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

Water flows through a cast steel pipe (k = 50 W m.K, ε = 0.8) with an outer diameter of 104mm and 2 mm wall thickness. Calculate
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The heat loss per unit length is   \frac{Q}{L}   = 2981 W/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The outer diameter of the pipe is d = 104mm = \frac{104}{1000} = 0.104 m

     The thickness is  D = 2mm = \frac{2}{1000} = 0.002m  

      The temperature  of water is  T = 90^oC = 90 + 273 = 363K  

      The outside air temperature is T_a = -10^oC = -10 +273 = 263K

        The water side heat transfer coefficient is z_1 = 300 W/ m^2 \cdot K

       The  heat transfer coefficient is  z_2 = 20 W/m^2 \cdot K

The heat lost per unit length is mathematically represented as

           \frac{Q}{L}   = \frac{2 \pi (T - Ta)}{ \frac{ln [\frac{d}{D} ]}{z_1}  +  \frac{ln [\frac{d}{D} ]}{z_2}}

Substituting values

         \frac{Q}{L}   = \frac{2 * 3.142 (363 - 263)}{ \frac{ln [\frac{0.104}{0.002} ]}{300}  +  \frac{ln [\frac{0.104}{0.002} ]}{20}}

           \frac{Q}{L}   = \frac{628}{0.2107}

           \frac{Q}{L}   = 2981 W/m

choose the correct anwer 9: the range of the gravitional force is given by A: 10_2m B:10_15m C: infinite D: 10_10m​
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force depends inversely on the square of the radial distance between the centers of the two masses. Thus, essentially, the force can only fall to zero, when the denominator that is r becomes infinite.

What is the relation between Physical states of solution and solvent
posledela

Explanation:

The solute does not have to be in the same physical state as the solvent, but the physical state of the solvent usually determines the state of the solution. As long as the solute and solvent combine to give a homogeneous solution, the solute is said to be soluble in the solvent.
