Answer:

-30 N/C

Explanation:

Since the potential changes from 0.90 V to 1.2 V when I move the probe 1 cm closer to the non-grounded electrode, the electric field is the gradient between the two points is given by E = -ΔV/Δx where ΔV = change in electric potential and Δx = distance of potential change = 1 cm = 0.01 m

Now ΔV = final potential - initial potential = 1.2 V - 0.90 V = 0.30 V

Since E = -ΔV/Δx

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

E = -ΔV/Δx

E = -0.30 V/0.01 m

E = -30 V/m

Since 1 V/m = 1 N/C.

E = -30 N/C

So, the average electric field is -30 N/C

A 32-n force acts on a small mass in the positive x-direction. a 26-n force also acts on it in the negative x-direction. what is
motikmotik

Equilibrium force is the force that will keep the small mass in place, hence no movement must be made. So we know that 32 N of force is acted towards the positive direction so +32 N. Which is counteracted by 26 N force so:

32 N – 26 N = 6 N (positive)

Since positive 6 is left, therefore this must be acted by an equilibrant negative 6 N.

 

Answer:

<span>- 6 N </span>

____ is undeniably accepted by scientists all over the world as the primary language of science.
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Latin

Explanation:

In order for the scientists to have a common and official name for a particular thing that can be understood by every scientist in the world, a single language has been established for the purpose. The language chosen is the Latin language. The official scientific names are given in this language, so it is a necessity for the scientists to know and understand this language. The terms that are commonly used are regional, and they come in many different languages, which is why this language has been chosen. Occasionally, the ancient Greek language is used as well, though much less than the Latin.
