J

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of an object or system is given by:

E

m

e

c

h

=

K

+

U

Where

K

is the kinetic energy of the object and

U

is the potential energy of the object. The carriage, sitting motionless at the top of the hill, has only potential energy in the form of gravitational potential energy.

Gravitational potential energy is given by:

U

g

=

m

g

h

Where

m

is the mass of the object,

g

is the gravitational acceleration constant, and

h

is the height of the object above some specific reference point, in this case the ground

m

below.

The weight of a stationary object at the surface of the earth is equal to the force of gravity acting on the object.

Point charges of 21.0 μC and 47.0 μC are placed 0.500 m apart. (a) At what point (in m) along the line connecting them is the el
rewona [7]

Answer:

a) x = 0.200 m

b)E = 3.84*10^{-4} N/C

Explanation:

q_1 = 21.0\mu C

q_1 = 47.0\mu C

DISTANCE BETWEEN BOTH POINT CHARGE = 0.5 m

by relation for electric field we have following relation

E = \frac{kq}{x}^2

according to question E = 0

FROM FIGURE

x is the distance from left point charge where electric field is zero

\frac{k21}{x}^2 = \frac{k47}{0.5-x}^2

solving for x we get

\frac{0.5}{x} = 1+ \sqrt{\frac{47}{21}}

x = 0.200 m

b)electric field at half way mean x =0.25

E =\frac{k*21*10^{-6}}{0.25^2} -\frac{k*47*10^{-6}}{0.25^2}

E = 3.84*10^{-4} N/C

A compound consisting of only phosphorous and oxygen atoms is 43.64 % phosphorus by mass.The molecular mass/formula weight of th
DanielleElmas [232]
First, we calculate the mass of Phosphorous present:
283.88 x 0.4364
= 123.88 amu
Atomic mass of P is 31 amu

moles of P = mass / Ar
= 123.88 / 31
= 4.0 moles

We know that one mole of substance has 6.02 x 10²³ particles
Atoms of P = 4 x 6.02 x 10²³ 
= 2.41 x 10²⁴ atoms
