1 answer:

7 0

Radiation is the emission of energy as electromagnetic waves or as moving subatomic particles, especially high-energy particles that cause ionization.
Or, Radiation is the energy transmitted by heat, light, electricity, etc. However, your question term is convection.

Which of the following is an example of energy changing from one form to another?

Anastaziya [24]

The correct option is

a fire

In fact, a fire is a conversion of chemical energy (contained in the molecules of the initial substances) into thermal energy (the heat released by the fire itself), therefore this is an example of energy changing from one form to another. All the other objects, instead, do not represent any form of energy conversion.

The attractive electrostatic force between the point charges +8.44 ✕ 10-6 and q has a magnitude of 0.961 n when the separation b

d1i1m1o1n [39]

The electrostatic force between two charges Q1 and q is given by
$F=k_e \frac{Q_1 q}{r^2}$
where
ke is the Coulomb's constant
Q1 is the first charge
q is the second charge
r is the distance between the two charges

Re-arranging the formula, we have
$q= \frac{F r^2}{k_e Q_1}$
and since we know the value of the force F, of the charge Q1 and the distance r between the two charges, we can calculate the value of q:
$q= \frac{(0.961 N)(0.67 m)^2}{(8.99 \cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2})(+8.44\cdot 10^{-6}C)}=5.69 \cdot 10^{-6} C$

And since the force is attractive, the two charges must have opposite sign, so the charge q must have negative sign.
