Water at the top of Iagara Falls possesses gravitational potential energy
because of its height, and kinetic energy because of its motion. 

A lot of this energy is tapped off of the stream as the water falls, and is
used to generate electrical energy.

180-ft = about 54.9 meters

1 kilogram (1 liter) of water loses about

                     (1 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (54.9 m)

                 =      about 538 joules of potential energy,
                         while falling from the top of Iagara Falls
                         to the pool at the bottom.

zlopas [31]
The sound wave would behave differently in a swimming pool than in his bedroom because sound waves travel faster in more dense mediums; such as water. The wave will travel faster in water, and slower in air.

In the diagram, q1 = -6.39*10^-9 C and q2 = +3.22*10^-9 C. What is the electric field at point P? pls help
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

First draw the vectors that represent both electric fields.

E1 is the elictric field created by q1, E2 is the one created by q2.

● q1 is negative so E1 will point from P.

● q2 is positive so E2 will point out of P

(Picture below)

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

The resulting electric field is equal to the sum of the two fields since both vectors are colinear.

Let E be the total field.

● E = E1 + E2

The formula of the electric field intensity is:

● E = K ×(q/d^2)

-K is Coulomb's constant

-d is the distance between the charge and the object ( here P)

-q is the charge

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● E1 = K × (q1/d1^2)

The distance between q1 and P is the qum of 0.15 m 0.25 m. (0.4 m)

Coulombs constant is 9×10^9 m^2/C^2

● E1 = 9×10^9 ×[-6.39 × 10^(-9)/ 0.4^2]

● E1 = -359.43 N/C

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● E2 = K ×(q2/d^2)

The distance between q2 and P is 0.25 m.

● E2 = 9×10^9×[3.22×10^(-9) /0.25^2]

● E2 = 463.68 N/C

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● E = E1 + E2

● E = -359.43+463.68

● E = 105.25 N/C

When using the right-hand rule to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a charge, which part of the hand points in the direction that the charge is moving? The answer is <span>thumb.

</span>One way to remember this is that there is one velocity, represented accordingly by the thumb. There are many field lines, represented accordingly by the fingers. The force is in the direction you would push with your palm. The force on a negative charge is in exactly the opposite direction to that on a positive charge. Because the force is always perpendicular to the velocity vector, a pure magnetic field will not accelerate a charged particle in a single direction, however will produce circular or helical motion (a concept explored in more detail in future sections). It is important to note that magnetic field will not exert a force on a static electric charge. These two observations are in keeping with the rule that <span>magnetic fields do no </span>work<span>.</span>

If no heat is lost to the surroundings, how much heat must be added to raise the temperature from 20.0 ∘C to 85.0 ∘C ?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Explanation:

C_{water} = 4190 J/kg.K

C_{Al} = 910 J/Kg. K

m_{Al} = 1.50 kg

m_{water} = 1.80 kg

Q_{added} = Q_{Al} + Q_{water}

=m_{Al} C_{Al}ΔT + m_{water} C_{water}ΔT

= (1.50)(910)(85.0-20)+(1.80)(4190)(85.0-20)

= 578,955 J

= 579 kJ
