Answer:

1-In a uniform electric field, the field lines are straight, parallel, and uniformly spaced this statement is true.

2-Electric field lines near positive point charges radiate outward. this statement is also true.

3-The electric force acting on a point charge is proportional to the magnitude of the point charge. this statement is true as well.

Explanation:

the electric field created by a point charge is defined by E=KQ/r^2 where k is constant, q is magnitude of charge and r is the distance away from the point charge so the electric filed is distance dependent and can not be constant at all distances.

electric field lines near a negative point charge are directed radially inward because negative charge attracts the field and is not clockwise.

Example of nuclear fission and nuclear fusion​
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

In fission, energy is gained by splitting apart heavy atoms, for example uranium, into smaller atoms such as iodine, caesium, strontium, xenon and barium, to name just a few. However, fusion is combining light atoms, for example two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, to form the heavier helium.

A sailboat weighing 980 lb with its occupants is running downwind at 8 mi/h when its spinnaker is raised to increase its speed.
Effectus [21]

Answer:

78.498N

Explanation:

The Net force provided by the spinnaker can be obtained from Newton's second law of motion as follows;

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{t}................(1)

where m is the mass, v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity and t is the time interval for which the force acted.

Given;

m =980lb

v = 12mi/h

u =8mi/hr

t = 10s.

It is important to convert all quantities to their SI units where necessary, so we do that as follows;

1lb = 0.45kg,

hence 980lb = 980 x 0.45kg = 441kg.

1mile = 1609.34m

1hour = 3600s,

therefore;

8mi/h=\frac{8*1609.34m}{3600s}=3.58m/s

12mi/h=\frac{12*1609.34m}{3600s}=5.36m/s

Substituting all values into equation (1), we obtain the following;

F=\frac{441(5.36-3.58)}{10}\\F=\frac{441*1.78}{10}\\F=\frac{784.98}{10}\\F=78.498N

A 1.31 kg object is attached to a horizontal spring of force constant 2.70 N/cm and is started oscillating by pulling it 6.20 cm
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

a) The change in energy is the difference between the final energy and the initial energy.

ΔE (energy change) = Ef (final energy) - Ei (initial energy)

\Delta E=\frac{1}{2}kA_f^2 -\frac{1}{2}kA_i^2\\\\k=force\ constant=2.7\ N/cm=270\ N/m, A_f=final\ dispalacment= 3.7\ cm=0.037\ m,\\ A_i=initial \ displacement = 6.2\ cm=0.062\ m\\\\Hence:\\\\\Delta E=\frac{1}{2}(270)(0.037)^2 -\frac{1}{2}(270)(0.062)^2\\\\\Delta E=-0.334 \ J

The negative sign shows that energy is lost to the environment. Hence 0.334 J is lost to the environment.

b) According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed but transformed from one form to another.

The oscillating object loses energy due to wind resistance, friction between the spring and the object. Given that the air is frictionless, hence the energy loss is due to friction which is converted to heat.
