Answer:

The electric potential at the midpoint between the two particles is 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts

Explanation:

Electric potential is given as;

V = E*r

where;

E is the electric field strength, = kq/r²

V = ( kq/r²)*r

V = kq/r

k is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

q is the charge of the particles = 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

r is the distance between the particles = 859 nm

At midpoint, the distance = r/2 = 859nm/2 = 429.5 nm

V = (8.99 X 10⁹  * 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹)/ (429.5 X 10⁻⁹)

V = 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts

Therefore, the electric potential at the midpoint between the two particles is 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

83.3kg

Explanation:

GPE = m × g × h

GPE = mass of leopard × 10 × 36m

29988J = 360 × mass

mass = 83.3kg

Which statement is true regarding flexibility? A. joint's range of motion cannot be maintained with age. b.A joint's range of mo
Alex777 [14]
<span>the statement that is true regarding flexibility is : b. a joint's range of motion will be lost if the joint is not used regularly. Our body is like a machine. If we not constantly heat it up, our body will be more prone to injury. We can see that the old people who lived within the tribe in the middle of the mountain are far stronger than the one who lived in the city.</span>

Which formulas have been correctly rearranged to solve for radius? Check all that apply. r = GM central/v^2 r =fcm/v^2 r =ac/v^2
jek_recluse [69]

The orbital radius is: r=\frac{GM}{v^2}

Explanation:

The problem is asking to find the radius of the orbit of a satellite around a planet, given the orbital speed of the satellite.

For a satellite in orbit around a planet, the gravitational force provides the required centripetal force to keep it in circular motion, therefore we can write:

\frac{GMm}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

m is the mass of the satellite

r is the radius of the orbit

v is the speed of the satellite

Re-arranging the equation, we find:

\frac{GM}{r}=v^2\\r=\frac{GM}{v^2}
