What is the strength of the electric field ep 0.90 mm from a proton?
dem82 [27]

The electric field strength is inversely related to the square of the distance.so  the strength of the electric field is given by

E=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _{0}  } \frac{q}{r^{2} } = \frac{k q}{r^{2} }

Here,  \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _{0}  } = k  is constant depend upon medium and its value is 9.0 \times10^{9} \ N m^2/C^2 and q is charge and  r is the distance.

Given  r = 0.90 mm = 9.0 \times 10^{-4} m and we know the charge of proton, q = 1.6\times 10^{-19} \ C.

Therefore,

E=\frac{9.0 \times10^{9} \ N m^2/C^2 \times1.6\times 10^{-19} \ C  }{(9.0 \times 10^{-4} m)^2} = 0.177 \times 10^{-2} \ N/C \\\\  E= 1.77 \times 10^{-3}  N/C

What will a spring scale read for the weight of a 75.0-kg woman in an elevator that moves upward with constant speed of 5.8 m/s
Sholpan [36]
<span>On the scale the only external forces are the man's weight acting downwards and the normal force which the scale exerts back to support his weight. So F = Ma = mg + Fs The normal force Fs (which is actually the reading on the scale) = Ma + Mg But a = 0 So Fs = Mg which is just his weight. Fs = 75 * 9.8 = 735N</span>

Hello!
34kurt
Iodine-131 has a half life of 8 days, so half of it is gone every 8 days.
10 grams of iodine-131 is left for 24 days.
At 8 days: 10/2=5 grams left
At 16 days: 5/2=2.5 grams left
At 24 days: 2.5/2=1.25 grams left.
**
Your mistake is that you stopped at 16 days.
