Newtons 3rd law of motion states that action and reaction are equal and opposite. It applies in this statement is that when you jump straight upward you hit the floor and then you experience an equal magnitude of force against your feet,because force always acts as a result of 2 objects and whenever forces occur they do so in pairs of equal magnitude acting in opposite directions.

Compare and contrast electric potential energy and electric potential difference? Explain.

forsale [732]

Answer:

Electric Potential Energy:

The energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric firld is called Electric Potential Energy

Electric Potential Difference:

The amount of work done in carrying a unit charge from one point to an other in an electric field is called Electric Potential Difference.

Relation:

Relation between Electric potential and electrical potential energy is given by

$\delta V=\frac{PE}{q}$

Here PE represents Electric potential energy

and $\delta V$ is Electric potential difference

it means electric potential difference is the difference in electric potential energy divided by the charge.

How much time does it take a person to walk 12km north at the velocity at a velocity of 6.5 km/hrs?

alukav5142 [94]

"6.5 km/hr" is not a velocity. It's just a speed, so
we don't know what direction he's walking.

If he happens to be walking north, then it takes him

(12 km) / (6.5 km/hr) = 1.846... hours (rounded) .

If he's walking in any other direction, it takes him longer than that.

If the angle between north and the direction he's walking is
90 degrees or more, then he can never cover any northward
distance, no matter how long he walks.
