An electric field with an average magnitude of about 175 N/C points downward in the atmosphere near Earth's surface. We wish to "float" a sulfur sphere weighing 7.4 N in this field by charging the sphere. What charge (both sign and magnitude) must be used?

Which statement is best supported by the information in the chart? wave y is moving the fastest. wave x is moving the fastest. all of the waves are moving at the same speed. all of the waves have the same value of wavelengths per second.

Cells in the nervous system have a potential difference of 70 mv across the cell membrane separating the interior of the cell from the extracellular fluid. this potential difference is maintained by ion pumps that move charged ions across the membrane. is this an emf? select the correct answer and explanation. 1)no. the ion pumps cannot separate charges; thus, they cannot create a potential difference. 2)yes. the ion pumps cannot separate charges, but they still can create a potential difference. 3)yes. the ion pumps can actively separate charge; thus, they can create a potential difference. 4)no. the ion pumps can separate charges, but they cannot create a potential difference.

Does the asteroid belt revolve around the sun?
