Points a and b lie in a region where the y-component of the electric field is Ey=α+β/y2. The constants in this expression have t

he values α = 600 N/C and β = 5.00 N⋅m2/C. Points a and b are on the y-axis. .
Point a is at y = 2.00 cm and point b is at y = 3.00 cm. What is the potential difference Va−Vb between these two points.?

Answer:

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined by

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E .ds

In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds

We substitute

         V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy

We integrate

          V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y

We evaluate between the lower limit A  2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m

           V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33

            V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V

As they ask us the reverse case

             V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}

             V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 2.5kg object that is 300m above the surface of the earth? g=10m/s
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

7350 J

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy: This is defined as the energy possessed by a body due to it's position in the gravitational field. The S.I unit is Joules(J).

Applying,

E.p = mgh..................... Equation 1

Where E.p = Gravitational potential Energy, m = mass of the object, h = height of the object above the surface of the earth, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 2.5 kg, h = 300 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

E.p = 2.5(300)(9.8)

E.p = 7350 J.

Please help! I have another part to this too.
JulsSmile [24]

first one is true, there's no net force acting on it thats greater than another or making it unbalanced, if there was the object would be in some kind of motion

All scientist use meters, that way scientist can share information across country without needing to convert the data.

How far did a frog jump if he travels at a rate of 2.1 m/s for 10 seconds?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

21 m

Explanation:

The motion of the frog is a uniform motion (constant speed), therefore we can find the distance travelled by using

d=vt

where

d is the distance covered

v is the speed

t is the time

The frog in this problem has a speed of

v = 2.1 m/s

and therefore, after t = 10 s, the distance it covered is

d=(2.1)(10)=21 m
