Because Florida has a lot of water. So with unsteady, muddy, bottoms dirt tends to shift. Florida's sea level is really, really, low, so that's why it has tons of water. A sink hole in Florida is The Devils Hole near Hawthorne, FL.

Consider the third period of the periodic table. Which element has the smallest atomic radius?
Anettt [7]
According to periodic trends in the periodic table, the atomic radius decreases from left to right. 

In period three, the element with the smallest atomic radius would be the element in the rightmost area. Protons increase as it goes to the right, which would mean they pull in electrons closer which decreases the size. 

So in period 3, the element with the smallest atomic radius is Argon (Ar).

1200 N-m of torque is used to drive a gear (A) of diameter 25 cm, which in turn drives another gear (B) of diameter 52 cm. What
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

2.5kN.m

Explanation:

Torque is directly proportional to pitch diameter

= Ta/Tb= Da/Db

=120/Tb= 0.25/0.5

Tb= 2.469kN.m approx 2.5kN.m

Consider a point charge qqq in three-dimensional space. Symmetry requires the electric field to point directly away from the cha
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

 E = \frac{1}{4\pi  \epsilon_o } \  r^2

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Gauss's law. The Gaussian surface that follows the symmetry of the charges is a sphere

           Ф = ∫ E. dA = \frac{x_{int} }{\epsilon_o}

the bold are vectors, the radii of the sphere and the electric field are parallel therefore the scalar product reduces to the algebraic product

           Ф = ∫ E dA = \frac{x_{int} }{\epsilon_o}

           E ∫ dA = \frac{x_{int} }{\epsilon_o}

           E A = \frac{x_{int} }{\epsilon_o}

the area of ​​a sphere is

            A = 4π r²

the charge inside the sphere is q = + q

           

we substitute

           E 4π r² = \frac{x }{\epsilon_o}

           E = \frac{1}{4\pi  \epsilon_o } \  r^2
