In fair weather, the ground may become charged such that there is an electric field just above the surface of the Earth, pointin

g down toward the ground. What is the electric charge of the ground in this situation?

The electric field is defined as the electric force per unit of charge. The direction of the field is taken as the direction of the force it would exert on a positive test load. An electric field is always directed from its positive charge to the negative. Under this condition if the terrestrial electric field is pointing towards the ground, the terminal that is pointing is the negative and that of its surface is the positive. This implies that the sign of the charge of the electric field of the soil will be negative.

The Earth's Radius is 6.3710x106 m and mass is 5.9742x1024 kg. What is the acceleration due to gravity at Mount Everest (elevati
Shalnov [3]

Answer is

9.773m/s^2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given,

h=8848m

The value of sea level is 9.08m/s^2. So, Let g′ be the acceleration due to the gravity on Mount Everest.

g′=g(1 − 2h/h)

=9.8(1 - 6400000/17696)

=9.8(1 − 0.00276)

9.8×0.99724

=9.773m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on the top of Mount Everest is =9.773m/s^2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

hope this helps :)

Of the three primary forms of subaerial volcanoes, ________ are large cone-shaped mountains that consist of alternating layers o
Alborosie

Answer:

Strato-volcano

Explanation:

Strato-volcanoes are usually characterized by the presence of steep-sided slopes, with distinct craters, and are frequently erupted and conical in appearance. This type of volcano is generally felsic in nature. Due to the presence of high silica content, the magma being highly viscous, moves at a relatively slower rate. These are highly explosive and produce a large number of pyroclastic materials, lava flow, volcanic ashes, and gases.

They are also commonly considered as the composite volcano, and are comprised of alternating tephra and solidified lava layers.

A 2-kg bowling ball rolls at a speed of 10 m/s on the ground.
liberstina [14]
It's kinetic energy as the ball the ball isn't raised above the ground it does not have any gravitational potential energy. 
To find the kinetic energy of the ball you will have to use the formula:
KE=0.5 x m x v squared
m being mass and v being velocity 
so the calculation is:
0.5 x 2 x 10 x 10= 100J
