Answer:

- 2.7 x 10^-6 J

Explanation:

q1 = 1 nC  at x = 0 cm

q2 = - 1 nC at x = 1 cm

q3 = 4 nC at x = 2 cm

The formula for the potential energy between the two charges is given by

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}

where r be the distance between the two charges

By use of superposition principle, the total energy of the system is given by

U = U_{1,2}+U_{2,3}+U_{3,1}

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{2}q_{3}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{3}q_{1}}{0.02}

U=-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 1\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}+-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.02}

U = - 2.7 x 10^-6 J

Anna [14]

Answer: a= 37m

Explanation: V= 15 m/s (Velocity) t= 0.41s (time) formula: a= v/t

15 m/s / 0.41 (15 divided by 0.41) = 36.583m

There are 2 significant digits, 36, you look at the third digit, either round up or down in this case up to 36. a= 37m

Predict using Boyle's law, what will happen to a balloon that an ocean diver takes to a pressure of 202 kPa.
kobusy [5.1K]

The volume of the balloon will halve

Explanation:

Boyle's law states that for an ideal gas kept at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is proportional to its volume. Mathematically,

pV=const.

where

p is the gas pressure

V is the volume

The equation can also be rewritten as

p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2

And if we apply it to the gas inside the balloon in this problem (assuming its temperature is constant), we have:

p_1 = 101 kPa is the initial pressure at sea level (the atmospheric pressure)

V_1 is the initial volume

p_2 = 202 kPa is the final pressure

V_2 is the final volume

Substituting into the equation, we find:

V_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{p_2}=\frac{(101)V_1}{202}=\frac{V_1}{2}

Which means that the volume of the balloon will halve.

The planet in our solar system whose orbit actually brings it inside the orbit of another planet is
Ber [7]

Answer:

Pluto

Explanation:

In our solar system, we have several planet. Pluto is one of the. Pluto is a planet that is highly oval shaped orbit and eccentric that brings it inside the another orbit. It get inside the orbit of Neptune. Sometimes even Neptune get far away from sun in comparison to the dwarf planet Pluto.

It is very strange happening in the world of planet. it occurs in the year of 1979 and 1999. But Pluto never ever crashed into Neptune. It happen because Neptune takes every three lapse that takes around the sun but Pluto makes only two lapse. This happening prevents two bodies from clashes.
