Answer:

0.39 km west

Explanation:

The position of Runner A is:

x = -5.7 + 8.8 t

The position of Runner B is:

x = 4.2 − 7.6 t

When the positions are equal:

-5.7 + 8.8 t = 4.2 − 7.6 t

16.4 t = 9.9

t = 0.604

Plug into either equation to find the position at this time:

x = -5.7 + 8.8 (0.604)

x = -0.39

The runners are 0.39 km west of the flagpole when they meet.

A student makes the following statement
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The current is not used up. The electrons flow through the entire circuit and this travel is the current. They flow until they are not charged anymore. That is also why the circuit must be closed or else electrons would escape not just light it up for a second then go out.

Calculate the electric potential energy in a capacitor that stores 4.0 10-10 C of charge at 250.0 V
Arada [10]
Q = C.v
v = Q/C
v = 4 × 10^(-10)/250
 = 4 × 10^(-10)/2.5 × 10^2
 = 1.6 × 10^(-12) volt
