Answer:

The electric field is  E = 7.5 *10^{6} \ N/C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The radius of the metal sphere is  R = 2.0 \ cm  =  0.02 \ m

     The excess charge which the metal sphere carries is  q =  3.0 \mu C  =  3.0*10^{-6} \ C

      The distance of the position being to the center is D = 6.0 \ cm  = 0.06 \ m

       The coulomb constant is   k =9*10^{9} \  N \cdot m^2 /C^2

Generally the electric field is mathematically represented as  

        E = \frac{k *  q}{D^2}

substituting values

        E = \frac{9*10^{9} *  30.*10^{-6}}{(0.06)^2}

      E = 7.5 *10^{6} \ N/C

Which statement correctly describes how thermal energy tends to spontaneously flow?
True [87]
The answer is A. Heat flows from high to low. For example, when you put an ice cube in a hot drink, the heat from the drink goes to the ice cube, and that is why it melts.

Consider the addition of an electron to the following atoms from the third period. Rank the atoms in order from the most negativ
sergeinik [125]

The question is incomplete, the atoms in the third period referred to in the question are shown in the image attached.

Answer:

Cl>Si>Ar

Explanation:

Electron affinity refers to the energy released when an atom accepts electron (s) to form a negative ion. It is a periodic property that shows similar trends as electro negativity.

Considering the atoms in period three given in the question; chlorine will have the most negative value of electron affinity. This owes to the fact that halogens accept electrons easily to form negative ions. Silicon in group 14 shows much less negative value of electron affinity while argon, a noble gas, does not accept electrons at all and has an electron affinity of zero KJMol-1 by standard.
