Answer:

increase

Explanation:

Electric potential is defined as the work done in bringing a unit positive charge from infinity to that point against the electrical forces of the field. Taking a test positive charge from one point to another means that work is done against the field hence electric potential increases.

A small airplane with a wingspan of 18.0 m is flying due north at a speed of 63.6 m/s over a region where the vertical component
choli [55]

Answer:

(a) ε = 1373.8.

(b) The wingtip which is at higher potential.

Explanation:

(a) Finding the potential difference between the airplane wingtips.

Given the parameters

wingspan of the plane is = 18.0m

speed of the plane in north direction is = 70.0m/s

magnetic field of the earth is = 1.20μT

The potential difference is given as:

ε = Blv

where ε = potential difference of wingtips

B = magnetic field of earth

l = wingspan of airplane

v = speed of airplane

ε = 1.2 x 18.0 x 63.6

ε  = 1373.8

(b) Which wingtip is at  higher potential?

The wingtip which is at higher potential.

Could a person at the south pole see the north star, explain?? ​
9966 [12]

Answer:

If conditions are just right, you can see Polaris from just south of the equator.  Although Polaris is also known as the North Star, it doesn't lie precisely above Earth's North Pole. If it did, Polaris would have a declination of exactly 90 degree.

An object that has kinetic energy must what ?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

An object that has kinetic energy must be <em>moving</em>.

The formula for an object's kinetic energy is

KE = (1/2) · (the object's mass) · <u><em>(the object's speed)²</em></u>

As you can see from the formula, if the object has no speed, then its kinetic energy is zero.  That's why kinetic energy is usually called the "energy of motion", and if an object HAS kinetic energy, then that tells you right away that it must be moving.
