Points a and b lie in a region where the y-component of the electric field is Ey=α+β/y2. The constants in this expression have t

he values α = 600 N/C and β = 5.00 N⋅m2/C. Points a and b are on the y-axis. .
Point a is at y = 2.00 cm and point b is at y = 3.00 cm. What is the potential difference Va−Vb between these two points.?

Answer:

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined by

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E .ds

In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds

We substitute

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy

We integrate

          V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y

We evaluate between the lower limit A  2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m

           V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V

As they ask us the reverse case

             V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}

             V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

What is DNA and how do DNA tests work?
maria [59]
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms.DNA testing relies on comparing fragments of DNA (called “genetic loci” or simply “loci”) between an alleged parent and a child. A child receives one half of his DNA from the mother and the other one from the father moreover, the process is more or less random.

What types of natural phenomena could serve as time standards?
Delvig [45]

Answer: The rising and setting of the Sun.

The appearance and disappearance of the Moon.

Changes in season.

Appearance and disappearance of the Stars.

Explanation: The rising and setting of the Sun helps can be used as a standard to determine time since the rissing and setting of the Sun occurs at similar time and interval in a given geographical ocation.

The appearance and disappearance of the Moon which occurs during the night and early hours of the morning is similar in a given geographical locationation so it can be used as a standard for Time.

Change in season is another natural phenomenon which occurs at similar times in a given geographical location like Winter/summer, rainy/dry etc can be used as standards for time.

The appearance and disappearance of the Stars can also b used as standards for time in a given geographical location.

A Viking ship roller coaster at the fair has a mass of 36,000 kg. If at its peak it reaches a height of 20 m off the ground, how
adell [148]

Answer:

7056 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a ship roller coaster is 36,000 kg.

It reaches a height of 20 m off the ground

We need to find the gravitational potential energy does it have. The formula for the gravitational potential energy ios given by :

E = mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

E = 36,000 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 20 m

= 7056000 J

or

E = 7056 kJ

So, it will have 7056 kJ of gravitational potential energy.

You are given two rectangular blocks of shiny metal, Block A and Block B, and are asked to determine which one will float in a b
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of block A = 10 x 6 x 1 = 60 cm³

Mass of block A = 630 g

density of mass A = mass / density

= 630 / 60 = 10.5g / cm³

Volume of block B = 5 x 5 x 3 = 75 cm³

Mass of block A = 604 g

density of mass A = mass / density

= 604 / 75 = 8.05 g / cm³

Since density of both A and B are less than that of mercury , both will float in mercury.
