Answer:

P.E.      =   -0.449 J

Explanation:

Potential energy of a charge particle in any electrostatic field is defined as the amount of work done ( in negative ) to bring that charge particle from any position to a new position r.

Now Potential energy is defined by this formula,

P.E. = k q₁ q₂/ r

where P.E. is the potential energy.

k = 1/( 4πε₀) = 8.99 × 10⁹ C²/ ( Nm²)

q₁ = charge of one particle = +1.0μC

q₂ = charge of another particle = -5.0μC

r = distance = 0.1 m

Now , P.E. = 8.99 × 10⁹C²/ ( Nm²) * ( -5.0 × 10⁻⁶ C ) × ( 1 × 10⁻⁶ C ) / 0.1 m

          P.E.      =  -0.449 J

A ball is tossed straight up from the surface of a small, sphericalasteroid with no atmosphere. The aball rises to a height equa
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

1. 3) only a constant gravitation force that acts downward

2. b) Equal to the accleration at the surface of the asteroidc)

Explanation:

1.

  • In absence of atmosphere, the force that will act on the steroid is the force of gravity due to asteroid.
  • Gravitational force is a long range force acting always attractive in nature.
  • It is a contact-less field force which does not requires a medium.

Mathematically given as:

F=G.\frac{M_1.M_2}{R^2}

where:

G = gravitational constant

M_1\ \&\ M_2 are the mass of the two objects

R= radial distance between the two objects.

2.

The acceleration of the ball at the top height of the path is still under the influence of the gravity of the two masses so it will be equal to the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the asteroid. Acceleration always remains constant.

How does activity on the Sun affect natural phenomena on Earth?
Nana76 [90]

Answer and Explanation:

The Sun is the main source of energy on the earth if there will be no availability of Sun energy then life is impossible om the earth besides this the Sun warms our planet. The heating of ocean and atmosphere is mainly sue to Sun energy .Sun has also a great impact on the weather we can say that Sun is weather deciding on the earth our climate is totally dependent on the how much energy we got in form of radiation from earth.

What 2 kinds of substances does convection occur ?
ch4aika [34]

Liquids and Gases

Explanation:

Convection is a form of heat transfer that is predominant in liquids and gaseous substances. This form of heat transfer is driven by density differences between gases and liquids.

  • Convection involves the actual movement of the particles of a medium.
  • Boiling of food is clinical example of convection in liquids. Hot part of the food in contact with the heat source becomes less dense and more buoyant. They rise to the top of the medium and are replace by the denser and colder part of the food.
  • Land and sea breeze is an example of convection in gases. The land warms the air around it during the day. It is hotter and less dense. The air mass moves to replace the ones on the sea where the air is relatively cold due to high specific heat capacity of water.
  • The reverse process occurs at night.
