To solve this problem we will use two given concepts. The electric field in an atom and the electric field in the air. The first is a theoretical case whose value will be brought up while the second is given by the statement. We will divide the values and compare the proportion to obtain the respective conclusions. The electric field in an atom is

E = 5.75*10^{11}n/c

Dialectic strength of air is given as

E_d = 3*10^6 N/C

Hence the electric field in an atom cannot be less than the dialectic field strenth of air

Divide E and E_d, we have

\frac{E}{E_d} = \frac{5.75*10^{11}}{3*10^6}

E = (1.91*10^5)e_D

Thus the electric field of an atom is within and order of 10^5 the dialectic strength of air instead of factor 10^{10}

<em>Therefore the electric field in an atom is greater than the dialectic field strenth of air</em>

Help with this question plz and show how you got it :) tysm!
spayn [35]
The hardest part of the job is to find the right formula to use, and write it down. You've already done that ! The rest is just turning the crank until an answer falls out.

You wrote. E = m g h.
Beautiful.
Now divide each side by (g h), and you'll have the formula for mass:

m = E / (g h).

You know all the numbers on the right side. Just pluggum in, do the arithmetic, and you'll have the mass.

4. How does a molecule differ from an atom
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a molecule, atoms are bonded together by single, double, or triple bonds. An atom has a nucleus surrounded by electrons. ... So another difference between atoms and molecules is that when similar atoms combine together in varying numbers, molecules of different properties can be formed.
