You understand the concepts all perfectly fine, just have applied them slightly incorrectly.
Firstly, the speed time graph is actually a triangle since the question says a steady acceleration from rest - i.e. it started at 0 and worked up to 2ms-1 in the space of that 10 seconds. The area under the graph is the distance, and a triangle area is found with bh/2, and in this case that is 10*2/2 = 10m - so the boat travelled 10 metres.

Work done as you correctly stated is fd - giving the part against water resistance as 3*10 = 30J
However, you forgot to do the last part - the key words are rate of work - this means Power. Power is Energy/Time, and this whole process occurred over 10 seconds. So whilst 30J of energy were expended due to the water resistance, this didn't all occur in no time. So we need to divide that by 10 to get the power. And 30/10 is 3J/s - and J/s is the same as W.

If an atom has 13 protons and is currently electrically neutral, what must happen to give the same atom a positive charge of +2e
Alex777 [14]

The atom must lose 2 electrons

Explanation:

An atom consists of three types of particles:

- Protons, in the nucleus, with positive electric charge +e

- Neutrons, in the nucleus, with no electric charge

- Electrons, orbiting around the nucleus, with negative electric charge -e

As a result, the net electric charge of an atom is given by the number of protons minus the number of electrons:

Q = #p - #e

For a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons is the same, so the net charge is zero.

In order for an atom to have a positive charge of +2, it means that there must be 2 protons more than the number of electrons. Since atoms exchange electrons (and not protons), this means that the atom must have "lost" 2 electrons.

In this problem, we have an atom with 13 protons: this means that initially it also has 13 electrons. However, later the atom lost 2 electrons, and as a result, the final charge is +2e.

The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface,pointing down, that averages 102 N/C. This field is maintained by various
Schach [20]

Answer:

q  =  -461532.5 \ C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  electric filed is  E  =  102 \ N/C  

Generally according to Gauss law

=>   E  A  =  \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }

Given that  the electric field is pointing downward  , the equation become

    - E  A  =  \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }

Here   q is the excess charge on the surface of the earth

          A is the surface  area of the of the earth which is mathematically represented as

     A  =  4\pi r^2

Where r is the radius of the earth which has a value r = 6.3781*10^6 m

 substituting values

    A  = 4 * 3.142  *   (6.3781*10^6 \ m)^2

    A  =5.1128 *10^{14} \ m^2

So

   q  =  -E  * A  *  \epsilon _o

Here \epsilon_o s the permitivity of free space with value

          \epsilon_o  =  8.85*10^{-12} \  m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot  s^4 \cdot A^2

substituting values

     q  =  -102  * 5.1128 *10^{14}  *  8.85 *10^{-12}

     q  =  -461532.5 \ C

Find a parametric representation for the surface. The plane through the origin that contains the vectors i - j and j - k
boyakko [2]

Answer:

parametric representation: x = u, y = v - u ,  z = - v

Explanation:

Given vectors :

i - j ,  j - k

represent the vector equation of the plane as:

r ( u, v ) = r₀ + <em>u</em>a + vb

where:  r₀ = position vector

            u and v = real numbers

             a and b = nonparallel vectors

expressing the nonparallel vectors as :

a = i -j , b = j - k , r = ( x,y,z ) and r₀ = ( x₀, y₀, z₀ )

hence we can express vector equation of the plane as

r(u,v) = ( x₀ + u, y₀ - u + v,  z₀ - v )

Finally the parametric representation of the surface through (0,0,0) i.e. origin = 0

( x, y , z ) = ( x₀ + u,  y₀ - u + v,   z₀ - v )

x = 0 + u ,

y = 0 - u + v

z = 0 - v

∴ parametric representation: x = u, y = v - u ,  z = - v
