A uniform electric field, with a magnitude of 370 N/C, is directed parallel to the positive x-axis. If the electric potential at

dem82 [27]

Answer:

$\Delta U = 0.2072 J$

Explanation:

Potential difference between two points in constant electric field is given by the formula

$\Delta V = E.\Delta x$

here we know that

$E = 370 N/C$

also we know that

$\Delta x = 2.1 - 1.9 = 0.2 m$

now we have

$\Delta V = 370 (0.2) = 74 V$

now change in potential energy is given as

$\Delta U = Q\Delta V$

$\Delta U = (2.80 \times 10^{-3})(74)$

$\Delta U = 0.2072 J$

Water pressure in a lake is greater __________. a. at the bottom b. at the surface c. at any point, for pressure is the same d.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer a

Explanation:

In the fluid pressure is a measure of force per unit area, in this case force is the weight of the fluid that increases as we descend. Therefore, the pressure increases with the depth of the fluid.

The correct answer a

An object originally at rest, is accelerated uniformly along a straight line to a speed of 8m/s in 2s. What is the acceleration

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

4m/s²

Explanation:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 8 m/s

Time taken (t) = 2 sec

Acceleration (a) = ?

We know

$a = \frac{v - u}{t} \\ = \frac{8 - 0}{2} \\ = \frac{8}{2} \\ = 4 \: m |s ^{2}$

Hope it will help :)

Q15.17 Both wave intensity and gravitation obey inverse-square laws. Do they do so for the same reason?Discuss the reason for ea

s2008m [1.1K]

(a) Intensity obeys inverse square law from basis of light passing through a given surface.

(b) Gravitation obeys inverse square law from the basis of force between two masses.

<h3>What is intensity?</h3>

Intensity is the ratio is ratio of power to area of a given surface.

I = P/A (W/m²)

where;

P is power
A is area

<h3>Universal gravitation law</h3>

$F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}$

Intensity and gravitation do not obey inverse square law for same reason;

Intensity obeys inverse square law from basis of light passing through a given surface.
Gravitation obeys inverse square law from the basis of force between two masses.

<h3>Acceleration of the block</h3>

a = v²/A

a = (3.9²)/0.12

a = 126.75 m/s²

What causes convection currents, and what do they do?

frez [133]

Answer:

Convection currents are the result of different heating. Lighter material (warm) rises while heavier (cold) material sinks. This movement of the materials is what causes convection currents! (BTW, it happens in water, in the atmosphere, and in the mantle of Earth!

Explanation:

I hope this helps a little! :)
