Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y
Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below
V = kq/y
Where k = 1/4πε0
Where V = electric potential,
k = electric constant = 9×10^9,
y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space
q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c
From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.
We have that
V = k/y
We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).
This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.
This fact makes option 1 the correct answer
Answer:
6.49 x 10^-8 N
Explanation:
formula is
F= G * ((m1 * m2)/r^2)
F = 6.67x10^-11 * ((6.8*6.8/.218)
F = 6.49 x 10^-8 Newtons
Answer:
c) 12
Explanation:
A Solar eclipse occurs when The Sun, The Earth and The Moon comes in a straight line with the Moon being in between the Earth and the Sun. At this point the Moon appears to block the Sun and Moon's shadow falls on Earth. This would occur only on the day of the New Moon.
If the Moon's orbit was in the same plane as that of the Earth's orbit. Every new Moon, there would be a Solar Eclipse. The Lunar cycle is of 29.5 Days which means there will be one new Moon every month. So there will be 12 Solar Eclipses every year.
Currently, the orbit of the Moon is tilted at an angle of 5° thus we don't see that many Solar eclipses. Maximum of 5 solar eclipses can occur in an year.
Explanation:
a. Net force is mass times acceleration (Newton's second law).
∑F = ma
∑F = (5.0 kg) (2.0 m/s²)
∑F = 10 N
b. The net force is the sum of the individual forces.
10 N = F − 5 N
F = 15 N
c. Friction force here is mgμ.
mgμ = 5 N
(5.0 kg) (10 m/s) μ = 5 N
μ = 0.1
The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic energy of the particle is equal to the work done on the particle:
The work done on the particle is the integral of the force on dx:
So, this corresponds to the change in kinetic energy of the particle.
