Answer:
2.16×10⁻⁶ N
Explanation:
Applying,
F = kqq'/r² (coulomb's Law)....................... Equation 1
Where F = electrostatic force, k = coulomb's constant, q = charge on the styrofoam, q' = charge on the grain of salt, r = distance between the charges.
From the question,
Given: q = 0.002 mC = 2.0×10⁻⁶ C, q' = 0.03 nC = 3.0×10⁻¹¹ C, r = 0.5 m
Constant: k = 8.99×10⁹ Nm²/C²
Substitute these values into equation 1
F = (2.0×10⁻⁶)(3.0×10⁻¹¹)(8.99×10⁹)/0.5²
F = 2.16×10⁻⁶ N
Waterfalls are created when a river flows following a descending rapid slope. The waterfall, then, flows from the source (where it starts) to the mouth (where it ends).
Waterfalls are created when the erosion of the rocks at the bottom of the slope is more powerful than the erosion of the rocks on the top.
After many years the water is able to erode the rocks on the top as well, and the waterfall slowly disappears.
Therefore the options that apply are:
b) waterfalls move towards their mouth;
c) the top or cap rock is resistant to erosion;
<span>f) waterfalls indicate a youthful river </span>
Answer:
0.0000076 grams
Explanation:
We're given the half life of Tritium to be 12.3 years. In order to find out the amount of substabce remaining:
Let's first find how many 'half lives' are in 250 years.
Now what is half life? It means the time taken for a given quantity of an element to lose half it's mass.
So in 12.3 years we can find that The amount of 250 g of Tritium will be 250/2 = 125 g. In 24.6 years we'll have 125/2 = 62.5 g
So now we can devise a formula:
Where m is the remaining amount and n is th number of half lives in the time given.
Using this formula we can calculate:
Doing this calculation we get:
As we can see a very small value remains.
