potential difference between the two plates and whether the top plate is at higher or lower voltage than the bottom plate.

A) 1.5 v

B) Top plate is at higher voltage than the bottom plate

Explanation:

Battery value set between 0.0 V and 1.5 V

a) The potential difference between the plates

Δ V = V1( potential at top plate) - V2( potential at lower plate )

potential at top plate = 1.5 V

potential at lower plate = 0.0 V

hence potential difference = 1.5 V

b ) The top plate is always connected to the positive terminal of the DC source ( which is at a higher potential )while the bottom plate is connected to the negative terminal of the DC source ( which is at a lower potential )

hence the Top plate is at higher voltage than the bottom plate

in simple terms, the principle states that the buoyancy force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object, or the density of the fluid multiplied by the submerged volume times the gravitational acceleration, g. this is also known as upthrust.

see the picture for the vector

the magnitude of the vector by pythagorean theorem

r = √( (-10)^2 + (3)^2 ) = √109

magnitude = √109 units

the direction angle between vector and x-axis is

tan^(-1)(3/10) = 16.699

so the direction is approximately 16.7 degrees north of west
