When 'The big bang' happened lots of large pieces of molten rock was flying around the solar system. As the rocks crashed together they got bigger and as the got bigger they attracted more rocks. Some scientists think that a large piece of molten rock hit the still developing Earth and created the Moon. This impact also caused the Earths angled spin. The Moon got trapped in Earth's orbit and has stayed ever since. Small astroids have hit the Moon causing craters. The Earth doesn't get hit as much because of our thicker atmosphere. Hope this helps!

Which process requires more energy: completely vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at 1 atm pressure or completely vaporiz
Lilit [14]
The correct answer would be the first option. The process that would need more energy would be vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at a pressure of 1 atmosphere. This can be seen from the latent heat of vaporization of each system. For the saturated water at 1 atm, the latent heat is equal to 40.7 kJ per mole while, at 8 atm, the latent heat is equal to 36.4 kJ per mole. The latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat needed in order to vaporize a specific amount of substance without any change in the temperature. As we can observe, more energy is needed by the liquid water at 1 atm.

A very long solid insulating cylinder has radius R = 0.1 m and uniform charge density rho0= 10-3 C/m3. Find the electric field a
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

E   = (0.56 \times 10^8 ) r   \   \ N/c

Explanation:

Given that:

\rho_o = (10^{-3} ) \ c/m^3

R = (0.1) m

To find  the electric field for r < R by using Gauss Law

{\oint}E^{\to}* da^{\to} = \dfrac{Q_{enclosed}}{\varepsilon_o} --- (1)

For r < R

Q_{enclosed}=(\rho) ( \pi r^2 ) l

E*(2 \pi rl)= \dfrac{\rho ( \pi r ^2 l)}{\varepsilon_o}

E= \dfrac{\rho ( r)}{2 \varepsilon_o}

where;

\varepsilon_o = 8.85 \times 10^{-12}

E= \dfrac{10^{-3} ( r)}{2 (8.85 \times 10^{-12})}

E= \dfrac{10^{-3} ( r)}{2 (8.85 \times 10^{-12})}

E   = (0.56 \times 10^8 ) r   \   \ N/c

A teacher walks 5m north of his desk, then we walks 6m south.
sergey [27]
11m if you add 6+5 you get 11 but of course you need the “m” in the mix so 11m but correct me if I’m wrong.
