Answer:

Wegener first thought of this idea by noticing that the different large landmasses of the Earth almost fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. The continental shelf of the Americas fits closely to Africa and Europe, and other continents showed the same trend. Wegner also analyzed both sides of the Atlantic Ocean for rock type, geological structures and fossils and noticed that there was a significant similarity between matching sides of the continents, especially in fossil plants.

An electric field of magnitude 2.35 V/m is oriented at an angle of 25.0° with respect to the positive z-direction. Determine the

zzz [600]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric flux is $3.53\ N-m^2/C$

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 2.35 V/m

Angle = 25.0°

Area $A= 1.65 m^2$

We need to calculate the flux

Using formula of the magnetic flux

$\phi=E\cdot A$

$\phi = EA\cos\theta$

Where,

A = area

E = electric field

Put the value into the formula

$\phi=2.35\times1.65\times\cos 25^{\circ}$

$\phi=2.35\times1.65\times0.91$

$\phi=3.53\ N-m^2/C$

Hence, The magnitude of the electric flux is $3.53\ N-m^2/C$
