Hello!

Answer:

2000 J

Explanation

Work equation is expressed as:

W=F.d.Cos \alpha

Where:

F: Applied force
d: traveled distance
α: Angle between the direction of the force and the direction of the movement. (in this case, both of the direction are the same, so the angle is 0°)

By substituting:

F=1000N.2m.Cos(0)=2000N.m=2000 J

Have a nice day!

A charge of 7.2 × 10-5 C is placed in an electric field with a strength of 4.8 × 105 StartFraction N over C EndFraction. If the
barxatty [35]

Answer:

2.2 meters

Explanation:

Potential energy, PE created by a charge, q at a radius r from the charge source, Q,  is expressed as:

KE=\frac{kQq}{r}\     \ \ \ \ \ \ ...i

k is Coulomb's constant.

#The electric field,E at radius r is expressed as:

E=\frac{kQ}{r^2}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ ...ii

From i and ii, we have:

KE=Eqr

r=(KE)/Eq

#Substitute actual values in our equation:

r=\frac{75J}{(7.2\times 10^{-5}C)(4.8\times 10^5 V/m)}\\\\=2.1701\approx2.2\ m

Hence, the distance between the charge and the source of the electric field is 2.2 meters

Positive charge Q is placed on a conducting spherical shell with inner radius R1 and outer radius R2. The electric field at a po
gregori [183]

Answer:

E = 0    r <R₁

Explanation:

If we use Gauss's law

      Ф = ∫ E. dA = q_{int} / ε₀

in this case the charge is distributed throughout the spherical shell and as we are asked for the field for a radius smaller than the radius of the spherical shell, therefore, THERE ARE NO CHARGES INSIDE this surface.

Consequently by Gauss's law the electric field is ZERO

           E = 0    r <R₁

Celina has a water sample that’s contaminated with salt and microorganisms. Which method should she use to purify the water?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Celina should perform the following method to get pure water:

Boil the water in a pan, as the water boils it changes into gas (water vapours) these vapours should be cooled down through the process of condensation which changes gas into liquid form, Through this process germs would be killed due to high temperature and the salt will remain in the pan as salt has higher boiling point than water,
