Which best describes the electric field created by a positive charge?

Physics

Aloiza [94]3 years ago

Answer:

Its rays point away from the charge.

Explanation:

The electric field due to a point charge is given by :

E=\dfrac{kq]{r^2}

Where

k is the electrostatic constant

q is the point charge

r is the distance from charge particle

It is clear that the electric field is directly proportional to the charge and inversely proportional to the distance from charge particle.

There are two types of charged particle i.e. negative and positive charge. For a positive charge, the direction of electric field points away from it and for a negative charge, the direction of electric field points towards it.

Hence, the correct option is (c).

Anna35 [415]
Out of that list, the concave mirror is the only item that can concentrate sunlight and heat into a small area. But if you could get ahold of a convex lens, that would be even better.

Answer:

Newton's First Law of Motion.

Explanation:

Newton's First Law of Motion states that a body continues its state of motion untill and unless an external force acts on it. Here, the truck moves forward even after the breaks are applied in order to maintain its State of motion.

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

20 hertz of frequency produced.

Explanation:

\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{period} }

Here we will find frequency and period should be in second, here given: 0.05 seconds

using the formula:

\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{0.05} }

\boxed{frequency =20}

What type of galaxy is M82 based on its appearance in the visible-light view?
SSSSS [86.1K]
<h2>Answer: irregular</h2>

According to Hubble  galaxies are classified into elliptical, spiral and irregular.

 

It should be noted this classification is based only on the visual appearance of the galaxy, and does not take into account other aspects, such as the rate of star formation or the activity of the galactic nucleus.  

The classification is as follows:  

1. Elliptical galaxies: Their main characteristic is that the concentration of stars decreases from the nucleus, which is small and very bright, towards its edges. In addition, they contain a large population of old stars, usually little gas and dust, and some newly formed stars.  

2. Spiral galaxies: They have the shape of flattened disks containing some old stars and also a large population of young stars, enough gas and dust, and molecular clouds that are the birthplace of the stars.  

3. Irregular Galaxies:  Galaxies that do not have well-defined structure and symmetry.  

In this context, galaxy M82 does not match with the first two types of galaxies, because it has not a defined shape.

Therefore, M82 is an  irregular galaxy.
