The electric potential at the origin of the xy coordinate system is negative infinity
<h3>What is the electric field due to the 4.0 μC charge?</h3>
The electric field due to the 4.0 μC charge is E = kq/r² where
- k = electric constant = 9.0 × 10 Nm²/C²,
- q = 4.0 μC = 4.0 × 10 C and
- r = distance of charge from origin = x₁ - 0 = 2.0 m - 0 m = 2.0 m
<h3>What is the electric field due to the -4.0 μC charge?</h3>
The electric field due to the -4.0 μC charge is E = kq'/r² where
- k = electric constant = 9.0 × 10 Nm²/C²,
- q' = -4.0 μC = -4.0 × 10 C and
- r = distance of charge from origin = 0 - x₂ = 0 - (-2.0 m) = 0 m + 2.0 m = 2.0 m
Since both electric fields are equal in magnitude and directed along the negative x-axis, the net electric field at the origin is
E" = E + E'
= -2E
= -2kq/r²
<h3>What is the electric potential at the origin?</h3>
So, the electric potential at the origin is V = -∫₂⁰E".dr
= -∫₂⁰-2kq/r².dr
Since E and dr = dx are parallel and r = x, we have
= -∫₂⁰-2kqdxcos0/x²
= 2kq∫₂⁰dx/x²
= 2kq[-1/x]₂⁰
= -2kq[1/x]₂⁰
= -2kq[1/0 - 1/2]
= -2kq[∞ - 1/2]
= -2kq[∞]
= -∞
So, the electric potential at the origin of the xy coordinate system is negative infinity

in a one dimensional collision, a 4kg object with 5ms^1 and 6 kg object with 2ms^1 have initial velocity, the magnitude of impulse is 12 , 18
given,
mass 1 = 4kg
mass 2 = 6kg
velocity 1 = 5ms^1
velocity 2 = 2ms^1
impulse 1 = 4*(5-2)
= 12
Impulse 2 = 6*(5-2)
= 18

Answer:
It will have aim at a point "below" the insect.
From the insect's point of view, the fish will appear to be shallower than it actually is because a ray of light from the insect to the fish will be bent "towards" the normal when the ray enters the water
