The right option is; b. mechanical
Mechanical energy is the best description of the energy of the ball as it flies over the pitcher’s head.
Mechanical energy is the energy that an object acquires due to its position or due to its motion. From the question, the baseball player has chemical potential energy (stored as food) which is transformed into work. As the baseball player hits the ball, there is energy exchange in which the ball acquires energy to perform its work. The energy obtained by the ball upon which work is done is called mechanical energy.
Answer:
7.12 mm
Explanation:
From coulomb's law,
F = kqq'/r².................... Equation 1
Where F = force, k = proportionality constant, q and q' = The two point charges, r = distance between the two charges.
Make r the subject of the equation,
r = √(kqq'/F).......................... Equation 2
Given: q = q' = 75.0 nC = 75×10⁻⁹ C, F = 1.00 N
Constant: k = 9.0×10⁹ Nm²/C².
Substitute into equation 2
r = √[ (75×10⁻⁹ )²9.0×10⁹/1]
r = 75×10⁻⁹.√(9.0×10⁹)
r = (75×10⁻⁹)(9.49×10⁴)
r = 711.75×10⁻⁵
r = 7.12×10⁻³ m
r = 7.12 mm
Hence the distance between the point charge = 7.12 mm
The group of elements that have some properties of metals and some properties of nonmetals are called metalloids.
