A positive point charge Q is fixed on a very large horizontal frictionless tabletop. A second positive point charge q is release

d from rest near the stationary charge and is free to move. Which statement best describes the motion of q after it is released? A) Its speed will be greatest just after it is released. B) As it moves farther and farther from Q, its speed will decrease. C) As it moves farther and farther from Q, its speed will keep increasing. D) Its acceleration is zero just after it is released. E) As it moves farther and farther from Q, its acceleration will keep increasing.

Explanation:

A positive point charge Q is fixed on a very large horizontal friction less tabletop. A second positive point charge q is released from rest near the stationary charge and is free to move.

As per the law of conservation of energy the change in kinetic energy is equal to the change in potential energy.

The mathematical expression for the conservation of energy is given by :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=-k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r_2^2}-(-k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r_1^2})

On solving the above equation, we get the value of v as :

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2kq_1q_2}{m}(\dfrac{1}{r_1^2}-\dfrac{1}{r_2^2})}

In the above expression, as the term (\dfrac{1}{r_1^2}-\dfrac{1}{r_2^2}) increase, as r_2 increases, the value of \dfrac{1}{r_2} decreases. So, the correct option is (B) "As it moves farther and farther from Q, its speed will increase".

Energy is observed in two basic forms: potential and kinetic. Which of the following correctly matches these forms with a source
Travka [436]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C

Kinetic energy is the energy which is due to the motion of body.

Potential energy is the energy due to virtue of position of the object.

option A is not true because potential energy is due the position of the body

Option B should be the potential energy not kinetic energy.;

Option D is motion of individual molecule leads to kinetic energy not potential energy.

So, the correct answer is option is the covalent bonds of a sugar molecule is potential energy because of the position of bond.

Explain how you find the density of a liquid subtance example corn syrup
STatiana [176]
Use the density formula:

Mass of the substance
————————————
Volume of the substance

This gives you the density.


Corn syrup has a density of about 1.4 grams per cubic centimeter, and has the highest density of all liquids!

Hope this helps!
