Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Equipotential lines are the imaginary lines in the space where actually the electric potential is same at each and every point.

Work is not required to move along such points of the equipotential line because the movement is always perpendicular to the electric field lines because these lines are always perpendicular to the electric field lines.

The electric potential for a point charge is given mathematically as:

$V=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0}\times \frac{Q}{r}$

where:

$Q=$ magnitude of the point charge

$r=$ radial distance form the charge

$\epsilon_0=$ permittivity of free space

Select the correct answer. A credit union is a business that is owned by people who have something in common, offers you a place

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The primary purpose in furthering their goal of service is to encourage members to save money. Another purpose is to offer loans to members. In fact, credit unions have traditionally made loans to people of ordinary means. YOU ARE PART OWNER. Credit unions are owned and controlled by the people, or members, who use their services. Your vote counts. A volunteer board of directors is elected by members to manage a credit union.

A credit union is a nonprofit financial cooperative owned by and operated for the benefit of its members. It accepts deposits, makes loans, and provides other services.

A Heavy crate applied a force of 1500 N on a 25m2 piston. What force needs to be applied on a 0.8m2 piston to lift the crate?

Aleks04 [339]

25/1500 is equal to 0.8/x
0.8*1500 is equal to 1200
1200/25 is equal to 48 N

Describe the principle of conversation of energy:

exis [7]

Answer: Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, rather it is converted from one form to another

Explanation:

The principle of conversation of energy explains how energy is conserved in nature by being converted from one form to another such that no energy is created nor destroyed.

Practical examples include:

- electrical pressing iron that converts electrical energy to heat energy

- solar panels that converts solar energy to electrical energy

- Car batteries that converts chemical energy to light energy etc

Physics question, answer completely with work

Alenkasestr [34]

The force is 2.0 N east

Explanation:

The impulse exerted by a force is defined as the product between the force itself and the time interval during which the force is applied. Mathematically, it is equal to the change in momentum experienced by the object on which the force is acting:

$I=F\Delta t = \Delta p$

Where

I is the impulse

F is the force

$Delta t$ is the time interval during which the force is applied

$\Delta p$ is the change in momentum

In this problem,

$\Delta t = 3.0 s$ is the time interval

$I=6.0 N\cdot s$ (east) is the impulse

Therefore, the magnitude of the force is

$F=\frac{I}{\Delta t}=\frac{6.0}{3.0}=2.0 N$

And the direction is the same as the impulse (east).

Answer:

1.84 kJ (kilojoules)

Explanation:

A specific heat of 0.46 J/g Cº means that it takes 0.46 Joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of iron by 1 Cº.

If we want to heat 50 g of iron from 20° C to 100° C, we can make the following calculation:

Heat = (specific heat)*(mass)*(temp change)

Heat = (0.46 J/g Cº)*(50g)*(100° C - 20° C)

[Note how the units cancel to yield just Joules]

Heat = 1840 Joules, or 1.84 kJ

[Note that the number is positive: Energy is added to the system. If we used cold iron to cool 50g of 100° C water, the temperature change would be (Final - Initial) or (20° C - 100° C). The number is -1.84 kJ: the negative means heat was removed from the system (the iron).
