(a)  The charge (sign and magnitude) of a particle of mass 1.43 g be for it to remain stationary is  2.12 x 10⁻⁵ C.

(b)The magnitude of an electric field in which the electric force on a proton is equal in magnitude to its weight is 10.24 x 10⁻⁸ N/C.

<h3>What is electric field?</h3>

The field developed when a charge is moved. In this field, a charge experiences an electrostatic force of attraction or repulsion depending on the nature of charge.

Given is a particle of mass 1.43 g be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward-directed electric field of magnitude 660 N/C.

The electric field and force is related as

F = qE

mg = qE

Substitute the given values in the question, we have

1.43 x 10⁻³ x 9.81 = q x 660

q = 2.12 x 10⁻⁵ C

Thus, the charge of particle is 2.12 x 10⁻⁵ C.

(b)
Given is the electric force on a proton is equal in magnitude to its weight.

Force on proton = mass of proton x acceleration due to gravity

F = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg x 9.81

F = 16.38 x 10⁻²⁷  N

Charge on proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

E = F/q

E = 16.38 x 10⁻²⁷  /   1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

E = 10.24 x 10⁻⁸ N/C

Thus, the magnitude of electric field is  10.24 x 10⁻⁸ N/C.

What electric force would a stationary 3.8 C charge experience if it were far away from any other charges
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The electric force will be  0 N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The magnitude of the charge is  q_1 = 3.8 \ C

   

Generally from Coulombs law the electric force  between two charges is mathematically represented as

         F = \frac{ k  *  q_1 q_2 }{r^2}

Here r is the distance of separation between that two charges.

  Now from the question we are told that the charge is far away from any other charge hence we can say that the distance between the charge and any other charge is  r = \infty

So

       F = \frac{ k  *  3.8  * q_2 }{\infty^2}

=>    F =0 \ N

Hence the electric force will be  0 N

The process of how rocks can tell us how old the earth is
Ludmilka [50]
The Earth is a constantly changing planet. Its crust is continually being created, modified, and destroyed. As a result, rocks that record its earliest history have not been found and probably no longer exist. Nevertheless, there is substantial evidence that the Earth and the other bodies of the Solar System are 4.5-4.6 billion years old, and that the Milky Way Galaxy and the Universe are older still. The principal evidence for the antiquity of Earth and its cosmic surroundings is:The oldest rocks on Earth, found in western Greenland, have been dated by four independent radiometric dating methods at 3.7-3.8 billion years. Rocks 3.4-3.6 billion years in age have been found in southern Africa, western Australia, and the Great Lakes region of North America. These oldest rocks are metamorphic rocks but they originated as lava flows and sedimentary rocks. The debris from which the sedimentary rocks formed must have come from even older crustal rocks. The oldest dated minerals (4.0-4.2 billion years) are tiny zircon crystals found in sedimentary rocks in western Australia.
The oldest Moon rocks are from the lunar highlands and were formed when the early lunar crust was partially or entirely molten. These rocks, of which only a few were returned by the Apollo missions, have been dated by two methods at between 4.4-4.5 billion years in age. 
The majority of the 70 well-dated meteorites have ages of 4.4-4.6 billion years. These meteorites, which are fragments of asteroids and represent some of the most primitive material in the solar system, have been dated by 5 independent radiometric dating methods. 
The "best" age for the Earth is based on the time required for the lead isotopes in four very old lead ores (galena) to have evolved from the composition of lead at the time the Solar System formed, as recorded in the Canyon Diablo iron meteorite. This "model lead age" is 4.54 billion years. 
The evidence for the antiquity of the Earth and Solar System is consistent with evidence for an even greater age for the Universe and Milky Way Galaxy. a) The age of the Universe can be estimated from the velocity and distance of galaxies as the universe expands. The estimates range from 7 to 20 billion years, depending on whether the expansion is constant or is slowing due to gravitational attraction. b) The age of the Galaxy is estimated to be 14-18 billion years from the rate of evolution of stars in globular clusters, which are thought to be the oldest stars in the Galaxy. The age of the elements in the Galaxy, based on the production ratios of osmium isotopes in supernovae and the change in that ratio over time due to radioactive decay, is 8.6-15.7 billion years. Theoretical considerations indicate that the Galaxy formed within a billion years of the beginning of the Universe. c) Combining the data from a) and b), the "best, i.e., most consistent, age of the universe is estimated to be around 14 billion years.

Describe 1 way to reduce the shortage of food for a growing human population.
alexira [117]

The answer is; producing genetically modified organism


GMOs have been shown to produce varieties of organisms that have increased yields and  are resistant to the upsets of climate change and diseases. GMOs are made by introducing genes into an organism that will confer particular desired traits such as disease and drought resistance.

How much power does it take to lift a 30.0 n box 10.0 m high in 5.00 s, if you must apply a 62n force to lift the box?
Illusion [34]
Power is defined as the rate at which the body is doing work:
P=\frac{W}{t}
Work is defined as displacement done by the force times that displacement:
W=F\cdot h
We know that we need 62N to move the box, so when we apply this force along the path of 10m we have done:
W=62N\cdot10m=620J
of work.
Now we just divide that by 5s to get how much power is required:
P=\frac{620J}{5s}=124W
