J. j. thomson’s experiment disproved the theory that an atom

Two point charges are on the y axis. a 3.90-µc charge is located at y = 1.25 cm, and a -2.4-µc charge is located at y = −1.80 cm. (a) find the total electric potential at the origin. v (b) find the total electric potential at the point whose coordinates are (1.50 cm, 0). v

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)
