Answer:

A charge of -5.02 nC is uniformly distributed on a thin square sheet of nonconducting material of edge length 21.8 cm. "What is the surface charge density of the sheet"?

Explanation:

Surface charge density is a measure of how much electric charge is accumulated over a surface. It can be calculated as the charge per unit area.

We will convert all parameters in SI units.

Charge = Q = -5.02nC

Q  = -5.02×10^{-9}C

As it is clear from question that Sheet is a square (All sides will be of equal length)

Area = A = (21.8×10^{-2}m) (21.8×10^{-2}m)  = 4.75×10^{-4}m²

A  = 4.75×10^{-4}m²

Surface charge density = Q/A

Surface charge density = (-5.02×10^{-9}C)/(4.75×10^{-4}m²)

Surface charge density = -1.057×10^{-5} Cm^{-2}

What is the station's orbital speed? the radius of earth is 6.37×106m, its mass is 5.98×1024kg.
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

v_o=2503.08\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Orbital velocity is the speed that a body that orbits around another body must have, for its orbit to be stable. For orbits with small eccentricity and when one of the masses is almost negligible compared to the other mass, like in this case, the orbital speed is given by:

v_o=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

Where M is the greater mass around which this negligible body is orbiting, r is the radius of the greater mass and G is the universal gravitational constant. So:

v_o=\sqrt{\frac{6.674*10^{-11}\frac{m^3}{kg\cdot s^2}(5.98*10^{24}kg)}{6.37*10^6m}}\\v_o=2503.08\frac{m}{s}

Convert 68852 millijoules into Calories. (Write your answer in the decimal form. Do not include units in your answer).
alex41 [277]

Answer: 68852 millijoules = 16.46 calories

Explanation:

Given;

Convert 68852 millijoules to calories.

1 calorie = 4.184J = 4184millijoules

Therefore,

1 millijoule = 1/4184 calories

68852 millijoule = 68852 × 1/4184 calories

= 16.46 calories

What is the fate of solar radiation that reaches the earth?
expeople1 [14]
When solar radiation reaches the Earth it quickly dissipates as most of the radiation and UV rays are blocked by ozone layer, but more radiation and UV rays are able to get through because of global warming.
