A point charge q1 is held stationary at the origin. A second charge q2 is placed at point a, and the electric potential energy o

f the pair of charges is 5.4 x 10^-8J. When the second charge is moved to point b, the electric force on the charge does -1.9x10^-8J of work. What is the electric potential energy of the pair of charges when the second charge is at point b?

Answer:

U_{b}=+7.3*10^{-8}J

Explanation:

When a particle moves from a point where the potential energy is Ua to point where it is Ub,the change in potential energy is is equal to work done

So

W_{a-b}=U_{a}-U_{b}\\ U_{b}=U_{a}-W_{a-b}\\

Where Wa-b here is negative this means Ub is greater Ua. Therefore potential energy increases

So

U_{b}=(+5.4*10^{-8}J )-(-1.9*10^{-8}J)\\U_{b}=+7.3*10^{-8}J

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:magnitude -5; angle 160°

Explanation:

Vector A is described as having magnitude 5 and angle -20°.

To get an equivalent vector, we either leave the magnitude at 5 and add 360° to the angle, or we reverse the magnitude to -5 and add 180° to the angle.

5 @ -20° = 5 @ 340°

5 @ -20° = -5 @ 160°

The third one is the answer.

A suspended object A is attracted to a neutral wall. It's also attracted to a positively-charged object B. Which of the followin
olga2289 [7]

There are two particular cases, the first is when Object A is attracted to the neutral wall. This would indicate that the object is not neutral, as there is an attraction.

At the same time we know that Object A is attracted to an object B. And therefore, the load of A must be opposite to that of B. Remember that opposite charges attract each other. If the charge of object B is positive, then the charge of object A will be negative.

Option B is correct: It has a negative charge.
