Rank the following five capacitors from largest to smallest according to the potential difference between the plates.
   (a) a 20-F capacitor with a 4-V potential difference between its plates
   (b) a 30-F capacitor with charges of magnitude 90 C on each plate
   (c) a capacitor with charges of magnitude 80 C on its plates, differing by 2 V in potential,
   (d) a 10-F capacitor storing energy 125 J
   (e) a capacitor storing energy 250 J with a 10-V potential difference


  1.e > a > b > d > c
  2.e > d > a > b > c
  3.c > b > a > d > e
  4.b > a = c > d = e

Question 2

Two charged objects attract one another with a force F. If the charge on both objects is doubled and the distance between them is also doubled, what will be the force between them?

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.

Though newer “smart” infusion pumps are increasingly becoming more sophisticated, they cannot prevent all programming and administration errors. Health care professionals that use smart infusion pumps must still practice the rights of medication administration and have other professionals double-check all high-risk infusions.
