The change in potential energy of the proton is  5.6 x 10^{-17} Joule

<h3>What is a Uniform Electric Field ?</h3>

A uniform electric field is where the electric field strength is the same at all points in the field. In the uniform field, the force experienced by a charge is the same no matter where it is placed in the field.

Given that a proton moves a distance 10 cm in a uniform electric field of 3.5 kN C, in the direction of the field.

  • The distance d = 10 cm = 0.1 m
  • Electric field E = 3.5 KN/C
  • Proton charge q = 1.6 x 10^{-19} C

The Work done = Fd

but F = Eq

Recall that Electric field E = F/q = V/d

Where V = potential difference.

Let us first calculate the V

E = V/d

V = Ed

Substitute all the parameters into the formula above

V = 3.5 × 10³ × 0.1

V = 350 v

from F/q = V/d

make F the subject of formula and substitute it in work formula

F = Vq/d

W.D = Vq/d x d

W.D = Vq

Substitute all the parameters into the formula above

W.D = 350 x 1.6 x 10^{-19}

W.D = 5.6 x 10^{-17} J

Work done = Energy = Potential Energy

Therefore, the change in potential energy of the proton is 5.6 x 10^{-17}<em> Joule</em>

What is the anomalous expansivity of water
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The anomalous expansion of water is an abnormal property of water whereby it expands instead of contracting when the temperature goes from 4o C to 0o C, and it becomes less dense. The density is maximum at 4 degree centigrade and decreases below that temperature as shown in graph.

Explanation:do you want me to explain it more??

Describe how the coriolis effect acts differently based on location on earth
sammy [17]

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect happens when an entity is perceived from a moving reference frame going in a straight path. The changing reference frame makes the object appear as if it were moving along a curved road.

Circulation is counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere. Circulation is clockwise in the southern hemisphere, and it is the equator, it is straight down without circulation.

A dog of mass 4 kg runs up a hill of height 8 m. How much gravitational potential energy does the dog gain?
Genrish500 [490]
A. 314 because when you use the formula for the GPE ; GPE=MGH or means mass times gravity time height (4x8x9.8) and thats equivalent to 313.6 which rounds up to 314. Hope it helps

Suppose we measure the energy stored in some inductor to be E when there is a current I running through it. If I double the curr
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

If I double the current in the inductor, the new total energy will become 4E (option f).

Explanation:

The coil or inductor is a passive component made of an insulated wire that stores energy in the form of a magnetic field due to its form of coiled turns of wire, through a phenomenon called self-induction. In other words, inductors store energy in the form of a magnetic field. The energy stored in the space where there is a magnetic field in the inductor is:

E=\frac{1}{2} *L*I^{2}

where E is Energy [J], L is Inductance [H] and I is Current [A].

If you double the current in the inductor, then the new value of the current is I'= 2*I. So replacing the new total energy is:

E'=\frac{1}{2} *L*I'^{2}=\frac{1}{2} *L*(2*I)^{2}=\frac{1}{2} *L*4*I^{2}=4*\frac{1}{2} *L*I^{2}

Then:

E'=4*E

<em><u>If I double the current in the inductor, the new total energy will become 4E (option f).</u></em>
