A positive point charge q1 = +5.00 × 10−4C is held at a fixed position. A small object with mass 4.00×10−3kg and charge q2 = −3.

00×10−4C is projected directly at q1. Ignore gravity. When q2 is 4.00m away, its speed is 800m/s. What is its speed when it is 0.200m from q1?

Answer:

Therefore the speed of q₂ is 1961.19 m/s when it is 0.200 m from from q₁.

Explanation:

Energy conservation law: In isolated system the amount of total energy remains constant.

The types of energy are

  1. Kinetic energy.
  2. Potential energy.

Kinetic energy =\frac{1}{2} mv^2

Potential energy =\frac{Kq_1q_2}{d}

Here, q₁= +5.00×10⁻⁴C

q₂=-3.00×10⁻⁴C

d= distance = 4.00 m

V = velocity = 800 m/s

Total energy(E) =Kinetic energy+Potential energy

                      =\frac{1}{2} mv^2+ \frac{Kq_1q_2}{d}

                     =\frac{1}{2} \times 4.00\times 10^{-3}\times(800)^2 +\frac{9\times10^9\times 5\times10^{-4}\times(-3\times10^{-4})}{4}

                    =(1280-337.5)J

                    =942.5 J

Total energy of a system remains constant.

Therefore,

E =\frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{Kq_1q_2}{d}

\Rightarrow  942.5 = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times10^{-3} \times V^2 +\frac{9\times10^{9}\times5\times 10^{-4}\times(-3\times 10^{-4})}{0.2}

\Rightarrow 942.5 = 2\times10^{-3}v^2 -6750

\Rightarrow 2 \times10^{-3}\times v^2= 942.5+6750

\Rightarrow v^2 = \frac{7692.5}{2\times 10^{-3}}

\Rightarrow v= 1961.19   m/s

Therefore the speed of q₂ is 1961.19 m/s when it is 0.200 m from from q₁.

In which part of the ear is the sound wave converted into an electrical impulse?
user100 [1]
The Cochlea is filled with a fluid that moves in response to the vibrations from the oval window. As the fluid moves, 25,000 nerve endings are set into motion. These nerve endings transform the vibrations into electrical impulses that then travel along the eighth cranial nerve (auditory nerve) to the brain.

#2 A car accelerates from rest at 4 m/s^2. What is the velocity of the car after 4 second?
solmaris [256]
You use the equation Velocity = Acceleration X Time. 4x4=16m/s.


The car travels 18m in 3 seconds.

What evidence did wegener have to support his theory of plate tectonics?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Wegener first thought of this idea by noticing that the different large landmasses of the Earth almost fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. The continental shelf of the Americas fits closely to Africa and Europe, and other continents showed the same trend. Wegner also analyzed both sides of the Atlantic Ocean for rock type, geological structures and fossils and noticed that there was a significant similarity between matching sides of the continents, especially in fossil plants.
