6. The Earth’s electric field is directed vertically downward; at the ground level its strength is E = 130 N/C, and at an altitu

de of 100 m E = 70 N/C. Find the charge in a cube 100 m on edge located between the ground and a 100 m altitude.

Answer:

5.31x10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

The cube is located 100 m altitude from the ground, so the superior face is at 100m and has E = 70 N/C, and the inferior face is at the ground with E = 130 N/C.

The electric field is perpendicular to the bottom and the top of the cube, so the total flux is the flux at the superior face plus the flux at the inferior face:

Фtotal = Ф100m + Фground

Where Ф = E*A*cos(α). α is the angle between the area vector and the field (180° at the topo and 0° at the bottom):

Фtotal = E100*A*cos(180°) + Eground*A*cos(0°)

Фtotal = 70A*(-1) + 130*A*1

Фtotal = 60A

By Gauss' Law, the flux is:

Фtotal = q/ε, where q is the charge, and ε is the permittivity constant in vacuum = 8.854x10⁻¹² C²/N.m²

A = 100mx100m = 10000 m²

q = 60*10000*8.854x10⁻¹²

q = 5.31x10⁻⁶ C

The difference in interchain stability between the polysaccharides glycogen and cellulose is due to: Group of answer choices the
denis-greek [22]

Answer: both the different glycosidic linkages of the molecules and the different hydrogen bonding partners of the individual chains.

Explanation:

Glycogen is a polysaccharide of glucose which is a form of energy storage in fungi, bacteria and animals. Glycogen is primarily stored in the liver cells and skeletal muscle.

The difference in interchain stability between the polysaccharides glycogen and cellulose is due to the different glycosidic linkages of the molecules and the different hydrogen bonding partners of the individual chains.
