Answer: The electrostatic potential energy of a particle with a 1− charge separated by 200 pm from a particle with a 1+ charge.

Explanation:  

The formula for the electrostatic potential energy is as follows;

U=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}

Here, U is the potential energy,q_{1},q_{2} are the charges and r is the distance between them.

Here,k=\frac{1}{4\pi(\epsilon _{0})}

epsilon _{0} is the absolute permittivity of free space.

Calculate the electrostatic potential energy of a particle with a 1− charge separated by 100 pm from a particle with a 3+ charge.  

U=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}

Put q_{1}=-1, q_{2}=+3,k=k=9\times 10^{9} and r=100 pm.

U=\frac{k(1)(3)}{100 pm}

U=-k0.03

Calculate the electrostatic potential energy of a particle with a 1− charge separated by 100 pm from a particle with a 2+ charge.

U=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}

Put q_{1}=-1, q_{2}=+2 and r=100 pm.

U=\frac{k(-1)(+2)}{100 pm}

U=-k0.02    

Calculate the electrostatic potential energy of a particle with a 1− charge separated by 200 pm from a particle with a 1+ charge.

U=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}

Put q_{1}=-1, q_{2}=+1 and r=200 pm.

U=\frac{k(-1)(+1)}{200 pm}

U=-k0.005  

Therefore, the electrostatic potential energy of a particle with a 1− charge separated by 200 pm from a particle with a 1+ charge.

Coulombs law says that the force between any two charges depends on the amount of charges and distance between them. This force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the two charges and inversely proportional to the distance between them.

F=k\frac{|q_1| |q_2|}{r^2}

where q_1\hspace{1mm}and\hspace{1mm}q_2 are charges, r is the distance between them and k is the coulomb constant.

case 1:

q_1=-e\\ q_2=+3e\\ r=100pm\\ \Rightarrow F=k\frac{|-e||3e|}{(100pm)^2}=3ke^2\times10^8

case 2

q_1=-e\\ q_2=+2e\\ r=100pm\\ \Rightarrow F=k\frac{|-e||2e|}{(100pm)^2}=2ke^2\times10^8

case 3:

q_1=-e\\ q_2=+e\\ r=100pm\\ \Rightarrow F=k\frac{|-e||e|}{(200pm)^2}=0.25ke^2\times10^8

Comparing the 3 cases:

The maximum potential force according to coulombs law is between -1 charge and +3 charge separated by a distance of 100 pm.

Two 10 kg pucks head straight towards each other with velocities of 10 m/s and -20 m/s. They collide and stick together. Calcula
RUDIKE [14]

The final velocity of the two pucks is -5 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum.

In fact, in absence of external force, the total momentum of the two pucks before and after the collision must be conserved - so we can write:

m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1 +m_2)v

where

m_1 = m_2 = m = 10 kg is the mass of each puck

u_1 = 10 m/s is the initial velocity of the 1st puck

u_2 = -20 m/s is the initial velocity of the 2nd puck

v is the final velocity of the two pucks sticking together

Re-arranging the equation and solving for v, we find:

mu_1 + mu_2 = (m+m)v\\u_1 + u_2 = 2v\\v=\frac{u_1+u_2}{2}=\frac{10-20}{2}=-5 m/s

Ugo [173]

Answer:

+1 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration is given by

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta v is the change in velocity

\Delta t is the time interval in which the change in velocity occurs

To find the acceleration at 1 second, we can take the data at t = 1 s and t = 2. We find:

\Delta t = -3 -(-4) = 1 s

\Delta v = 2 - (1) = +1 m/s

So, the acceleration is

a=\frac{+1}{1}=+1 m/s^2

Alan and Monica tested how fertilizer X affected the growth of a plant. Alan and Monica put 100 grams of fertilizer X in pot 1.
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

D.

a control group

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment such as the one above, there is an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group is the group that receives the treatment while the control group does not receive any treatment. The control group helps the researcher to observe if the treatment had any significant effect.

In this case, it will help Alan and Monica to determine if fertilizer X actually had an effect on the plant. Therefore, the pot with o grams of fertilizer in it is the control group.
