A flat, wide cloud floats horizontally a few kilometers above the surface of Earth. Its lower surface carries a uniform surface

charge density of -2.6×10-4 C/m2 , while there is no excess charge elsewhere in the cloud. What is the magnitude of the electric field, in newtons per coulomb, a few meters below the cloud, under the cloud’s approximate center, due to the charge distribution?

Answer:

$\frac{kQ}{r^2} r^$

Explanation:

Electric field strength= Force/unit charge

E= (kQq/r²)/q ₓ r

where r is the unit vector in the direction of unit charge

E= $\frac{kQ}{r^2} r^$

David is driving a steady 26.0 m/s when he passes tina, who is sitting in her car at rest. tina begins to accelerate at a steady

nata0808 [166]

Relative speed of Tina with respect to David is given by

$v_r = v_t - v_d$

$v_r = 0 - 26$

$v_r = - 26 m/s$

now the acceleration of Tina with respect to David

$a_r = a_t - a_d$

$a_r = 2.80 - 0$

$a_r = 2.80 m/s^2$

now the relative displacement would be zero when Tina cross David

so now we have

$\deta x = 0 = v_r * t + \frac{1}{2} a_r t^2$

$0 = -26 * t + \frac{1}{2}*2.8*t^2$

$t = 18.6 s$

now the speed of Tina at this moment is given as

$v_f = v_i + a * t$

$v_f = 0 + 2.8 * 18.6$

$v_f = 52 m/s$

<em>so the speed will be 52 m/s</em>

The average Intensity of the electromagnetic field due to sunlight at the surface of the earth is 1400 W/m^2. Calculate the maxi

Ann [662]

Answer:

1027 N/C

3.42 x 10⁻⁶ T

Explanation:

I = Intensity of electromagnetic field = 1400 W/m²

E₀ = Maximum value of electric field

Intensity of electromagnetic field is given as

I = (0.5) ε₀ E₀² c

1400 = (0.5) (8.85 x 10⁻¹²) (3 x 10⁸) E₀²

E₀ = 1027 N/C

B₀ = maximum value of magnetic field

using the equation

E₀ = B₀ c

1027 = B₀ (3 x 10⁸)

B₀ = 3.42 x 10⁻⁶ T

How do i do this question？just number 5

larisa86 [58]

5 a)

Start by arranging the materials by the sonic speed and then their physical state:

$4600 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-1}$ - Copper (solid)
$4500 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-1}$ - Glass (solid)
$4000 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-1}$ - Wood (solid)

$1500 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-1}$ - Sea Water (liquid)
$1200 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-1}$ - Acetone (liquid)
$1100 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-1}$ - Alcohol (liquid)

$972 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-1}$ - Helium (gas)
$267 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-1}$ - Carbon dioxide (gas)

What trend do you identify from these data? Here's what I've got:

$\text{Sonic Speed}: \text{solid} > \text{liquid} > \text{gas}$

5 b)

The way microscopic particles are arranged in a substance helps distinguish between different physical states:

Particles in a solid are held tightly in place with small separation in between; it's hard for particles in a solid to move past one another; solids therefore have shapes that persists over time.
Particles in a gas are highly mobile- they keep moving AT ALL TIMES. There are large separations between individual particles and therefore gases tend to show no definite shape or volume.
The arrangement of particles in a liquid is located somewhere in between that of solids and gases. The exact configuration is dependent on the nature of the liquid- for example, molecules in maple syrup are held way closer to each other than those in distilled water are.

Sound travels as a longitudinal wave. As a sound wave passes through a medium, individual particles become excited and gain energy; as they run into others they transfer their energy to the next particle; the sound wave thus propagate across the medium. With a lower average distance between individual particles this action can proceed at a greater rate in average solids than in average liquids, and in average liquids than in average gases. Hence the trend.
