Compressed gases are highly explosive when exposed to high temperatures, because they expand rapidly.

The electric potential at the origin of an xy-coordinate system is 40 V. A -8.0-μC charge is brought from x = +∞ to that point.
vredina [299]

Answer:

-320 μJ.

Explanation:

Consider a point with an electrical charge of q. Assume that V is the electrical potential at the position of that charge. The electrical potential of that point charge will be equal to:

\text{Potential Energy} = q \cdot V.

Keep in mind that since both q and V might not be positive, the size of the electrical potential energy might not be positive, either.

For this point charge,

  • q = \rm -8.0\; \mu C; (that's -8.0 microjoules, which equals to \rm -8.0\times 10^{-6}\; J)
  • V = \rm 40\; V.

Hence its electrical potential energy:

\text{Potential Energy} = q\cdot V = \rm (-8.0\; \mu C) \times 40\; V = -320\; \mu J.

Why is this value negative? The electrical potential energy of a charge is equal to the work needed to bring that charge from infinitely far away all the way to its current position. Also, negative charges are attracted towards regions of high electrical potential. Bringing this \rm -8.0\; \mu C negative charge to the origin will not require any external work. Instead, this process will release 320 μJ of energy. As a result, the electrical potential energy is a negative value.

A 782.10 kg car is brought from 7.60 m/s to 3.61 m/s over a time period of 4.23 seconds. What is the average force the car exper
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

–735.17 N

The negative sign indicate that the force is acting in opposition direction to the car.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) of car = 782.10 kg

Initial velocity (u) = 7.60 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 3.61 m/s

Time (t) = 4.23 s

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 7.60 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 3.61 m/s

Time (t) = 4.23 s

Acceleration (a) =?

a = (v – u) / t

a = (3.61 – 7.60) / 4.23

a = –3.99 / 4.23

a = –0.94 m/s²

Finally, we shall determine the force experienced by the car as shown below:

Mass (m) of car = 782.10 kg

Acceleration (a) = –0.94 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 782.10 × –0.94

F = –735.17 N

The negative sign indicate that the force is acting in opposition direction to the car.

Which two options describe physical properties of matter?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

A and E.

Explanation:

Physical properties have to do with things that are not done chemically.

A has to do with light that you can see.

B has to do with Ph (If not A this is your next answer)

C mentions a Patina which is a chemical reaction known as oxidation

D has to do with chemical reactions

E is always correct.  One of the fundamental laws about matter is that it must always have mass.

I am 99% confident in A and E as your answer, but if it is wrong go with B and E.

Hope this helps!
