Answer:

q = 3.87 x 10⁵ C

Explanation:

given,

Electric field, E = 8.60 x 10¹ = 86 N/C

radius of earth, R = 6371 Km = 6.371 x 10⁶ m

Coulomb constant, K = 9 x 10⁹ N · m²/C²

Charge on the earth = ?

the electric field at the point

E =\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

q =\dfrac{Er^2}{k}

inserting all the values

q =\dfrac{86\times (6.371\times 10^6)^2}{9\times 10^{9}}

      q = 3.87 x 10⁵ C

The electric charge on the earth is equal to 3.87 x 10⁵ C

The following chart provides the pH of some common foods. How many would be considered basic?
Yuri [45]

The ones with pH greater than 7

Explanation:

A pH scale is a scale for expressing the level of acidity or alkalinity of aqueous solutions.

This scale is called a pH or pOH scale. The pH is the common one.

pH of a solution is the negative logarithm to base 10 o the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution.

  • The scale ranges from 1 through 14.
  • An acidic solution has a pH value less than 7. Neutral solutions have pH of 7 and basic solutions have pH greater than 7.

Mrac [35]

Answer:

50 N/m

Explanation:

Elastic energy = kinetic energy

EE = KE

½ kx² = ½ mv²

½ k (4 m)² = ½ (8.0 kg) (10.0 m/s)²

k = 50 N/m
