The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface,pointing down, that averages 102 N/C. This field is maintained by various

Schach [20]

Answer:

$q = -461532.5 \ C$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The electric filed is $E = 102 \ N/C$

Generally according to Gauss law

=> $E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }$

Given that the electric field is pointing downward , the equation become

$- E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }$

Here $q$ is the excess charge on the surface of the earth

$A$ is the surface area of the of the earth which is mathematically represented as

$A = 4\pi r^2$

Where r is the radius of the earth which has a value $r = 6.3781*10^6 m$

substituting values

$A = 4 * 3.142 * (6.3781*10^6 \ m)^2$

$A =5.1128 *10^{14} \ m^2$

So

$q = -E * A * \epsilon _o$

Here $\epsilon_o$ s the permitivity of free space with value

$\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} \ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2$

substituting values

$q = -102 * 5.1128 *10^{14} * 8.85 *10^{-12}$

$q = -461532.5 \ C$

A nurse pushes a cart by exerting a force on the handle at a downward angle of 36 degrees below the horizontal. the loaded cart

Troyanec [42]

Since it was stated that it must move at constant velocity, so the only force it must overpower is the frictional force.

So the equation is:

F cos θ = Ff

F cos 36 = 65 N

F = 80.34 N

<span>So the nurse must exert 80.34 N of force</span>

A worker does 25 J of work lifting a bucket, then sets the bucket back down in the same place. What is the total net work done o

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

As work is force times displacement, if no displacement occurs, no work occurs.

The electric flux through a square-shaped area of side 5 cm near a very large, thin, uniformly-charged sheet is found to be 3\ti

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

side of square shape $a=5\ cm$

Electric flux $\phi =3\times 10^{-5}\ N.m^2/C$

Permittivity of free space $\epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12} \frac{C^2}{N.m^2}$

Flux is given by

$\phi =EA\cos \theta$

where E=electric field strength

A=area

$\theta$ =Angle between Electric field and area vector

$E=\frac{\phi }{A\cos (0)}$

$E=\frac{3\times 10^{-5}}{25\times 10^{-4}\times \cos(0)}$

$E=0.012\ N/C$

and Electric field by a uniformly charged sheet is given by

$E=\frac{\sigma }{2\epsilon_0}$

where $\sigma$ =charge density

$=\frac{\sigma }{\epsilon_0}$

$\sigma =0.012\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}$

$\sigma =2.12\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^2$
