It is found experimentally that the electric field in a certain region of Earth's atmosphere is directed vertically down. At an

altitude of 300 m the field has magnitude 60.0 N/C; at an altitude of 230 m, the magnitude is 100 N/C. Find the amount of charge contained in a cube 70 m on edge, with horizontal faces at altitudes of 230 and 300 m. Neglect the curvature of Earth.

Answer:

q=1.7346×10⁻⁶C

Explanation:

Since the electric field is perpendicular to the bottom and top of the cube,the total flux is equals the flux over the top of surface plus the flex over the lower surface

Ф(total)=Ф₃₀₀+Ф₂₃₀

But the flux is given by  Ф=E.A=EACos(θ) where θ is the angle between Area vector and electric field

So

Ф(total)=E₃₀₀A Cos(180)+E₂₃₀ACos(0)

Ф(total)=A(E₃₀₀ - E₂₃₀)

The total flux is given by Gauss Law as:

Ф(total)=q/ε₀

q=ε₀Ф(total)

q=ε₀(A(E₃₀₀ - E₂₃₀))

Substitute the given values

q=(8.85×10⁻¹²){(70²)(100 - 60)}

q=1.7346×10⁻⁶C

Suppose you were digging a well into saturated sediments. Why is the sediment’s permeability an important factor in deciding whe
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The importance of the sediments permeability is that if it is permeable, water will flow easily through the sediment and thereby produce a very good supply of water for the well.

Explanation:

When digging a well into saturated sediments, the possibility of the sediment with either little saturation or full saturation being able to provide steady water supply will be limited by how permeable it is. Now, the importance of the sediments permeability is that if it is permeable, water will flow easily through the sediment and thereby produce a very good supply of water for the well.

what is required to bring about a phase change 1.an increase or decrease in pressure 2.an increase or decrease in energy 3.an in
frozen [14]

Answer

Correct answers are 1.an increase or decrease in pressure 2.an increase or decrease in energy

Explanation

All existing matter can undergo phase change it means they may transform from one state to another. phase change of a matter  may occur due to change in energy and change in pressures.

for example there is an ice cube which is a solid and if  we want to change it phase into liquid water for that purpose we have to supply some energy to ice cube it means we have to give some heat to ice cube. After supplying heat energy to the ice it will turn into water it means there is phase change from solid to liquid due to supplying the heat. Similarly we can change the liquid water into solid ice cube by taking heat energy(reducing temperature) from the liquid water  .

In some cases the matter doesn't want to undergo phase transformation. For example, oxygen will solidify at -361.8 degrees Fahrenheit at standard pressure.But , it can change to solid state at warmer temperatures when the pressure is increased.

5) In the last part of step 7 of the procedure, you measured the resistance of the flashlight when it had no current passing thr
Andreyy89

Answer:

Following are the responses to this question:

Explanation:

The small current passes thru the capacitor of the strain gauge and the current is generated throughout the resistor. For the very first time,  in contrast to what we calculate, its resistance of the multimeter is quite high and therefore the small stream flowing through the bulb would have very little impact on the measure. Thus, as the current flows through the flashbulb, this same calculation is of excellent price, its material is heated and resistance varies with increase. Therefore, when the bulb will be on, sensitivity is greater.
