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

Last year,Vicki rented 131 videos,and Chris rented 80 videos.Together they rented 173 more videos than the average couple rents
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: 38 Videos

Step-by-step explanation:

Add Vikki’s and Chris’s videos (131+80=211)

If they rented 173 more than the average couple you need to subtract Vikki’s and Chris’s amount from 173 (211-173=38)

That will give you the average videos other couples rent

Explain how finding 7x20 is similar to finding 7 x 2,000. Then find each product
Sphinxa [80]
7×20 and 7×2000 are similar. The amount of zeros are the dependent factor.

7×20= 140
7×2000= 14000

The base equation is 7×2=14
Any additions of zeroes in this formula will be added at the end result.

Ex.
7×2=14
7×20=140
7×200=1400
70×200=14000
700×200=140000
