L = illuminance
A = surface
i = intensity

L = i / A ==: i = L * A

i = 6 lux * 4 m^2 = 24 lumen

uniform electric field exists between two parallel plates separated by 2.0 cm. The intensity of the field is 15 kN/C. What is th
adoni [48]

Answer:

potential difference V= 300 volts

Explanation:

Given:

d= 2.0 cm = 0.02m

E = 15 kN/C = 15 × 10³ N/C

For a uniform field between two plates, the Electric Filed Intensity (E) is proportional to the potential difference (V) and inversely  proportional to distance between the plates.

E= V/d

⇒ V= E×d = 15 × 10³ N/C × 0.02 m = 300 volts  (∴1 Nm/C = 1 J/C= 1 volts)

What are hot clouds of gaseous elements and compounds that act as nurseries for stars
Aleks04 [339]
Interstellar gas clouds are common in many galaxy, like the Orion nebulae which many young stars are being born. A typical nebula is many light years in diameter and contains enough material mass to make several thousand stars the size of our sun. The majority of the gas in nebulae consist of molecules of hydrogen and helium-but most nebulae also contain atoms of other elements. All known element in our periodic table is also being made inside this crucible of this immense hot gas. The source of the organic molecules is still a mystery. Irregularities in the density of the gas causes a net gravitational force that pull the gas molecules close together.

Answer:

Circuit one will have more current than circuit two

Explanation:

I am assuming that you have to see which circuit has the greater current in this case. Well, this is the perfect example of Ohm's Law, which states the following -

V = IR,

where V = voltage / potential difference, I = current, and R = resistance

If one circuit has twice the voltage and half the resistance of the second circuit, as voltage is directly proportional to the resistance -

2V = I( 1 / 2R ),

4V = IR,

I = 4V / R

Whereas in the second circuit -

V = IR,

I = V / R

As you can note, voltage is directly proportional to the current ( I ) as well as the resistance. The only difference between the two formulas I = 4V / R, and I = V / R is the difference in the voltage. With the voltage being 4 times greater in the first circuit, and current is 4 times greater in the first circuit as well.

<u><em>Hence, circuit one will have more current than circuit two</em></u>

(a) calculate earth's mass given the acceleration due to gravity at the north pole is 9.830 m/s2 and the radius of the earth is
kakasveta [241]

(a) The value of the gravitational acceleration is given by:

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

where

G=6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

r=6371 km=6.371 \cdot 10^6 m is the Earth's radius at the pole

If we use the value for g given by the problem, g=9.830 m/s^2, and we rearrange the equation above, we find the value of the Earth's mass:

M=\frac{gr^2}{G}=\frac{(9.830 m/s^2)(6.371 \cdot 10^6 m)^2}{6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}}=5.982 \cdot 10^{24} kg

(b) The value we found for the Earth's mass is 5.982 \cdot 10^{24} kg, and we see that this value is slightly larger than the accepted value of 5.979 \cdot 10^{24} kg.
