An electron is brought from rest infinitely far away to rest at point P located at a distance of 0.041 m from a fixed charge q.

That process required 101 eV of energy from an eternal agent to perform the necessary work.(a) What is the electric potential, in volts, at point P?

Answer:

The electric potential in volts is 1.618 x 10⁻¹⁷ V

Explanation:

The electric potential, in volts, at point P, can be calculated as follow;

Electric potential is the work done in moving a unit positive charge from infinity to a particular point in the electric field.

Thus, the work done in this process in moving the charge to point p is 101eV.

Convert this Volts = 101 × 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ V

                              = 1.618 x 10⁻¹⁷ V

Therefore, the electric potential in volts is 1.618 x 10⁻¹⁷ V

A 75-g bullet is fired from a rifle having a barrel 0.540 m long. choose the origin to be at the location where the bullet begin
lyudmila [28]
Part a) The work done by the gas on the bullet is the integral of the force in dx, where x is the distance covered by the bullet inside the barrel with respect to the origin:
W= \int\limits^{0.540m}_{0} {F} \, dx =  \int\limits^{0.540m}_{0} {(16000+10000x-26000x^2)} \, dx =
=16000x+10000  \frac{x^2}{2} - 26000  \frac{x^3}{3}
By substituting the length of the barrel, L=0.540 m, we find the total work done by the gas on the bullet:
W=16000(0.540m)+10000  \frac{(0.540m)^2}{2} - 26000  \frac{(0.540m)^3}{3}  =
=8733 J=8.73 kJ

part b) The resolution of the problem is the same, we just have to use the new length of the barrel (L=0.95 m) inside the final formula, and we find the new value of the work:
W=16000(0.95m)+10000  \frac{(0.95m)^2}{2} - 26000  \frac{(0.95m)^3}{3}  =
=12280 J=12.28 kJ

A python can detect thermal radiation from objects that differ in temperature from their environment as long as the received int
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

10.52 m

Explanation:

The power radiated by a body is given by

P = σεAT⁴ where ε = emissivity = 0.97, T = temperature = 30 C + 273 = 303 K, A = surface area of human body = 1.8 m², σ = 5.67 × 10⁻⁴ W/m²K⁴

P = σεAT⁴ = 5.67 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²K⁴ ×  0.97 × 1.8 m² × (303)⁴ = 834.45 W

This is the power radiated by the human body.

The intensity I = P/A where A = 4πr² where r = distance from human body.

I = P/4πr²

r = (√P/πI)/2

If the python is able to detect an intensity of 0.60 W/m², with a power of 834.45 W emitted by the human body, the maximum distance r, is thus

r = (√P/πI)/2 = (√834.45/0.60π)/2 = 21.04/2 = 10.52 m

So, the maximum distance at which a python could detect your presence is 10.52 m.

Describe the three major layers of the earth including temperature thickness of chemical composition
Elena L [17]
The three main layers are the core, the mantle, and the crust. The core is divided into two parts, the liquid outer core, and the solid inner core. Together it is 3450 km thick. The mantle is 2100 km thick, and the crust is 35-70 km thick. Hope I helped!

A block sliding across a level surface has a mass of 2.5 kg and a mechanical energy of 20 joules. What is its velocity?
tia_tia [17]
Hi!

The energy of the block is 4 m/s

To calculate this, you need to use the equation for kinetic energy. The block is sliding (i.e. it's moving). If the object is sliding across a level surface, the only energy it has is kinetic energy, because there is no change in potential energy (which changes with height). So, the mechanical energy will be pure kinetic energy. The equation is the following, derived from the expression for kinetic energy:

v= \sqrt{ \frac{2*Ke}{m}}=\sqrt{ \frac{2*20 (kg*m^{2}*s^{-2}) }{2,5kg}}=4 m/s

Suppose that a ball is released from the window of a train that is moving with constant velocity.  The path of the ball, as obse
barxatty [35]

True, the path of the ball, as observed from the train window, will be a horizontal straight line.

An object projected from a certain height has a parabolic path when observed from a fixed point.

However, if the reference point is moving at the same velocity as the object, the path of the object's motion appears to be a straight line.

When the ball is released from the window of the train, it will move at the same constant velocity as the train, and the path of the ball's motion observed from the train window will be a straight line.

Thus, we can conclude that the given statement is true. The path of the ball, as observed from the train window, will be a horizontal straight line.
