Answer:

6.78 X 10³ N/C

Explanation:

Electric field near a charged infinite plate

=  surface charge density / 2ε₀

Field will be perpendicular to the surface of the plate for both the charge density and direction of field will be same so they will add up.

Field due to charge density of +95.0 nC/m2

E₁ = 95 x 10⁻⁹ / 2 ε₀

Field due to charge density of -25.0 nC/m2

E₂ = 25 x 10⁻⁹ /  2ε₀

Total field

E = E₁ + E₂

= 95 x 10⁻⁹ / 2 ε₀ + 25 x 10⁻⁹ /  2ε₀

= 6.78 X 10³ N/C

Cesium-137 undergoes beta decay and has a half-life of 30.0 years. How many beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of ces
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: 0.81\times 10^{16} beta particles

Explanation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass = 14.0 g

Molar mass = 137 g/mol

\text{Number of moles of cesium}=\frac{14.0g}{137g/mol}=0.102moles

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

1 mole of cesium contains atoms =  6.023\times 10^{23}

0.102 moles of cesium contains atoms =  \frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 0.102=0.614\times 10^{23}

The relation of atoms with time for radioactivbe decay is:

N_t=N_0\times \frac{1}{2}^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}

Where N_t =atoms left undecayed

N_0 = initial atoms

t = time taken for decay = 3 minutes

{t_{\frac{1}{2}}} = half life = 30.0 years = 1.577\times 10^7 minutes

The fraction that decays  :  1-(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{3}{1.577\times 10^7}}=1.32\times 10^{-7}

Amount of particles that decay is  = 0.614\times 10^{23}\times 1.32\times 10^{-7}=0.81\times 10^{16}

Thus 0.81\times 10^{16} beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of cesium-137 in three minutes.

The inner conductor of a coaxial cable has a radius of 0.800 mm, and the outer conductor’s inside radius is 3.00 mm. The space b
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The maximum potential difference is 186.02 x 10¹⁵ V

Explanation:

formula for calculating maximum potential difference

V = \frac{2K_e \lambda}{k}ln(\frac{b}{a})

where;

Ke is coulomb's constant = 8.99 x 10⁹ Nm²/c²

k is the dielectric constant = 2.3

b is the outer radius of the conductor = 3 mm

a is the inner radius of the conductor = 0.8 mm

λ is the linear charge density = 18 x 10⁶ V/m

Substitute in these values in the above equation;

V = \frac{2K_e \lambda}{k}ln(\frac{b}{a}) =  \frac{2*8.99*10^9*18*10^6 }{2.3}ln(\frac{3}{0.8}) =140.71 *10^{15} *1.322 \\\\V= 186.02 *10^{15} \ V

Therefore, the maximum potential difference this cable can withstand is 186.02 x 10¹⁵ V

If tides occur twice a day in most places. How much time is there between a morning high tide and the next high tide?
algol13

About 12 hours is the time between a morning high tide and the next high tide

Explanation:

The Earth’s rotation happens between two tidal bulges  

The “periodic rise and fall” of the surface water levels of the ocean is called tides. The gravitational action and interaction on the earth by the sun and the moon causes these tides. Different regions of the World experiences different patterns of tides like the diurnal, semi-diurnal etc.

When there is one high and one low tide occurring on a lunar day, then it is diurnal pattern. Semi-diurnal pattern occurs when there are two equal high and low tides on a single lunar day.

Since the Earth’s rotation happens between two tidal “bulges” on each lunar day, the coastal areas can experience two high and two low tides in every 24 hours plus 50 minutes.

Accordingly the time between two high tides would be 12 hours plus 25 minutes. Similarly, the time gap between a high to low tide would be 6 hours plus 12.5 minutes.
