The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

A platypus foraging for prey can detect an electric field as small as 0.002 N/C.

-To give an idea of sensitivity of the platypus's electric sense, how far from a +80nC point charge does the field have this magnitude?

Solution :

Given electric field,  E = 0.002 N/C

Charge, Q = + 80 nC

$\therefore E = \frac{kQ}{R^2} $

or $R^2=\frac{kQ}{E}$

    $R^2=\frac{9\times 10^9 \times 80 \times 10^{-9}}{0.002}$

   R = 600 m

This is the distance of the charge from the point of observations.

Answer:

5.0 atm

Explanation:

P₁V₁=P₂V₂

P₁V₁/V₂=P₂

(1)(2.5)/(0•50)=P₂

P₂=5

Pressure is now 5.0 atm

a hippopotamus produces a pressure of 250000 pa when it is standing on all four feet if the weight of the hippo is 40000 N what
mamaluj [8]

0.04m²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure = 250000Pa

Weight = 40000N

Unknown:

Area of each foot = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force exerted per unit area of a body

  Pressure = \frac{force}{area}

To find the area;

        Area = \frac{force }{pressure}

    Area = \frac{40000}{250000} = 0.16m²

The force exerted by all the four feet is 0.16m²

the area of each feet = \frac{0.16}{4} = 0.04m²

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The answers include the following:

  • The unit of length most suitable for measuring the thickness of a cell phone is a meter.
  • The unit of length most suitable for measuring the height of a backyard tree is a meter.

<h3>What is Meter?</h3>

This is defined as the standard unit for measuring the length of a body and is denoted as m.

Height is a vertical type of length which is why meter was chosen as the most appropriate choice.

A nonuniform, but spherically symmetric, distribution of charge has a charge density ρ(r) given as follows: ρ(r)=ρ0(1−r/r) for r
Nadusha1986 [10]

A)<span>
dQ = ρ(r) * A * dr = ρ0(1 - r/R) (4πr²)dr = 4π * ρ0(r² - r³/R) dr 
which when integrated from 0 to r is 
total charge = 4π * ρ0 (r³/3 + r^4/(4R)) 
and when r = R our total charge is 
total charge = 4π*ρ0(R³/3 + R³/4) = 4π*ρ0*R³/12 = π*ρ0*R³ / 3 
and after substituting ρ0 = 3Q / πR³ we have 
total charge = Q ◄ 

B) E = kQ/d² 
since the distribution is symmetric spherically 

C) dE = k*dq/r² = k*4π*ρ0(r² - r³/R)dr / r² = k*4π*ρ0(1 - r/R)dr 
so 
E(r) = k*4π*ρ0*(r - r²/(2R)) from zero to r is 
and after substituting for ρ0 is 
E(r) = k*4π*3Q(r - r²/(2R)) / πR³ = 12kQ(r/R³ - r²/(2R^4)) 
which could be expressed other ways. 

D) dE/dr = 0 = 12kQ(1/R³ - r/R^4) means that 
r = R for a min/max (and we know it's a max since r = 0 is a min). 

<span>E) E = 12kQ(R/R³ - R²/(2R^4)) = 12kQ / 2R² = 6kQ / R² </span></span>

To tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of 1.50•10^6 N, one at an angle 19.0° west of north, a
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Work done by a tug boat, W = 1.735 x 10⁸ J

Explanation:

Given,

The of each tugboat, F = 1.5 x 10⁶ N

The angle of each tugboat forms with the resultant force, θ = 19°

The displacement of the supertanker, s = 710 m

The individual tugboat will be responsible for the displacement, d = 710/2

                                                                                                               = 355 m

The displacement component in each tugboat direction = 355 · sin θ meter

Therefore, the work done by each tugboat is

                                           W = F x S    joules

Substituting the values in the above equation

                                            W = 1.5 x 10⁶  x  355 · sin θ

                                                = 1.735 x 10⁸ J

Hence, the work done by each tugboat is, W = 1.735 x 10⁸ J
