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

Consider a uniform electric field of 50 N/C directed toward the east. If the voltage measured relative to ground at a given poin
qaws [65]

Answer:

30 V

Explanation:

Given that:

The uniform electric field = 50 N/C

Voltage = 80 V

distance = 1.0 m

The potential difference of the electric field = Δ V

E_d = V₁ - V₂

50 × 1 = 80V - V₂

50 - 80 V = - V₂

-30 V = - V₂

V₂ = 30 V

A current of 9 A flows through an electric device with a resistance of 43 Ω. What must be the applied voltage in this particular
NeTakaya
Answer:
387 volts

Explanation:
Ohm's law is used to relate voltage, current and resistance.
The formula is as follows:V = I * R
where:
V is the applied voltage (measured in volts)
I is the current flowing (measured in amperes)
R is the resistance (measured in ohm)

In the given, we have:
current (I) = 9 amperes
resistance (R) = 43 ohm

Substitute with the givens in the above formula to get the voltage as follows:
V = 9 * 43
V = 387 volts

Hope this helps :)

What is the difference between a negative feedback system and a positive feedback system?
Anni [7]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The negative feedback is responsible for maintaining equilibrium (stability) in a system as it lessens effects, which is contrary to positive feedback which increases reaction and moves a system further away from equilibrium (stability), It does so by amplifying the effects of a product or event and occurs when something needs to happen quickly. e.g

  • Insulin lowers down blood sugar levels, so when the body detects that it has too much sugar, the pancreas is prompted to release insulin and only stops when balance is achieved; hence, negative feedback.  
  •  When there is a tear on the skin, a chemical is released. This chemical causes platelets in the blood to activate, hence they release a chemical which signals more platelets to activate, until the wound is clotted, positive feedback.
