Answer: Sedimentary rocks

The principle of superposition is the basic principle of geology, which states that on examining the sequence of the strata, the stratum that is younger lies as the top whereas the older one rests at the bottom. This principle applies to the sedimentary rocks. As, the sediments are formed and piled one over the other, the compaction of the sediments occurs due to heat and pressure will result in formation of the sedimentary rocks.

The bodies of many cars are designed to compress or crumple during an accident. Why are cars built with a crumple zone?
Kryger [21]
By collapsing and crumpling, the force and energy is absorbed by the crumple zone and it is not transferred to the passengers inside. This is a safety feature for the passengers.

An uncharged, nonconducting, hollow sphere of radius 10.0cm surrounds a 10.0-μC charge located at the origin of a Cartesian coor
MrMuchimi

The electric flux through the hole is 56.45\ webber .

  • Electric flux is the number of electric field lines cutting through the surface and is measured as surface intregal of electric field over that surface
  • Mathematically it is given by \phi_E=E.A \ Nm^2/C where E is the electric field and A is the area.
  • Gauss's law states that electric flux through closed surface is equal to the 1 / ε₀ times the charge enclosed by that surface which is given by  Ф = q / ε₀ where q is the central charge and ε₀ is the permittivity of the medium.

It is given , hollow sphere of radius 10.0cm surrounds a 10.0-μC charge.

The whole surface of hollow sphere = 4\pi r^2

                                                            = 4\times 3.14\times  (10 \times  10^{-2})^2 \\\\= 12.56\times 10^{-2} m^2

Area of the hole ( both side ) = 2\times \pi  r^2

                                               = 2\times 3.14 \times  (10^-^3)^2\\= 6.28 \times 10^-^6 m^2

According to Gauss's theorem, the flow from a particular charge in the center is given by

 \phi=  \frac{10\times10^-^6}{8.85\times 10^-^1^2}\\\\\phi=1.13\times10^6

This flux flows through the surface of the sphere, so the flux  per unit area which is given by

= \frac{ 1.13\times 10^6 }{ 12.56\times 10^-^2} \\\\= 8.99 \times 10^6 \  weber / m^2

Flux through area of hole is given by :

=  8.99\times10^6 \times6.28 \times 10^-^6\\ = 56.45 \ weber

Some superconductors are capable of carrying a very large quantity of current. If the measured current is 1.00 ´ 105 A, how many
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The 6.25 \times 10^{23} electrons are moving through the superconductor per second.

Explanation:

Given :

Current I = 1 \times 10^{5} A

Charge of electron e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

Time t = 1 sec

From the formula of current,

Current is the number of charges flowing per unit time.

   I = \frac{ne}{t}

Where n = number of charges means in our case number of electrons

   n = \frac{It}{e}

   n = \frac{1 \times 10^{5} }{1.6 \times 10^{-19} }

   n = 6.25 \times 10^{23}

Therefore, 6.25 \times 10^{23} electrons are moving through the superconductor per second.
