Which statement best reflects a change in climate? It's very windy today and will rain later. Droughts in California have become

more common over the past few decades. There is a hurricane forming off the coast of Florida. Tropical climates are likely to be wet and warm.

Answer:

Droughts in California have become more common over the past few decades

Explanation:

Normally people get confused between three terms: weather, season and climate and use them in a wrong manner.

Weather: It is an environment condition for a short period of time over a small area.

Season: A weather pattern common for one hemisphere of the Earth for a period of 3 months.

Climate: Weather pattern for a very long time (more than decades).

Using this you can easily see that only statement 2 reflects the change in climate. Other statements only shows the temporary weather phenomenon.

Calculate the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50 cm from the center of the cavity. Express y

WITCHER [35]

Question:

A point charge of -2.14uC is located in the center of a spherical cavity of radius 6.55cm inside an insulating spherical charged solid. The charge density in the solid is 7.35×10−4 C/m^3.

a) Calculate the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity.

Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity $3.65\times 10^5N/C$

Explanation:

A point charge ,q = $-2.14\times 10^{-6} C$ is located in the center of a spherical cavity of radius , $r =6.55\times 10^{-2}$ m inside an insulating spherical charged solid.

The charge density in the solid , d = $7.35 \times 10^{-4}C/m^3.$

Distance from the center of the cavity,R = $9.5\times 10^{-2 }m$

Volume of shell of charge= V = $(\frac{4\pi}{3})[ R^3 - r^3 ]$

Charge on the shell ,Q = $V \times d'$

$Q =(\frac{4\pi}{3})[ R^3 - r^3 ] \times d$

$Q = 4.1888*\times 10^{-4 }[8.57375 - 2.81011 ]\times 7.35\times 10^{-4}$

$Q = 4.1888\times 10^{-4} [5.76364 ] \times 7.35 \times 10^{-4}$

$Q =2.4143 \times 10^{-4} \times 7.35 \times 10^ { -4}$

$Q =1.7745 \times 10^{-6 }C$

Electric field at $9.5\times 10^{-2}$ m due to shell $E1 = \frac{k Q}{R^2}$

E1 = $\frac{ 9 \times 10^9\times 1.7745\times 10^{-6 }}{ 90.25\times 10^{-4}}$

$E1 =1.769\times 10^6 N/C$

Electric field at $9.5\times 10^{-2}$ due to 'q' at center $E2 = \frac{kq}{R^2}$

E2 = $\frac{ - 9 \times 10^9\times 2.14\times 10^{-6 }}{ 90.25\times 10^{-4}}$

$E2 =2.134\times 10^6 N/C$

The magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity

= E2- E1

$=[ 2.134 - 1.769 ]\times 10^6$

$= 3.65\times 10^5 N/C$

A 0.45kg baseball is pitched towards home plate at 20 m/s. The ball is hit back towards the pitcher with a speed of 30 m/s. What

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

4.5kgm/s

Explanation:

Change in momentum is expressed as

Change in momentum = m(v-u)

M is the mass

V is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

Given

m=0.45kg

v = 30m/s

u = 20m/s

Substitute

Change in momentum = 0.45(30-20)

Change in momentum = 0.45×10

Change in momentum = 4.5kgm/s

A softball is thrown from the origin of an X-Y coordinate system with an initial speed of 18 m/s at an angle of 35 degrees above

Goshia [24]

Vo = 18 m/s
angle 35 degrees

1) Components of the initial velocity

Vox = Vo*cos(35) = 18*cos(35) m/s = 14.74 m/s
Voy = Vo* sin(35) = 18*sin(35) m/s = 10.32 m/s

2) Equations of postion:

x = Vox*t
y = Voy*t - gt^2 / 2

3) Calculations

A) t = 0.5 s, t = 1.0 st = 1.5 s, t = 2.0 s

x = 14.74 * t

t = 0.5 s => x = 14.74 m/s * 0.5s = 7.37 m

t = 1.0 s => x = 14.74 m/s * 1.0s = 14.74 m

t = 1.5s => x = 22.11 m

t = 2s => x = 29.48 m

B)

y = Voy*t - gt^2 / 2

Voy = 10.32 m/s
g = 10 m/s (approximation)

y = 10.32*t - 5t^2

t = 0.5 s=> y = 3.91m

t = 1 s => y = 5.32m

t = 1.5 s => y = 4.23m

t = 2 s => y = 0.64 m
