Answer:

the electric field at Z = 12 cm is E =   9.68 × 10³ N/C = 9.68 kN/C

Explanation:

Given: radius of disk, R = 2.0 cm = 2 × 10⁻² cm, surface charge density,σ = 6.3 μC/m² = 6.3 × 10⁻⁶ C/m², distance on central axis, z = 12 cm = 12 × 10⁻² cm.

The electric field, E at a point on the central axis of a charged disk is given by E = σ/ε₀(1 - \frac{z}{\sqrt{z^{2} + R^{2} }  })

Substituting the values into the equation, it becomes

E = σ/ε₀(1 - \frac{z}{\sqrt{z^{2} + R^{2} }  }) = 6.3 × 10⁻⁶/8.854 × 10⁻¹²(1 - \frac{0.12}{\sqrt{0.12^{2} + 0.02^{2} } }) = 7.12 × 10⁵(1 - \frac{0.12}{0.1216}) = 7.12 × 10⁵(1 - 0.9864) = 7.12 × 10⁵ × 0.0136 = 0.0968 × 10⁵ = 9.68 × 10³ N/C = 9.68 kN/C

Therefore, the electric field at Z = 12 cm is E =   9.68 × 10³ N/C = 9.68 kN/C

Why does air at 75% relative humidity and 30°C make your skinfeel stickier than air at 75% relative humidity and 10°C
ahrayia [7]

Here are the choices:

Warm air rises while cold air falls.

The warmer air contains less water vapor per unit of volume.

The warmer air contains more water vapor per unit of volume.

Moist air has lower density than dry air does.

The best answer is: <em>The warmer air contains more water vapor per unit of volume. </em>

nignag [31]

In the given case, the scientist should use a circle graph or pie chart.  

One can dissect a circle into smaller segments, a component of the circle is known as an arc and an arc is named on the basis of its angle. A pie chart, or a circle graph, is used to visualize data and information.  

A circle graph is generally used to demonstrate the outcomes of an examination in a proportional way. In a circle graph, the arcs are proportional to how many percents of the population gave a particular answer.

Why does Australia get more UV light than the other parts of the world?
Nataly [62]
During summer, the Earth's orbit brings Australia closer to the sun (as compared to Europe during its summer), resulting in an additional 7% solar UV intensity. Coupled with our clearer atmospheric conditions, this means that Australians are exposed to up to 15% more UV than Europeans.
