Answer:

$\frac{161}{24}=6\frac{17}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3\frac{7}{8}+2\frac{5}{6}$

Convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions:

$\frac{31}{8}+\frac{17}{6}$

Find the common denominator and write equivalent fractions:

$(\frac{31}{8}\times{\frac{3}{3}})+(\frac{17}{6}\times{\frac{4}{4}})$

$\frac{93}{24}+\frac{68}{24}$

Add:

$\frac{93}{24}+\frac{68}{24}=\frac{161}{24}$

Reduce to mixed fraction:

$\frac{161}{24}=6\frac{17}{24}$

Answer: 6 and 17/24

Step-by-step explanation: To add mixed numbers, first add the fractions. Since 7/8 and 5/6 are unlike fractions, we need a common denominator which in this case is 24.

If we multiply 7/8 by 3 in both the numerator and denominator, we get the equivalent fraction 21/24.

If we multiply 5/6 by 4 in both the numerator and denominator, we get the equivalent fraction 20/24.

Now we can add 21/24 + 20/24 to get 41/24. Finally, we add the whole numbers which is 3 + 7 to get 10.

Since 41/24 is an improper fraction, we can change it into the mixed number which is 6 and 17/24.

lina2011 [118]
The surface charge density:
S(igma) = Q / A
A = 1.6 * 10^(-2) * 1.6 * 10^(-2) = 2.56 * 10^(-4) m²
The electric field:  E = S / E(psilon) o 
E = 0.711 * 10^^(-9) / ( 2.56 * 10 ^(-4) * 8.85 * 10 ^(-12) ) = 
= 0.3138 * 10 ^6 = 3.138 * 10^5 V/m
a ) Δ V = E d
Δ V = 3.138 * 10^5 V/m* 1.2 * 10^(-3) m = 376.56 V
b ) When d = 2.40 mm:
Δ V = 3.138 * 10^5 V/m * 2.40 *10^(-3) m = 753.12 V
