What is the saturated zone

Physics
1 answer:
uranmaximum [27]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Saturated zone is area below the water table in which the soil is completely saturated with groundwater.

Explanation:

The saturated zone lies below the ground. It is mainly the lower zone of rock along with the water table where pore spaces are completely filled with water. Even the saturated zone is sometimes separated into 2 subzones: the phreatic zone and the capillary fringe.

The area where pores spaces are not saturated with water is also unsaturated zone. Localized saturated zones can occur within the unsaturated zone. The unsaturated zone lies above the groundwater table.

Calculate the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50 cm from the center of the cavity. Express y
WITCHER [35]

Question:

A point charge of -2.14uC  is located in the center of a spherical cavity of radius 6.55cm  inside an insulating spherical charged solid. The charge density in the solid is 7.35×10−4 C/m^3.

a) Calculate the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm  from the center of the cavity.  

Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity 3.65\times 10^5N/C

Explanation:

A point charge ,q = -2.14\times 10^{-6} C is located in the center of a spherical cavity of radius , r =6.55\times 10^{-2}  m inside an insulating spherical charged solid.  

The charge density in the solid , d = 7.35 \times 10^{-4}C/m^3.

Distance from the center of the cavity,R =9.5\times 10^{-2 }m

Volume of shell of charge= V  =(\frac{4\pi}{3})[ R^3 - r^3 ]

Charge on the shell ,Q = V \times d'

Q =(\frac{4\pi}{3})[ R^3 - r^3 ] \times d

Q = 4.1888*\times 10^{-4 }[8.57375 - 2.81011 ]\times 7.35\times 10^{-4}

Q = 4.1888\times 10^{-4} [5.76364 ] \times 7.35 \times 10^{-4}

Q =2.4143 \times 10^{-4} \times 7.35 \times 10^ { -4}

Q =1.7745 \times 10^{-6 }C

Electric field at 9.5\times 10^{-2}m due to shellE1  = \frac{k Q}{R^2}

E1 =  \frac{ 9 \times 10^9\times 1.7745\times 10^{-6 }}{ 90.25\times 10^{-4}}

E1 =1.769\times 10^6 N/C

Electric field at  9.5\times 10^{-2} due to 'q' at center E2 = \frac{kq}{R^2}

E2 =\frac{ - 9 \times 10^9\times 2.14\times 10^{-6 }}{ 90.25\times 10^{-4}}

E2 =2.134\times 10^6 N/C

The magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity

= E2- E1

=[  2.134  - 1.769 ]\times 10^6

= 3.65\times 10^5 N/C

Mangrove forests play an important role in _______.
AysviL [449]
D. All of the above

At high tide fish will feed among the mangrove roots - rich fishing ground

The trees trap sediment and soil in the river that would flow out to sea which also helps stop erosion

Wildlife utilise almost every part of the tree, with insects and birds, monkeys and lizards in the branches, shrimps and fish in the roots, and snails and clams in the soil

Jessica is running a 10K. She alternates between running and walking each kilometer. She runs at a rate of 1 kilometer every 5 m
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

c.100 minutes

Explanation:

Total distance = 10 km

Runs for 1 km every 5 minutes

walks 1 km every 15 min

She alternates between walking and running  so,  Jessica will walk 5 km and run 5 Km

Time taken by Jessica for walking : 5 km

Time taken to walk 1 km=5 minutes

Time taken to walk 5 km

=> 5 X 5

=>25 minutes

Time taken by Jessica for Running : 5km

Time taken to run 1 km = 15 minutes

 

=> 5 X 15

=>75 minutes

Total time taken   = Time taken by Jessica for walking + Time taken by Jessica for Running

=>25 minutes +75 minutes

=> 100 minutes
