Answer:

6.4×10⁻¹⁹ C

Explanation:

From the question,

V = E×d.............. Equation 1

Where V = electric potential, E = Electric Field, d = distance moved by the particle.

Given: E = 75 N/C, d = 10 m.

Substitute into equation 1

V = 75×10 = 750 V.

Also Using,

W = qV.................. Equation 2

W = Work done by the particle when it moves, q = Particles charge

make q the subject of the equation,

q = W/V............ Equation 3

Given: W = 4.8×10⁻¹⁶ J, V = 750 V

Substitute into equation 3

q = 4.8×10⁻¹⁶/750

q = 6.4×10⁻¹⁹ C

Two point charges each have a value of 3.0 c and are separated by a distance of 4.0 m. what is the electric field at a point mid
swat32
 <span>Place a test charge in the middle. It is 2cm away from each charge. 
The electric field E= F/Q where F is the force at the point and Q is the charge causing the force in this point. 
The test charge will have zero net force on it. The left 30uC charge will push it to the right and the right 30uC charge will push it to the left. The left and right force will equal each other and cancel each other out. 
THIS IS A TRICK QUESTION. 
THe electric field exactly midway between them = 0/Q = 0. 
But if the point moves even slightly you need the following formula 
F= (1/4Piε)(Q1Q2/D^2) 
Assume your test charge is positive and make sure you remember two positive charges repel, two unlike charges attract. Draw the forces on the test charge out as vectors and find the magnetude of the force, then divide by the total charge to to find the electric field strength:)</span>

How do vafiations in electronegativity result in the unequal sharign of electrons in polar molecuels?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer and Explanation:

Polar molecules are formed as a result of unequal sharing of electrons by the atoms in the molecule which creates polarization like that in water molecule.

If the electrons are shared equally by the atoms in the molecule then there won't be any polarization of the molecule and the molecule is non polar.

Electro-negativity is that property of an atom which lets it attract negative charges, i.e., electrons. The more the electro-negativity of an atom in the molecule the more are the chances of its polarization.

a flashlight has a resistance of 2.4 ohms. what voltage is applied by the batteries if the current in the circuit is 2.5A?
Mashcka [7]

E = I R

That means 

        Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

                     =   (2.5 A)  x  (2.4 ohms)

                     =       6 volts .

Water has the ability to dissolve polar covalent molecules like sucrose by
Alla [95]

Explanation:

Sucrose is a disaccharide which is composed of fructose and glucose. Sucrose molecule has oxygen atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms (O-H bonds - Polar groups) on all ends of its double 6-Carbon ring. The areas near the oxygen atoms are slightly negative, and the areas near the hydrogen atoms are slightly positive that is, the O-H bonds are polar. They bond with the neighbouring Oxygen and Hydrogen atoms because of their

dipole - dipole attractions and hence hydrogen bonds are formed.

However, the covalent bonds within the molecule aren't broken. But rather, the hydrogen bonds holding the sucrose molecules in the crystalline lattice.
