Answer:

A.The positive z-direction

Explanation:

We are given that

Linear charge density of long line which is  located on the x-axis=\lambda_1

Linear charge density of another long line which is  located on the y-axis=\lambda_2

We have to find the direction of electric field at z=a on the positive z-axis if \lambda_1 and \lambda_2 are positive.

The direction of electric field  at z=a on the positive z-axis  is positive z-direction .

Because \lambda_1 and \lambda_2 are positive and the electric field is  applied away from the positive charge.

Hence, option A is true.

A.The positive z-direction

Do you believe in God (why or why not)?
masya89 [10]
Yes I believe in god.I believe in him because there is huge gaps in science that can not be solved. I also believe in him because I was also taught about him when I was little by family & my mom so I grew up learning about him which made my beliefs stronger of course.

harina [27]

Answer:

R=2.78\ \Omega

Explanation:

Given that,

The current flowing in the circuit, I = 3 A

The power of the battery, P = 25 W

We need to find the resistance of the battery. We know that the power of the battery is given by the formula as follows :

P=I^2R

Put all the values to find R.

R=\dfrac{P}{I^2}\\\\R=\dfrac{25}{(3)^2}\\\\R=2.78\ \Omega

So, the resistance is equal to 2.78\ \Omega.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

An object is called a horizontal projectile if it is launched from a certain height with some initial horizontal velocity only. The initial vertical velocity of such an object is zero. But as the object falls through the atmosphere the horizontal component of velocity remains constant but vertical component increases due to gravitational acceleration.

What causes dispersion of light?​
AysviL [449]
Dispersion occurs due to the different degrees of refraction experienced by different colours of light. Light of different colours may travel with the same speed in a vacuum, but they travel at different speeds in some refracting medium. The speed of violet light is relatively lower than that of red light.

Based on the chemical equation, use the drop-down menu to choose the coefficients that will balance the chemical
MaRussiya [10]

The coefficients in order are 2, 1, 1

<h3>What is balanced chemical equation?</h3>

A balanced equation is an equation for a chemical reaction in which the number of atoms for each element in the reaction and the total charge is the same for both the reactants and the products.

In other words, the mass and the charge are balanced on both sides of the reaction.

According to the given situation,

To balance the the chemical equation,

Step 1 - Add a 2 on the Na2HPO4:

2(Na₂HPO₄)  ⇒ Na4P₂O₇ + H₂O

Step 2 -Next take count of each element on both sides to see if the 2 is balanced or not:

On the left there are 4 Na, 2 H, 2 P, and 8 O

On the right there are 4 Na, 2 H, 2 P, and 8 O

Step 3 - Now we will divide by 2

i.e. 2 NA.H. P

The coefficient of  Na is 2 , Coefficient of H is 1 and Coefficient of P is 1

Therefore,

The coefficients in order are 2, 1, 1.
