Compare and contrast electric potential energy and electric potential difference? Explain.
forsale [732]

Answer:

<u><em>Electric Potential Energy:</em></u>

The energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric firld is called Electric Potential Energy

<u><em>Electric Potential Difference:</em></u>

The amount of work done in carrying a unit charge from one point to an other in an electric field is called Electric Potential Difference.

<u><em>Relation:</em></u>

Relation between Electric potential and electrical potential energy is given by

\delta V=\frac{PE}{q}

Here PE represents Electric potential energy

and \delta V is Electric potential difference

it means electric potential difference is the difference in electric potential energy divided by the charge.

If a star is 13.7 light years away from earth, how can we tell which elements it is made of?
ICE Princess25 [194]
Light year is a unit of measure of time that makes use of the speed of light and distance between objects to determine the number of years it will take for the light to travel. We can determine what element the object is made up of by the wavelength of the color.

Which statement describes one feature of Rutherford's model of the atom?
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The atom is mostly empty space.

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford in the year 1911 developed a model of an atom. In his model the atom was shown that the atom is mostly empty spaces composed of negative electrons which orbits round a positive nucleus just like planets revolving round the sun.

Rutherford came up with this model by performing experiments in 1909 which involves the scattering of alpha particles on a thin gold foil. From this experiments he came up with his model.

A 25.0 kg projectile is fired by accelerating it with an electromagnetic rail gun on the earth's surface. the rail makes a 30.0
stich3 [128]

(a)

The work done on the projectile is 9375 joule.

The work on the projectile is calculated as

W=F×d

=1250×7.5

=9375 joule

(b)

The speed of the projectile after 7.5 m is 27.38 m/s

First we need to find out the acceleration of the projectile

F=m×a

1250=25×a

a=50 m/s^{2}

Now the velocity of the projectile after 7.5 m is calculated as

v^2=u^2+2a×s

v^2=0+2×50*7.5

v=27.38 m/s
