As the distance from a charged particle, "q", increases, the electric potential decreases.

<h3>Electric potential between particles</h3>

The electric potential between particles is the work done in moving a unit charge from infinity to a certain point against the electrical resistance of the field.

V = Kq/r

where;

K is Coulomb's constant
q is the magnitude of the charge
r is the distance between the charges

Thus, from the formula above, as the distance from a charged particle, "q", increases, the electric potential decreases.

A 100 N force is applied to a 500 kg crate resting on frictionless wheels.

Alla [95]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

$a = \frac{100}{500} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2 \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

To balance a chemical equation we use______. <br> -coefficients <br> -subscripts

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Coefficients

Explanation:

Coefficients are used to balance chemical equations.
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants in a chemical equation should be equivalent to the mass of the products.
The conservation of mass is achieved in chemical equations is achieved through balancing chemical equations.
<em><u>Balancing chemical equations is a try and error of putting appropriate coefficients to the reactants or products to ensure that the number of atoms of each element are equal on the side of the reactants and that of products. </u></em>

water is pumped from a stream at the rate of 90kg every 30s and sprayed into a farm at a velocity of 15m/s. Calculate the power

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

340 W

Explanation:

Power = change in energy / change in time

P = ΔKE / Δt

P = ½ mv² / Δt

P = ½ (90 kg) (15 m/s)² / (30 s)

P = 337.5 W

Rounded to 2 significant figures, the power is 340 W.
