A particle with a charge of 2e moves between two points which have a potential difference of 75V. What is the change in potentia
Sonbull [250]
Electric potential energy is defined as Ep=Q*V where Q is the magnitude of the charge and V is the potential difference. So when a charge moves between the points that have a potential difference, it's energy changes. 

In our case: 

Q=2e=2*(-1.6*10^-19) C
V=75 V

Ep=(-3.2*10^-19)*75

Ep=-2.4*10^-17 J

The change in potential energy of the charge is -2.4*10^-17 J

Answer:

Tension in the string will increase

Explanation:

As we know that tension in the string at any angle with the vertical is given as

T - mgcos\theta = m\omega^2 R

now we have

T = mgcos\theta + m\omega^2 R

also we know that

angular speed of the stone is directly depending on the time period of the motion

so it is given as

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}

since the frequency of the revolution is increased from n = 1 rev/s to 2 rev/s

so the angular speed would be doubled

So here we can say that

tension in the string will increase when we will increase the frequency of revolution.
