The work done by the electric field in moving a charge is the negative of the potential energy difference between the two locations, which is the product between the magnitude of the charge q and the potential difference \Delta V:
W=-\Delta U=-q\Delta V=-q (V_f -V_i)
The proton charge is q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C, and the two locations have potential of V_i = +145 V and V_f=-55 V, therefore the work is
W=-(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(-55 V-(+145 V))=3.2 \cdot 10^{-17}J

A 0.90-kg falcon is diving at 28.0 m/s at a downward angle of 35° . It catches a 0.325-kg pigeon from behind in midair. What is
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

22.11 m / s

Explanation:

The falcon catches the prey from behind means both are flying in the same direction ( suppose towards the left )

initial velocity of falcon = 28 cos 35 i - 28 sin 35 j  

( falcon was flying in south east direction making 35 degree from the east )

momentum = .9 ( 28 cos 35 i - 28 sin 35 j  )

= 20.64 i - 14.45 j

initial velocity of pigeon

= 7 i

initial momentum = .325 x 7i

= 2.275 i

If final velocity of composite mass of falcon and pigeon be V

Applying law of conservation of momentum

( .9 + .325) V = 20.64 i - 14.45 j +2.275 i

V = ( 22.915 i - 14.45 j ) / 1.225

= 18.70 i - 11.8 j

magnitude of V

= √ [  (18.7 )² + ( 11.8 )²]

= 22.11 m / s

An office building has a 24-volt branch circuit installed for landscape lighting around the front of the building. The circuit w
Arturiano [62]

The circuit was installed in UF cable which requires a minimum burial depth of 6 inches for this circuit.

<h3>UF cable</h3>

UF cable is used as an underground feeder cable to distribute power from an existing building to outdoor equipment. UF cable can also be used as direct burial cable.

For the 24-volt branch circuit installed, the minimum burial depth will be 6 inches.

Thus, the circuit was installed in UF cable which requires a minimum burial depth of 6 inches for this circuit.

An object is placed to the left of a convex mirror, such that the object-to-image distance is 140 cm.
labwork [276]

Answer:

The focal length of the mirror is 52.5 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Object to Image distance d = 140 cm

Image distance v= 35 cm

We need to calculate the object distance

u = d-v

u = 140-35=105\ cm

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of mirror

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{-105}+\dfrac{1}{35}

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{2}{105}

f=52.5\ cm

Hence, The focal length of the mirror is 52.5 cm.
