Answer:

B) it is dependent on the value of the charge and its position

Explanation:

As we know that electrostatic potential energy is given by the formula

$U = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r}$

here we know that electric potential due to one charge on the position of other charge is given by the equation

$V = \frac{kq_1}{r}$

so potential energy can be given by the formula

$U = q_2 V$

so here potential of a given position will be different so it is dependent on the position of charge

also potential energy depends on the magnitude of charge

so correct answer will be

B) it is dependent on the value of the charge and its position

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

They were produced by stars that lived and died before our solar system was born.

Explanation:

According to what it's understood today, all elements heavier than hydrogen (including helium and excluding some that were created in laboratories) are created through nuclear fusion in the core of stars.

They start fusing hydrogen into helium, then as the star grows older helium is fused into beryllium and so on for all the periodic table.

So as far as science understands it today it's a literal truth that we are made of stars. (as almost everything else)

How do you do this question?

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of each disk is:

Idisk = 1/2 MR²

Using parallel axis theorem, the moment of inertia of each rod is:

Irod = 1/2 mr² + m (R − r)²

The total moment of inertia is:

I = 2Idisk + 5Irod

I = 2 (1/2 MR²) + 5 [1/2 mr² + m (R − r)²]

I = MR² + 5/2 mr² + 5m (R − r)²

Plugging in values:

I = (125 g) (5 cm)² + 5/2 (250 g) (1 cm)² + 5 (250 g) (5 cm − 1 cm)²

I = 23,750 g cm²

A glass capillary tube with a diameter of 8.5 mm and length 8 cm is filled with a salt solution with a resistivity of 2.5 ?m. Wh

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The resistance is $3.5\times10^{-4}\ \Omega$

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter of tube = 8.5 mm

Length = 8 cm

Resistivity = 2.5 m

We need to calculate the resistance

The resistance is equal to the product of the resistivity and length divided by the area of cross section .

In mathematical form,

$R = \dfrac{\rho\times l}{A}$

Where, $\rho$ =resistivity

l = length

A = area of cross section

Put the value into the formula

$R = \dfrac{2.5\times8\times10^{-2}}{3.14\times(\dfrac{8.5}{2}\times10^{-3})^2}$

$R=3526.32\ \Omega$

$R=3.5\times10^{-4}\ \Omega$

Hence, The resistance is $3.5\times10^{-4}\ \Omega$

An object moving at a constant speed of 25 m/s is making a turn with a radius of curvature of 7 m (this is the radius of the "ki

prisoha [69]

Answer:

- 278.34 kg m/s^2

Explanation:

The rate of the change of momentum is the same as the force.

The force that an object feels when moviming in a circular motion is given by:

F = -mrω^2

Where ω is the angular speed and r is the radius of the circumference

Aditionally, the tangential velocity of the body is given as:

v = rω

The question tells us that

v = 25 m/s

r = 7m

mv = 78 kg m/s

Therefore:

m = (78 kg m/s) / (25 m/s) = 3.12 kg

ω = (25 m/s) / (7 m) = 3.57 (1/s)

Now, we can calculate the force or rate of change of momentum:

F = - (3.12 kg) (7 m)(3.57 (1/s))^2

F = - 278.34 kg m/s^2
