Answer:

The distance separating the two particles when the moving particle is momentarily stopped is 0.947 m

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge = 40 μC

Second charge = 80 μC

Distance between the two particles = 2.0 m

Kinetic energy = 16 J

We need to calculate the distance separating the two particles when the moving particle is momentarily stopped

Using conservation of energy

K.E+\dfrac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{d}=\dfrac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{x}+K.E

Put the value into the formula

16+\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times40\times10^{-6}\times80\times10^{-6}}{2}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times40\times10^{-6}\times80\times10^{-6}}{x}+0

16+14.4=\dfrac{28.8}{x}

30.4x=28.8

x=\dfrac{28.8}{30.4}

x=0.947\ m

Hence, The distance separating the two particles when the moving particle is momentarily stopped is 0.947 m

1. James drives 400 km in 5 hours to his grandmothers. What are the units for speed going to be?
Airida [17]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

1. Speed is calculated as the ratio of distance and time. Hence, Jame's speed can be calculated as:

       400/5 km/hr = 80 km/hr

The unit for the speed would be km/hr. This can also be converted to m/s:

80 km = 80,000 m

1 hr = 3,600 s

80 km/hr = 80,000/3600 m/s = 22.22 m/s

2. Since James drove 400 km in 5 hours, the distance he drove is 400 km.

3. The time it took for James to get there is 5 hours.

Can someone please help me with science.

Answer:

The answers to your questions are given below

Explanation:

22. The energy of an electromagnetic wave and it's frequency are related by the following equation:

E = hf

Where:

E => is the energy

h => is the Planck's constant

f => is the frequency

From the equation i.e E = hf, we can conclude that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to it's frequency. This implies that an increase in the frequency of the wave will lead to an increase in the energy of the wave and also, a decrease in the frequency will lead to a decrease in the energy of the wave.

23. Gamma ray and radio wave are both electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves has a constant speed of 3×10⁸ m/s in space.

Thus, gamma ray and radio wave have the same speed in space.

Farmer Tamar airlifted her sheep from 1000 meters to 1,200 meters
attashe74 [19]

Question

What was the change in potential energy of the sheep?

Answer:

1962(m) J

Explanation:

Potential energy is given by

PE=mgh

Change in potential energy is given by

∆PE=mg(h2-h1)

Where ∆PE is the change in potential eneegy, g is acceleration due to gravity, h2 is final height and h1 is the initial height.

Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g, 1200 m for h2 and 1000 m for h1 then

∆PE=m*9.81(1200-1000)=1962m Joules

Since we are not given the mass of rhe sheep, the answer will be 1962(m) Joules
