Answer:

The expresion for the flux through the disk is:

Ф = E·πR^2·cos(Θ).

Explanation:

Let's sat the electric field has direction e and the normal to the disk has direction n (bold means vector quantities). So we have:

E=E·e (where E is the magnitud of the electric flied)

A=A·n

The flux for an uniform electric field and a flat surface is:

Ф=E×A

⇒ Ф = E·A·e×n = E·A·cos(angle(e,n)) = E·A·cos(Θ)

Since in this case the area is for a disk of radius R, A=\pi R^{2}

So, Ф = E·πR^2·cos(Θ)

Answer:

The electric flux through the disk are

  • E(πR²)sinϕ
  • E(πR²)cosθ

Explanation:

Electric Force is Calculated by:

Electric flux = E * A cosθ

where

E is the magnitude of the electric field

A represent area of the disk

and θ is the angle between the electric field lines and the normal (perpendicular) to A

Area, A = πR²

So, Electric flux = E(πR²) cosθ

Also, note that the cosine of an angle can be written as sine of its complementary angle.

Assuming θ + ϕ = 180

Then,  cosθ = sinϕ

So, Electric flux = E(πR²) cosθ can be written as

Electric flux = E(πR²) sinϕ

How many neutrons does element x have if it’s atomic number is 40 and it’s mass number is 82?
Black_prince [1.1K]
The atomic number gives you the number of protons element x has. Since the mass of protons and neutrons are almost similar(around 1 amu), the mass number can be thought of as the sum of protons and neutrons. so if element x whose atomic number is 40 has a mass number of 82, then we know that 42 of those must be neutrons.

Lady_Fox [76]
Do you remember this formula for the distance traveled while accelerated ?

<u>Distance = (initial speed) x (t)  plus  (1/2) x (acceleration) x (t²)</u>

I think this is exactly what we need for this problem.

initial speed = 20 m/s down
acceleration = 9.81 m/s² down
t = 3.0 seconds

Distance down = (20) x (3)  plus  (1/2) x (9.81) x (3)²

Distance = (60)  plus  (4.905) x (9)

Distance = (60)  plus  (44.145)  =  104.145 meters

Choice  <em>D)</em>  is the closest one.

Which describes how chemical changes are different from physical changes?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

B. Chemical changes involve the formation of a new substance.

Explanation:

They can both release energy, both can be measured, and chemical changes can be caused by oxygen, so I believe it would be B.
