Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

As you said you already know, energy cannot be created or destroyed.

Explanation:

You cannot gain energy or lose energy, it can only be converted. So if you start on a 3m high hill and go down it, your potential energy is equal to mgh, and if you get to the bottom of the hill, your KE would be equal to your PE at the top, and when you start going up another hill again, the maximum height you can reach is 3m, because energy cannot be created or destroyed, and your mass and gravitational acceleration are the same, so therefore you can only reach the same height you started from due to the conservation of energy.

Four +2 μC charges are placed at the positions (10 cm, 0 cm), (−10 cm, 0 cm), (0 cm, 10 cm), and (0 cm, −10 cm) such that they f
mylen [45]

Answer:

The force will be zero

Explanation:

Due to the symmetric location of the +2μC charges the forces the excert over the +5μC charge will cancel each other resulting in a net force with a magnitude of zero.However in this case it would be an unstable equilibrium, very vulnerable to a kind of bucking. If the central charge is not perfectly centered on the vertical axis the forces will have components in that axis that will add together instead of canceling each other.
