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

altitude of 260 m the field has magnitude 60.0 N/C. At an altitude of 150 m, the magnitude is 100 N/C. Find the net amount of charge contained in a cube 110 m on edge, with horizontal faces at altitudes of 150 and 260 m. Neglect the curvature of Earth.

Answer:

1.176604*10^{-10} C

Step-by-step explanation:

This is flux problem (see diagram below)

Since electric field is vertical to the top and bottom of the cube. total flux will be sum of flux up and down i-e

Фtotal=Фup + Фdown = Ф 260 + Ф150

But flux is given by scalar product of Electric field and area

Ф=E.A= EA cos∅

where ∅ is the angle between two vector quantities E the electric field and A the area vector. So, total flux is

Фtotal = =E_{260} .A+E_{150} .A

=E_{260} *A cos \alpha +E_{150} *A cos \beta

=E_{260} * Acos(180)+E_{150} * Acos(0)

=-E_{260} .A  +E_{150} .A

=A(E_{150} -E_{260} )

But we know that according to Gausse's Law total flux is given by;

Total flux = q / ∈

==> q= ∈(Total flux)

q = 8.84 *10^{-12} *110^{2} (260-150)

q=1.176604 *10^{-10} C

If one side of a cube is 15m in length,find its volume
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

V = 3375~m^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the volume of a cube is V = a^{3} where "a" would correspond to the length of an edge/side/height/etc.

If we insert our value into the formula, we get the following result:

V = a^{3}

V = 15m^{3}

V = 3375~m^{3}~(cubic~meters)

Hope it helped,

What is the length of JL?
frozen [14]

As We can see that point J is on (-2,5) and L is on (-2,-2)

So we know that distance cannot be in negative, thus

Distance between J and L =5+2=7 units

JL=7

Which equations have no real solution but have two complex solutions?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Since we cannot find the square root of a negative number (at least not using the real number system), we cannot evaluate the formula any further. There will be no solutions. Use the discriminant to determine whether the quadratic equation has two, one, or no solutions. The result is a negative number. i really hope this helps u. good luck my dude
