A parallel plate capacitor is composed of two parallel plates of aluminium foil, each with a surface area of 2.5 m2 that are separated by 2.0 mm The foils are then oppositely charged with 5 mC of charge.

a) what is the electric field between and outside of the capacitor near its middle ?

b) If a dust particle (m = 0.5 ng) picks up 10,000 electrons and finds itself right near the negatively charge plate, what is its KE (in J and eV) after it moves to the positive plate?

c) how long does it take the dust particle to get to the positive plate ?

d) what will its speed be when it gets to the positive plate ?

  1. The National Cancer Institute conducted a 2-year study to determine whether cancer death rates for areas near nuclear power plants are higher than for areas without nuclear facilities. A spokesperson for the Cancer Institute said, "From the data at hand, there was no convincing evidence of any increased risk of death from any of the cancers surveyed due to living near nuclear facilities.” (1 points for each)   
  1. Let p denote the proportion of the population in areas near nuclear power plants who die of cancer during a given year. The researchers at the Cancer Institute have considered the null and alternative hypotheses below:

H0: p = value for areas without nuclear facilities

Ha: p > value for areas without nuclear facilities

According to the spokesperson’s statement, what is the conclusion of the National Cancer Institute? Select one of the following:

Reject H0                          Fail to reject H0                                         Reject Ha                          Fail to reject Ha

  1. If the National Cancer Institute researchers were incorrect in their conclusion that there is no increased cancer risk associated with living near a nuclear power plant, are they making a Type I or a Type II error? Read carefully and select one of the following:

  1. A Type II error, if the researchers were incorrect in their conclusion this would be rejecting the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is true.
  2. A Type I error, if the researchers were incorrect in their conclusion this would be failing to reject the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is true.
  3. A Type II error, if the researchers were incorrect in their conclusion this would be failing to reject the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is false.
  4. A Type I error, if the researchers were incorrect in their conclusion this would be rejecting the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is false.

When we talk about Physics (Einstein's) laws we use notions of distance and velocity. Take for example objects A and B. In A's base at specific moment of time there's definite distance to B and definite B's velocity.

But if there's a short wormhole staring near A and ending near B there's no more definite distance. There're actually two distances from A to B - e.g. long and short.

If the B's end of wormhole moves at B's speed (in A's base) then there're also two B's velocities - one normal and one equal to zero measured via wormhole.

Doesn't that mean that notions of distance and velocity are incorrect in the space with wormholes, i.e. multiconnected space?

== UPDATE ===========================================

It seems that I should reformulate my question in a more strict way.

There're two relativity point objects A and B. There's also a wormhole W.

First wormhole mouth Wa is near A and is connected to A. Second mouth Wb is near B and it is moving together with B at B's speed in A's base. But the wormhole length (the distance between Wa and Wb measured through wormhole) is constant.

Now in A's base we have some relativity formulas for B's energy, time shift, etc. In these formulas we put Vb - B's velocity in A's base.

The question is: how do we measure Vb to use in the formulas?

There're two ways:

  1. We measure Vb in ordinary way out of wormhole. In this case Vb have some large value.

  2. We measure Vb through the wormhole. In this case Vb is equal to 0.

Which value should we use in the formulas?

ACC 3010 Project 2

This project is a continuation of Project 1, KTZFIG Consulting Inc.   An additional 11 months have passed since Project 1 (we are now at June 30, 2019 the company’s year end). The friends have expanded the shop to include sales of gidgits as well as the consulting services activities. The new company name is KTZFIG Consulting & Sales Inc. All transactions for the company through the end of the year have been posted to the accounts EXCEPT FOR those relating to the purchasing and sales of gidgits in June. You will be recording and posting those entries. Additionally, all adjustments have been made EXCEPT for those related to accounting for bad debts and any inventory and cost of goods sold issues. You will be adding that information. You will then be preparing the year end multi step income statement for the company. The following is a suggested series of steps for completing the project:
1.    Complete the Perpetual Inventory card worksheets to reflect the June purchases and sales under the 3 different Inventory costing methods. You need to include totals for Purchases and Cost of Goods Sold Quantity and Total Cost and must show Ending Inventory total units and total cost. For the weighted average computations, round unit cost to the nearest penny and total cost to the nearest dollar.

Inventory on Hand at the beginning of June:

Units Cost/Unit Total Cost
Purchase 1 12 35 $420
Purchase 2 14 40 560
Total 26 $980

June 2019 transactions related to buying and selling gidgit inventory

1-Jun Sold 16 gidgits at $98 each on credit
6-Jun Purchased 25 gidgits at a cost of $45 per gidgit on credit
15-Jun Sold 27 gidgits at $105 each on credit
20-Jun Purchased 30 gidgits at a cost of $50 per gidgit on credit
24-Jun Sold 25 gidgits at $108 each on credit

The PHYSICAL count of gidgit inventory on hadn at June 30, 2019 shows 10 gidgits at a LIFO cost of $980.

LIFO:

Date    Purchases    Cost of Goods    Inventory on Hand
Quantity   Unit Cost Total Cost    Quantity Unit Cost Total Cost Quantity Unit Cost Total Cost   

FIFO:

Date    Purchases    Cost of Goods    Inventory on Hand
    Quantity   Unit Cost Total Cost    Quantity Unit Cost Total Cost Quantity Unit Cost Total Cost   

Weighted Average:

Date    Purchases    Cost of Goods    Inventory on Hand
    Quantity   Unit Cost Total Cost    Quantity Unit Cost Total Cost Quantity Unit Cost Total Cost
