Answer:

200\times 10^{-6}j

Explanation:

We have given the radius of first sphere is 10 cm and radius of second sphere is 20 cm

So the potential of first sphere will be greater than the potential of the second sphere, so charge will flow from first sphere to second sphere

Let q charge is flow from first sphere to second sphere and then potential become same

So V=\frac{K(100-q)}{r_1}=\frac{K\times 100}{r_2}

200-100=2q+q

q=\frac{100}{3}=33.33nC

So V=\frac{K(100-q)}{r_1}=\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times (100-33.33)\times 10^{-9}}{10\times 10^{-2}}=6003V

We know that potential energy U=qV=33.33\times 10^{-9}\times 6003=200\times 10^{-6}j

Answer:

The electric potential energy between the two charged spheres is 199.9\times10^{-6}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of first sphere R_{1}=10\ cm

Radius of second sphere R_{2}=10\ cm

Charge Q= 100 nC

We know charge flows through higher potential to lower potential.

Using formula of potential

V=\dfrac{k(Q-q)}{R_{1}}...(I)

V=\dfrac{k(Q+q)}{R_{2}}...(II)

From equation (I) and (II)

\dfrac{k(Q-q)}{R_{1}}=\dfrac{k(Q+q)}{R_{2}}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{(100-q)}{10\times10^{2}}=\dfrac{(100+q)}{20\times10^{-2}}

(100-q)\times20\times10^{-2}=(100+q)\times10\times10^{-2}

q=\dfrac{1000}{30}

q=\dfrac{100}{3}

q=33.33\ nC

So, the potential at R₁ and R₂

Using formula of potential

V=\dfrac{k(Q-q)}{R_{1}}

Put the value into the formula

V=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}(100-33.33)\times10^{-9}}{10\times10^{-2}}

V=6000.3\ Volt

We need to calculate the electric potential energy between the two charged spheres

Using formula of  the electric potential energy

U=qV

U=33.33\times10^{-9}\times6.0003\times10^{3}

U=199.9\times10^{-6}\ J

Hence, The electric potential energy between the two charged spheres is 199.9\times10^{-6}\ J

Draw Graph for the derivation of three equations of Motion​
Over [174]

Answer:

Hey mate I shall not tell you the answer I shall explain it to you after this if still you can't understand then say

Explanation:

Derive v = u + at by Graphical Method. Consider the velocity – time graph of a body shown in the below Figure

Derive s = ut + (1/2) at2 by Graphical Method. Velocity so time graph to derive the equations of motion.

Derive v2 = u2 + 2as by Graphical Method. Velocity–Time graph to derive the equations of motion.

I hope you understand now

enjoy your day

Which of the following units would need to be converted before being used for a calculation
Andreyy89

The units which would need to be converted before being used for a calculation are cm and 0 ks.

<h3>What is Unit?</h3>

This is referred to a standard which is used to make comparisons in the aspect of measurement.

The units cm and 0 ks aren't in their standard form which is m and s respectively.

How strongly the planet you're on pulls on you is your
IrinaK [193]
The size of the forces between you and the planet you're on is
your weight on that planet.

Don't forget that you pull the planet with a force equal to the force
that the planet pulls on you.  Your weight on Earth is the same as
the Earth's weight on you !

You lift a 10-kg box to a height of 1m. How much work do you do on the box when you lift it from the ground? (g= 9.81 m/s2)
Andreyy89

Answer:

98.1 Joule

Explanation:

Solution,

⇒Mass(m)=10kg

⇒Weight(F)=Mg=10×9.81=98.1N

⇒Distance(d)=1m

Now,

Work done=F×d

                  =98.1×1

                  =98.1J
