Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y
Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below
V = kq/y
Where k = 1/4πε0
Where V = electric potential,
k = electric constant = 9×10^9,
y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space
q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c
From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.
We have that
V = k/y
We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).
This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.
This fact makes option 1 the correct answer
"Frequency" just means "often-ness" ... how often something happens.
It's always expressed as
<em>(number of happenings) / (some period of time) .</em>
So first things first its c. because when two plates collide it causes a earthquake so u can rule those out and of course no not volcano so that's it u only have c left as your answer choice.
