Ask Your Teacher In the air over a particular region at an altitude of 500 m above the ground, the electric field is 120 N/C dir

ected downward. At 600 m above the ground, the electric field is 110 N/C downward. What is the average volume charge density in the layer of air between these two elevations?

Answer:

1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3

Explanation:

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

A = Area

h = Altitude = 600 m

Electric flux through the top would be

-110A (negative as the electric field is going into the volume)

At the bottom

120A

Total flux through the volume

\phi=120-110\\\Rightarrow \phi=10A

Electric flux is given by

\phi=\dfrac{q}{\epsilon_0}\\\Rightarrow q=\phi\epsilon_0\\\Rightarrow q=10A\epsilon_0

Charge per volume is given by

\rho=\dfrac{q}{v}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\dfrac{10A\epsilon_0}{Ah}\\\Rightarrow \rho=dfrac{10\epsilon_0}{h}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\dfrac{10\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{600}\\\Rightarrow \rho=1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3

The volume charge density is 1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3

Energy transformations when you cook sausages on a campfire burning wood
Rina8888 [55]

<span>Actually in this case heat energy is being transferred. Heat energy or thermal energy is transferred from the burning of wood to the sausages for it to be cooked. The sausage is being heated by the fire and is absorbing the heat or thermal energy.</span>
