Answer:

Potential\ Energy=Work \ Done=2.301*10^{-18} J

Work  done to bring three electrons from a great distance apart to 3.0×10−10 m from one another (at the corners of an equilateral triangle) is 2.301*10^{-18} Joules

Explanation:

The potential energy is given by:

U=Q*V

where:

Q is the charge

V is the potential difference

Potential Difference=V=\frac{kq}{r}

So,

Potential\ Energy=\frac{Qkq}{r} \\Q=q\\Potential\ Energy=\frac{kq^2}{r}

Where:

k is Coulomb Constant=8.99*10^9 Nm^2/C^2

q is the charge on electron=-1.6*10^-19 C

r is the distance=3.0*10^{-10}m

For 3 Electrons Potential Energy or work Done is:

Potential\ Energy=3*\frac{kq^2}{r}

Potential\ Energy=3*\frac{(8.99*10^9)(-1.6*10^{-19})^2}{3*10^{-10}}\\Potential\ Energy=2.301*10^{-18} J

Work  done to bring three electrons from a great distance apart to 3.0×10−10 m from one another (at the corners of an equilateral triangle) is 2.301*10^{-18} Joules

The sun’s___and the planet’s___keeps planets moving is___orbits.
Sauron [17]

The sun’s gravitational attraction and the planet’s inertia keeps planets moving is circular orbits.

Explanation:

The planets in the Solar System move around the Sun in a circular orbit. This motion can be explained as a combination of two effects:

1) The gravitational attraction of the Sun. The Sun exerts a force of gravitational attraction on every planet. This force is directed towards the Sun, and its magnitude is

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the Sun

m is the mass of the planet

r is the distance between the Sun and the planet

This force acts as centripetal force, continuously "pulling" the planet towards the centre of its circular orbit.

2) The inertia of the planet. In fact, according to Newton's first law, an object in motion at constant velocity will continue moving at its velocity, unless acted upon an external unbalanced force. Therefore, the planet tends to continue its motion in a straight line (tangential to the circular orbit), however it turns in a circle due to the presence of the gravitational attraction of the Sun.

A 2-kg box is pushed by a force of 4 N for 2 seconds. It has an initial velocity vo = 2 m/s to the right. NOTE: Since this probl
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Kf= 36 J

W(net) = 32 J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 2 kg

F= 4 N

t= 2 s

Initial velocity ,u= 2 m/s

We know that rate of change of linear momentum is called force.

F= dP/dt

F.t = ΔP

ΔP = Pf - Pi

ΔP = m v  - m u

v= Final velocity

By putting the values

4 x 2 = 2 ( v - 2)

8 =  2 ( v - 2)

4 = v - 2

v= 6 m/s

The final kinetic energy Kf

Kf= 1/2 m v²

Kf= 0.5 x 2 x 6²

Kf= 36 J

Initial kinetic energy Ki

Ki = 1/2 m u²

Ki= 0.5 x 2 x 2²

Ki = 4 J

We know that net work is equal to the change in kinetic energy

W(net) = Kf - Ki

W(net) = 36 - 4

W(net) = 32 J
