A particle (charge = +0.8 mC) moving in a region where only electric forces act on it has a kinetic energy of 6.7 J at point A.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the particle as it moves through point B is 7.9 J.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the particle is:

\Delta K = \Delta E_{p} = q\Delta V

<u>Where</u>:

K: is the kinetic energy

E_{p}: is the potential energy

q: is the particle's charge = 0.8 mC

ΔV: is the electric potential = 1.5 kV                                    

\Delta K = q \Delta V= 0.8 \cdot 10^{-3} C*1.5 \cdot 10^{3} V = 1.2 J

Now, the kinetic energy of the particle as it moves through point B is:

\Delta K = K_{f} - K_{i}

K_{f} = \Delta K + K_{i} = 1.2 J + 6.7 J = 7.9 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the particle as it moves through point B is 7.9 J.

I hope it helps you!

A train travels 200km/hr. how much distance will the train be from the station in 2.5 hours?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

500km

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed  = 200km/hr

Time taken  = 2.5hrs

Unknown:

Distance  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the speed, time and distance equation.

   Therefore;

  Distance  = Speed x time

So;

  Distance  = 200 x 2.5  = 500km

A 3.0-kg cart is rolling across a frictionless, horizontal track toward a 1.3-kg cart that is held initially at rest. The carts
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Momentum of first cart = mass x velocity

= 3 x 4.6 =+13.8 kg m /s

Momentum of second cart = 1.3 x - 1.9 = - 2.47 kg m /s

Total momentum = 13.8 - 2.47

= +11.33 kg m /s

b )

Let the velocity of first cart be v at the moment when second cart was at rest

total momentum = 3 x v + 0 = 3 v

Applying conservation of momentum law

3 v  = +11.33

v = +3.77 m /s
