The charge density of the sheet is 1.384×10⁻⁷C/m².

Charge density is defined as the charge per unit area.

The sheet is a square of length  l=17 cm.

Calculate the area A of the sheet .

A=l^2=(17 cm)^2= (17*10^-^2m)^2=0.0289 m^2

The charge Q on the sheet is

Q=4nC=4*10^-^9C

The charge density σ is given by,

\sigma=\frac{Q}{A}

Substitute 4×10⁻⁹C for Q and 0.0289 m² for A.

\sigma=\frac{Q}{A}\\ =\frac{4*10^-^9C}{0.0289 m^2} \\ =1.389*10^-^7C/m^2

Thus, the charge density of the sheet is <u>1.384×10⁻⁷C/m².</u>

A white dwarf is:______.
bija089 [108]

Answer:

the exposed core of a dead star, supported by electron degeneracy pressure.

Explanation:

A white dwarf is a low luminosity exposed core of a dead star having mass comparable to the sun but volume comparable to the earth . So its density is very high . These stars have lost the capacity to generate energy through the process of fusion . Due to high gravitational energy , it goes on shrinking but ultimately balanced by electron degeneracy pressure. It is not a main sequence star as it has lost the power of fusion .

When you are on a huge water slide what forces are there? when will you experience a net force?
Pani-rosa [81]
When you are on a huge water slide, the force present as you slide is the gravitational force. It is because the gravity enables you to slide down the water slide. The net force is the overall forces of the object, so as you slide the water slide, you may experience the net force once you slide down with the gravity and water sliding you down.
