Answer:3W

If it takes an amount of work W to move two q point charges from infinity to a distance d apart from each other, then how much work should it take to move three q point charges from infinity to a distance d apart from each other?

A) 2W

B) 3W

C) 4W

D) 6W

Explanation: calculating work done,W, in moving two positive q point charges from infinity to a valued distance d from each other  is

W = k(+q)(+q)/ d

k is couloumb's constant

work done in moving 3 equal positive charges from infinity to a finite distance is given by

W₂=W₄=W₆=k(+q)(+q)/ d

Total work done, W' =k(+q)(+q)/ d + k(+q)(+q)/ d + k(+q)(+q)/ d

= W + W + W = 3W

Show the SI dimension of density (p) and the BG unit of specific volume
artcher [175]

Explanation:

Density is defined as the ratio of the mass to the volume. The expression for density is:

Density=\frac {Mass}{Volume}

The Si unit for density is kg/m³

The dimensional expression for density = [ML⁻³]

Specific volume is defined as the ration of the volume to the mass. It is the reciprocal of density.

The BG unit of specific volume is ft³ / lb.

6. A car is traveling at 50m/s when it begins to slow down to
ki77a [65]

Answer:

-6 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 50 m/s

v = 20 m/s

t = 5 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

20 m/s = a (5 s) + 50 m/s

a = -6 m/s²
