Answer:

The electric field does positive work on the charge.

The potential energy associated with the charge decreases.

Explanation:

We know that force due to electric filed on a charge particle q given as

 F = q E          --------1

If the   positive charge is moving in the direction of electric filed it means that force due to electric field and displacement of particle due to motion is in the same direction.So the work done due to electric filed will be positive.

Work = Force . Displacement

W= F.d

F= W/d            ---------2

From equation 1 and 2

W/d = q E

W/ q = E/ d

We know that voltage difference ΔV

ΔV = E/ d

ΔV =W/ q

So the potential difference will be decrease because charge is positive.So the potential energy will be decreases.

Answer:

The potential energy associated with the charge decreases,

The electric field does positive work on the charge.

Explanation:

If a positive charge is moving in the direction of an electric field that it would normally move, the potential energy associated with the charge will decrease because the scenario is similar to what occurs in a constant gravitational field.

Also, when potential energy is lost (decreases), this means positive work is done on the charge.

You are driving at 25 m/s with your cruise control on when you see a fallen tree in the road. It takes you 0.30 s to put on the
xxTIMURxx [149]

Explanation:

Given data

velocity v= 25m/s

The time it takes to put on brake t= 0.3s

the distance covered when the  brake was put on is

v=s/t

s= v*t

s= 25*0.3s

s= 7.5m

hence the distance covered is 7.5m

Also the rate of decrease in aceleration is 5m/s^2

we can also calculate the distance covered at this rate

v^2=u^2+2as

25^2= 0+2*5*s

625=10s

divide both sides by 10

s=625/10

s= 62.5m

The total  distance covered between putting on the brakes and decelareation is  7.5+62.5= 70m

Given that the tree is 75m ahead, the car would not hit the tree

A charge of 25 nC is uniformly distributed along a straight rod of length 3.0 m that is bent into a circular arc with a radius o
Greeley [361]

Answer:

E = 31.329 N/C.

Explanation:

The differential electric field dE at the center of curvature of the arc is

dE = k\dfrac{dQ}{r^2}cos(\theta ) <em>(we have a cosine because vertical components cancel, leaving only horizontal cosine components of E. )</em>

where r is the radius of curvature.

Now

dQ = \lambda rd\theta,

where \lambda is the charge per unit length, and it has the value

\lambda = \dfrac{25*10^{-9}C}{3.0m} = 8.3*10^{-9}C/m.

Thus, the electric field at the center of the curvature of the arc is:

E = \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} k\dfrac{\lambda rd\theta  }{r^2} cos(\theta)

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2}cos(\theta) d\theta.

Now, we find \theta_1 and \theta_2. To do this we ask ourselves what fraction is the arc length  3.0 of the circumference of the circle:

fraction = \dfrac{3.0m}{2\pi (2.3m)}  = 0.2076

and this is  

0.2076*2\pi =1.304 radians.

Therefore,

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} cos(\theta)d\theta= \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{0}^{1.304}cos(\theta) d\theta.

evaluating the integral, and putting in the numerical values  we get:

E = \dfrac{8.3*10^{-9} *9*10^9}{2.3} *(sin(1.304)-sin(0))\\

\boxed{ E = 31.329N/C.}
