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.

Lelechka [254]

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

Kinetic energy.
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.

The graph below shows the energy sources used to generate electricity in the United States.

DedPeter [7]

The correct answer is - D. 1 percent.

The United States are the biggest consumer of electricity in the world. Because of that the United States are using multiple different sources in order to satisfy the demand for the electricity. The solar energy though accounts for only 1% of the total amount of produced electricity in the country and that is concerning. The biggest concern of course is the environmental one as the majority of the electricity is produced by sources that are polluting the environment. The other concern is that the United States are not using their potential in gaining more electricity from the solar radiation when taken in account that they have very large areas in the country that have a lot of intense solar radiation and clear skies throughout most of the year.
