Answer:
C) equal to zero
Explanation:
Electric potential is calculated by multiplying constant and charge, then dividing it by distance. The location that we want to measure is equidistant from two particles, mean that the distance from both particles is the same(r2=r1). The charges of the particle have equal strength of magnitude but the opposite sign(q2=-q1). The resultant will be:V = kq/r
ΔV= V1 + V2= kq1/r1 + kq2/r2
ΔV= V1 + V2= kq1/r1 + k(-q1)/(r)1
ΔV= kq1/r1 - kq1/r1
ΔV=0
The electric potential equal to zero
Observations are used in order to collect data and record a variety of interesting or useful key points about the subject or specimen in observation. These observations, if made well, can be recorded and used to supplement a hypothesis.
I think 42… sorry if its wrong :( hope it helps..
Answer:
1) At the highest point of the building.
2) The same amount of energy.
3) The kinetic energy is the greatest.
4) Potential energy = 784.8[J]
5) True
Explanation:
Question 1
The moment when it has more potential energy is when the ball is at the highest point in the building, that is when the ball is at a height of 40 meters from the ground. It is taken as a point of reference of potential energy, the level of the soil, at this point of reference the potential energy is zero.
![E_{p} = m*g*h\\E_{p} = 2*9.81*40\\E_{p} = 784.8[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%20m%2Ag%2Ah%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%202%2A9.81%2A40%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%20784.8%5BJ%5D)
Question 2)
The potential energy as the ball falls becomes kinetic energy, in order to be able to check this question we can calculate both energies with the input data.
![E_{p}=m*g*h\\ E_{p} = 2*9.81*20\\ E_{p} = 392.4[J]\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bp%7D%3Dm%2Ag%2Ah%5C%5C%20E_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%202%2A9.81%2A20%5C%5C%20E_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%20392.4%5BJ%5D%5C%5C)
And the kinetic energy will be:
![E_{k}=0.5*m*v^{2}\\ where:\\v = velocity = 19.8[m/s]\\E_{k}=0.5*2*(19.8)^{2}\\ E_{k}=392.04[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bk%7D%3D0.5%2Am%2Av%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5C%20%20where%3A%5C%5Cv%20%3D%20%20velocity%20%3D%2019.8%5Bm%2Fs%5D%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D0.5%2A2%2A%2819.8%29%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5C%20%20E_%7Bk%7D%3D392.04%5BJ%5D)
Therefore it is the ball has the same potential energy and kinetic energy as it is half way through its fall.
Question 3)
As the ball drops all potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, therefore being close to the ground, the ball will have its maximum kinetic energy.
![E_{k}=E_{p}=m*g*h = 2*9.81*40\\ E_{k} = 784.8[J]\\ E_{k} = 0.5*2*(28)^{2}\\ E_{k} = 784 [J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bk%7D%3DE_%7Bp%7D%3Dm%2Ag%2Ah%20%3D%202%2A9.81%2A40%5C%5C%20%20E_%7Bk%7D%20%3D%20784.8%5BJ%5D%5C%5C%20E_%7Bk%7D%20%3D%200.5%2A2%2A%2828%29%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5C%20E_%7Bk%7D%20%3D%20784%20%5BJ%5D)
Question 4)
It can be easily calculated using the following equation
![E_{p} =m*g*h\\E_{p}=2*9.81*40\\E_{p} =784.8[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bp%7D%20%3Dm%2Ag%2Ah%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%3D2%2A9.81%2A40%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D784.8%5BJ%5D)
Question 5)
True
The potential energy at 20[m] is:
![E_{p}=2*9.81*20\\ E_{p}= 392.4[J]\\The kinetic energy is:\\E_{k}=0.5*2*(19.8)^{2} \\E_{k}=392[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bp%7D%3D2%2A9.81%2A20%5C%5C%20E_%7Bp%7D%3D%20392.4%5BJ%5D%5C%5CThe%20kinetic%20energy%20is%3A%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D0.5%2A2%2A%2819.8%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D392%5BJ%5D)
