Answer:
The excess charge on earth's surface was calculated to be 4.56 × 10⁵ C
Explanation:
Using the formula for an electric field;
E = kQ/r²
k = 1/(4πε₀) = 8.99 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²
E = 100N/C
r = radius of the earth = 6400 km = 6400000m
Q = Er²/k = 100 × (6400000)²/(8.99 × 10⁹)
Q = 455617.4 C = 4.56 × 10⁵ C
Hope this helps!!!
A series circuit means that there is only one current. Which means that everything is sharing that one wire. Homes are normally wired with a parallel circuit, which means that there is more than one current running through the house. If you have a series, if you turn on one thing for example a light switch, than everything will turn on with it. But of you have a parallel you can turn on everything one by one, and save energy.
Trust me. I just took my semester test in physical science this morning, and I passed. This is exactly what we learned. <span />
A parachute is a device designed to generate a LOT of air resistance.
Parachutes do that very well in places where there's any air to work with.
There is no air on the Moon.
