Answer:
E. Some charges in the region are positive, and some are negative.
Explanation:
Electric potential is given as;

where;
W is the work done in moving a charge between two points which have a difference in potential
Q is quantity of charge in the given region
If the electric potential at a given point in the region is zero, then sum of the charges in the given region must be equal to zero. For the charges to sum to zero, some will be positive while some will be negative,.
Therefore, the correct statement in the given options is "E"
E. Some charges in the region are positive, and some are negative.
Answer:
C. molecules speed up as more thermal energy is added
Explanation:
The molecules will simply speed up as more thermal energy is added to the solid.
Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is set in motion.
- Heat causes kinetic energy build up in a body.
- As the molecules of the solid gains heat, they will continue to increase in thermal energy.
- They are forced to start vibrating about their fixed point.
- Thereafter, when they have enough energy, they break free from the forces holding them.
- Therefore, they move from a state of rest to one with a very high kinetic energy where the molecules moves rapidly.
- This is why a solid will change to liquid and sometimes eventually gas
Answer:
The permittivity of rubber is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The magnitude of the point charge is 
The diameter of the rubber shell is 
The Electric field inside the rubber shell is 
The radius of the rubber is mathematically evaluated as

Generally the electric field for a point is in an insulator(rubber) is mathematically represented as
Where
is the permittivity of rubber
=> 
=> 
substituting values


Answer:
15.2 s
Explanation:
Convert hp to W:
55.0 hp × 746 W/hp = 41,030 W
Power = energy / time
41030 W = 6.22×10⁵ J / t
t = 15.2 s
