Elements that typically give up electrons

The earth has a net electric charge that causes a field at points near its surface equal to 150 N/C and directed in toward the c

maria [59]

To solve this problem we will start using the concepts related to the electric field, from there we will find the load exerted on the body. Through this load it will be possible to make a sum of forces in balance to find the load that a human supports. Finally with these values it will be possible to find the repulsive force. We will proceed as follows,

The electric field is

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

Here,

k = Coulomb's Constant

Q = Charge

R = Distance (At this case from the center of mass of the earth to the surface)

Rearranging to find the charge,

$Q = \frac{ER^2}{k}$

Replacing,

$Q = frac{(150)(6.38*10^6)}{8.99*10^9}$

$Q = 6.79*10^5 C$

Since the electric field is directed towards the center of earth, the charge is negative.

PART A) Once the load is found we can proceed to apply the balance of Forces, for which the electrostatic force must be equivalent to the weight, this in order to satisfy the balance, therefore

$F_w = F_e$

$mg = \frac{kQq}{R^2}$

Replacing,

$(62)(9.8) = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(q)(-6.79*10^5)}{(6.38*10^6)^2}$

Solving for q,

$q = -4.056C$

PART B) Finally using the given distance and the values of the found load we can find the repulsive Force, which is

$F =\frac{kq^2}{d^2}$

$F = \frac{(8.99*10^9)(-4.056)^2}{110^2}$

$F = 1.22*10^7N$

PART C) The answer is no. According to the information found, we can conclude that traveling through an electric field is not viable because there is a repulsive force of great magnitude acting on the body.

An atom has an atomic number 17 and atomic mass number 35. How many neutrons are present in its nucleus?

Anna [14]

The number of <span>neutrons that are present in its nucleus is 18. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "B". Mass number minus the atomic number gives the number of neutrons. I hope that this is the answer that has come to your help.</span>

The most common units for expressing the density of a substance are the g/cm3.

Luden [163]

True.

Density = mass / volume, Unit = g / cm³.

This is a common unit because of its affiliation with the SI unit and because that also our popular liquid which is water = 1 g/cm³
