Answer;

-Tsunami

Explanation;

-Tsunami is a series of large ocean waves (or "wave train") of extremely long wavelength and period, usually generated when a gigantic body of water, such as an ocean, is suddenly displaced on a massive scale by an underwater disturbance such as an earthquake occurring on or near the sea floor or a volcanic eruption.

-After a sudden displacement of a large water volume by seismic activity (earthquake), the ocean floor is raised or dropped and large tsunami waves can be formed by gravitational forces.

Answer:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is equal and opposite reaction.

While space walking, when the astronaut gets detached from the space ship, she floats in space holding a wrench. In order to get back to the spaceship, she should throw the wrench in the opposite direction of the spaceship. This action would cause a reaction on her own body and she would be pushed away from the wrench and towards the spaceship. Thus, she can return back to the spaceship in this way.

Answer:

x=0.53 $x10^{-3} m$

Explanation:

Using Gauss law the field is uniform so

E=ζ/ε

Charge densities ⇒ζ=1. $x10x^{-6} \frac{C}{m^{2}}$

ε=8.85 $x10^{-12} \frac{C^{2}}{n*m^{2}}$

$E=\frac{1x10^{-6}\frac{C}{m^{2}}}{8.85x^{-12}\frac{C^{2} }{N*m^{2}}} \\E=0.11299 x10^{-6} \frac{N}{C}$

Force of charge is

$F_{q}=q*E\\F_{q}=1.6x10^{-19}C*0.11299x10^{6}\frac{N}{C} \\F_{q}=1.807x10^{-14} N$

$F_{q}=m*a\\a=\frac{F_{q}}{m}=\frac{1.807x10^{-13}N}{1.67x10^{-27}}\\ a=1.082x0^{14} \frac{m}{s^{2}} \\t=\frac{x}{v}\\ x=2.1cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.021m \\v=6.7x10^{6}\frac{m}{s} \\ t=\frac{0.021m}{6.7x10^{6}\frac{m}{s}} \\t=3.13x10^{-9}s$

So finally knowing the acceleration and the time the distance can be find using equation of uniform motion

$x_{f}=x_{o}+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}\\ x_{o}=0\\x_{f}=\frac{1}{2} a*t^{2}=\frac{1}{2}*1.082x10^{14}\frac{m}{s^{2} } *(3.134x^{-9}s)^{2} \\x_{f}=0.53x^{-3}m$
