Answer:

electric potential energy  is 9.36 ×10^{-2} J

Explanation:

given data

charge q = 1.25 μC =1.25×10^{-6} C

length L = 0.450 m

to find out

electric potential energy

solution

we apply electric potential energy U formula

U = U1 + U2 + U3   .................1

we know magnitude of all three charge is

q = q1 = q2 = q3

so here from 1

U = 1 / 4π∈ × (q²/L + q²/L +q²/L )

U = 1 / 4π∈ × 3(q²/L)

put here all value and we know ∈ = 8.85 ×10^{-12} F/m

U = 1 / 4π( 8.85 ×10^{-12}) × ( 3 (1.25×10^{-6})² / 0.450 )

U = 8.99×10^{9} × ( 3 (1.25×10^{-6})² / 0.450 )

U = 9.36 ×10^{-2}

so electric potential energy  is 9.36 ×10^{-2} J

Josie ran at an average speed of 16 m/s. if her mass 10 kg, what was her kinetic energy as she crosses her finish line?
Helen [10]

Answer: 1280 J

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}  \\\\KE= \frac{1}{2} (10 kg)(16 m/s)^2\\=1280 J
