Thay are on high towers because if it was below how would the water flow. Putting it on high towers gives you an advantage of the gravity with means you got free pressure without having to use a pump.

Two identical charges,2.0m apart,exert forces of magnitude 4.0 N on each other.What is the value of either charge?
storchak [24]

Answer:

\large \boxed{42\, \mu \text{C}}$

Explanation:

The formula for the force exerted between two charges is

F=k \dfrac{ q_1q_2}{r^2}

where k is the Coulomb constant.

The charges are identical, so we can write the formula as

F=k\dfrac{q^{2}}{r^2}

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{4.0 N}& = & 8.988 \times 10^{9}\text{ N$\cdot$m$^{2}$C$^{-2}$} \times \dfrac{q^{2}}{\text{(2.0 m)}^{2}}\\\\4.0 & = & 2.25 \times 10^{9}\text{ C$^{-2}$} \times q^{2}\\\\q^{2} & = & \dfrac{4.0}{2.25 \times 10^{9}\text{ C$^{-2}$}}\\\\& = & 1.78 \times 10^{-9} \text{ C}^{2}\\q & = & 4.2 \times 10^{-5} \text{ C}\\& = & 42\, \mu \text{C}\\\end{array}\\\text{Each charge has a value of $\large \boxed{\mathbf{42\, \mu }\textbf{C}}$}

How to calculate the slope of position time graph?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The slope of a position-time graph can be calculated as:

m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}

where

\Delta y is the increment in the y-variable

\Delta x is the increment in the x-variable

We can verify that the slope of this graph is actually equal to the velocity. In fact:

\Delta y corresponds to the change in position, so it is the displacement, \Delta s

\Delta x corresponds to the change in time \Delta t, so the time interval

Therefore the slope of the graph is equal to

m=\frac{\Delta s}{\Delta t}

which corresponds to the definition of velocity.

What happens when a continental plate splits apart
Tatiana [17]
When plates pull apart underwater, the hot magma instantly rises and spreads itself to form a new ocean floor.Under a continent, the crust splits open to allow magma out. The magma might make its way slowly to the surface, creating warm areas and hot springs or geysers as surface water meets it.<span>Or the magma might explode, bringing into existence a new volcano where there was only cool earth before.</span>
