Manuel is scuba diving near a school of fish at a depth of −9.5 feet relative to sea level. Then he descends to look at a coral reef so that his depth changes by
4/5
of the current value. Find Manuel's depth, relative to sea level, near the coral reef.
Question 1a. A soccer goal, found is a city park, is made up of tubing that supports an odd-shaped hanging net behind the goal, but has a rectangular opening infront. The height of the opening is 2.5m and the width is 3.2m. If a uniform E-field, with a magnitude of 0.1N/C, passes through the goal from the front to the back, entering at 90 degrees to the plane of the goal opening, what is the flux through the net? Also, find the flux through the net if the E-fieldenters the goal at 60 degrees angle to the plane of the front goal. In both cases, assume that there no charge found inside the goal itself. CR (10)b. Show that the D field due to a point charge has a divergence of zero E(5)c.Find the charge in the volume defined 1 ≤ r ≤ 2m in spherical coordinates, if P=(c/m)
