The electric potential energy of the charge is reduced because it decreases with increase in the distance between charges.

<h3>What is electric potential energy?</h3>

Electric potential energy can be defined as the energy needed to move a charge against an electric field.

It is calculated using the formula;

U = Kq1 q2 ÷ r

Where Q = electric potential energy

k = Coulombs constant

q1 and q2 = charges

r = distance of separation

Electric potential energy is inversely proportional to the distance of separation of the charges.

If the distance of the charges changes from 3mm to 6mm, then the electric potential energy of the charges is reduced because it decreases with increase in the distance of the charges.

Therefore, the electric potential energy of the charge is reduced because it decreases with increase in the distance between charges.

Is (kr) an element a compound or a mixture?
Xelga [282]

Krypton ... symbol Kr ... is an element.  It's element number 36, because
there are 36 protons in the nucleus of every atom of Krypton. 

Krypton has nothing to do with Superman, except that about 75 years ago,
the creators of Superman thought it was a cool-sounding scientific word,
so they chose it for the name of his home planet.

A child on a tricycle is moving at a speed of 1.40 m/s at the start of a 2.25 m high and 12.4 m long incline. The total mass is
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The work done by the child as the tricycle travels down the incline is 416.96 J

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the child, v_i = 1.4 m/s

final velocity of the child, v_f = 6.5 m/s

initial height of the inclined plane, h = 2.25 m

length of the inclined plane, L = 12.4 m

total mass, m = 48 kg

frictional force, f_k = 41 N

The work done by the child is calculated as;

\Delta E_{mech} = W - f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = \Delta E_{mech}  + f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = (K.E_f - K.E_i) + (P.E_f - P.E_i) + f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = \frac{1}{2} m(v_f^2 - v_i^2) + mg(h_f - h_i) + f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = \frac{1}{2} \times 48(6.5^2 - 1.4^2) + 48\times 9.8(0-2.25) + (41\times 12.4)\\\\W = 966.96  \ - \ 1058.4 \ + \ 508.4\\\\W = 416.96 \ J

Therefore, the work done by the child as the tricycle travels down the incline is 416.96 J
