Three charged particles are positioned in the xy plane: a 50-nC charge at y = 6 m on the y axis, a −80-nC charge at x = −4 m on

the x axis, and a 70-nc charge at y = −6 m on the y axis. What is the electric potential (relative to a zero at infinity) at the point x = 8 m on the x axis?

Answer:

V = 48 Volts

Explanation:

Since we know that electric potential is a scalar quantity

So here total potential of a point is sum of potential due to each charge

It is given as

V = V_1 + V_2 + V_3

here we have potential due to 50 nC placed at y = 6 m

V_1 = \frac{kQ}{r}

V_1 = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(50 \times 10^{-9})}{\sqrt{6^2 + 8^2}}

V_1 = 45 Volts

Now potential due to -80 nC charge placed at x = -4

V_2 = \frac{kQ}{r}

V_2 = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(-80 \times 10^{-9})}{12}

V_2 = -60 Volts

Now potential due to 70 nC placed at y = -6 m

V_3 = \frac{kQ}{r}

V_3 = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(70 \times 10^{-9})}{\sqrt{6^2 + 8^2}}

V_3 = 63 Volts

Now total potential at this point is given as

V = 45 - 60 + 63 = 48 Volts

How do interest groups and PACs keep us from
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Interest groups help democracy because they represent the interests of such large numbers of people and encourage political participation by many groups. The stable, cooperative relationship often develops among a congressional committee, an administrative agency, and one or more supportive interest groups.

Interest groups try to influence the government to adopt legislation that would benefit them. Email, letter, faxes, phone calls, providing research and information (to bring about change by proving your cause with facts by funded research).

A 328-kg car moving at 19.1 m/s in the + x direction hits from behind a second car moving at 13.0 m/s in the same direction. If
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

+14.0 m/s

Explanation:

we have mV + Mv = mU + Mu we solve for U = (mV + Mv - Mu)/m = (328*19.1 + 790*13 - 790*15.1)/328 = 14. Answer
