Answer:

1.54481175\times 10^{-12}\ C

Explanation:

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

A = Area = 6\times 10^{-9}\ m^2

d = Thickness = 1.6\times 10^{-8}\ m

k = Dielectric constant = 5.4

V = Voltage = 86.2 mV

Charge is given by

Q=CV\\\Rightarrow Q=k\epsilon\dfrac{A}{d}V\\\Rightarrow Q=5.4\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times \dfrac{6\times 10^{-9}}{1.6\times 10^{-8}}\times 86.2\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow Q=1.54481175\times 10^{-12}\ C

The charge on the outer surface is 1.54481175\times 10^{-12}\ C

Which of the following examples illustrates static friction?
vivado [14]

Answer:

A box sits stationary  on a ramp

Explanation:

Static friction is a force which keeps an object at rest as it is in the case of the box. It has to be overcome for the object to be set into motion.

Static force of friction is calculated as follows:

F= μη

F is static force of friction.

μ is the coefficient of static friction.

η is the normal force.
