Answer:

The value is  \rho_s  =  4.026 *10^{-6} \  C/m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The radius of the inner conductor  is  r_1 = 1 \ mm =  0.001 \ m

    The radius of the outer conductor is  r_2 = 3 \ mm = 0.003 \  m

    The potential at the outer conductor is  V = 1.5 kV  =  1.5 *10^{3} \  V

Generally the capacitance per length of the capacitor like set up of the two conductors is

      C= \frac{2 * \pi * \epsilon_o }{ ln [\frac{r_2}{r_1} ]}

Here \epsilon_o is the permitivity of free space with value  \epsilon_o =  8.85*10^{-12} C/(V \cdot m)

=>   C= \frac{2 *  3.142  * 8.85*10^{-12}  }{ ln [\frac{0.003}{0.001} ]}

=>   C= 50.6 *10^{-12} \  F/m

Generally given that the potential  of the outer conductor with respect to the inner conductor is positive it then mean that the outer conductor is positively charge

Generally the line  charge density of the outer  conductor is mathematically represented as

      \rho_l  =  C *  V

=>   \rho_d  =  50.6*10^{-12} *  1.5*10^{3}

=>   \rho_d  =  7.59*10^{-8} \  C/m

Generally the surface charge density is mathematically represented as

        \rho_s  =  \frac{\rho_l }{2 \pi * r_2 }    here 2 \pi r = (circumference \ of \ outer \  conductor  )

=>    \rho_s  =  \frac{7.59 *10^{-8} }{2* 3.142 * 0.003 }

=>    \rho_s  =  4.026 *10^{-6} \  C/m^2

The fatty layer contains many nerves and blood vessels. True or False
mylen [45]

Answer:

False , The fatty layer do not contains many nerves and blood vessels. The fatty layer is related to skin layers.

Explanation:

The fatty layer is the most under a layer of skin. It made up of a system of collagen and fat cells. It helps maintain the body's temperature and shields the body from harm by serving as a shock absorber.

The dermis is the central layer of the skin. The dermis is maintained collectively by a protein termed collagen. This layer gives skin elasticity and power. The dermis also holds shock and feel receptors.

How does an inclined plane affect the effort needed to move a load vertically?
VashaNatasha [74]

If we pull an object vertically upwards then we need to apply a force which is equal in the magnitude of the weight of the object

F = mg

now when we pull the same object upwards along an inclined plane with angle then we require a force which will balance the component of weight along the inclined

so it is given as

F' = mgsin\theta

so as if we compare the two forces we can say that since the value of sine is always less than 1 for an angle less than 90 degree

so in the 2nd case when we pull the object along the inclined plane it will require less effort

so correct answer is

<em>A. reduce effort</em>

Are switches connected in series or parallel with the devices they control?
andrezito [222]

In some unusual applications of unusual components, I can think of unusual electric circuits where a switch may be connected in parallel with a device in order to control it.  

But I'm sure this is not what's intended in a question on the high-school level.  

Until you get in a situation with tricky applications in a tricky circuit, your switches will always be connect <em>in series</em> with the devices they control.
