Points A, B, and C form the vertices of a triangle in a nonuniform electrostatic field. The electrostatic work done on a particl

e of charge q as the particle travels from A to B is WAB and that done on the particle as it travels from A to C is WAC=−WAB/3.

Answer:

Explanation:

Let electric potential at A ,B and C be Va , Vb and Vc respectively.

Work done = charge x potential difference

Wab = q ( Va - Vb )

Wac =  q (  Va -  Vc )

Given

Wac = - Wab / 3

3Wac = - Wab

Now

Wbc = q ( Vb - Vc )

= q [ ( Va-Vc ) - ( Va - Vb )]  

= Wac - Wab

= Wac + 3Wac

= 4Wac

Paladinen [302]

D = distance between th two trains at the start of the motion = 100 miles

V = speed of the faster train towards slower train = 60 mph

v = speed of the slower train towards faster train = 40 mph

t = time taken by the two trains to collide = ?

time taken by the two trains to collide is given as

t = D/(V + v)

t = 100/(60 + 40) = 1 h

v' = speed of the bird = 90 mph

d = distance traveled by the bird

distance traveled by the bird is given as

d = v' t

d = 90 x 1

d = 90 miles

In which situation is maximum work considered to be done by a force?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

A) When the angle between the Force (F) and Displacement (x) is 0°, because, Work done (W) is directly proportional to the Cosine of the Angle between the Force applied and the resultant displacement of the subject.

W = F•x cos ∅

If ∅ = 0°,

W = F•x ===> Maximum Work Done.

If ∅ = 45°,

W = F•x/√2

If ∅ = 90°,

W = 0

If ∅ = 180°,

W = –F•x ===> Minimum Work Done.

7. Describe about the difficultites that would arise due to lack of non-uniformity in measurement. ​
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Many difficulties would arise if there was a lack of uniformity in the measurement of various weights and measures between business, industry, individuals and countries. The biggest implications for a lack of uniformity are in health and safety, equity and sustainability.

Why is the sky blue?
Taya2010 [7]
A clear cloudless day-time sky is blue because molecules in the air scatter blue light from the sun more than they scatter red light. When we look towards the sun at sunset, we see red and orange colours because the blue light has been scattered out and away from the line of sight.
