Answer: at when distance r = infinity.

Explanation: The formulae for the electric potential of an electric charge to an arbitrary point is given by the formulae below

V = q/4πεr

V = electric potential (volts)

q = magnitude of electric charge

ε = permittivity of free space

r = distance between arbitrary point and charge.

In the equation above, it can be seen that only electric potential (v) and distance (r) is a variable, and there is an inverse relationship between them (an increase in one leads to a decrease in the other)

Thus to have zero value of electric potential (v= 0) we have to have the largest value of r ( r = infinity).

Same goes for electric potential energy between two charges, the formulae is given below as

W = q1 *q2/4πεr

W= electric potential energy

q1 = magnitude of first charge.

q2 = magnitude of second charge

ε = permittivity of free space

r = distance between arbitrary point and charge.

Also, all values are constant aside from electric potential energy (w) and distance (r) which have an inverse relationship.

Thus to have zero value of electric potential energy (w =0), we have to get an infinite value of distance ( r =infinity)

1. In an urban area, what can you expect
pantera1 [17]

Answer: Most inhabitants of urban areas have nonagricultural jobs meaning not of, relating to, or used in farming and agriculture nonagricultural products/land. Urban areas are very developed, meaning there is a density of human structures such as houses, commercial buildings, roads, bridges, and railways.

A long string is pulled so that the tension in it increases by a factor of four. If the change in length is negligible, by what
rusak2 [61]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to wave velocity as a function of the tension and linear mass density. This is

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

Here

v = Wave speed

T = Tension

\mu = Linear mass density

From this proportion we can realize that the speed of the wave is directly proportional to the square of the tension

v \propto \sqrt{T}

Therefore, if there is an increase in tension of 4, the velocity will increase the square root of that proportion

v \propto \sqrt{4} = 2  

The factor that the wave speed change is 2.

Who was the first known contributor to the atomic theory?
juin [17]

Answer:

Democritus

Explanation:

Democritus came up with the idea of indivisible atoms. The earliest known proponent of anything resembling modern atomic theory was the ancient Greek thinker Democritus. He proposed the existence of indivisible atoms as a response to the arguments of Parmenides and the paradoxes of Zeno.

In a meeting of mimes, mime 1 goes through a displacement d1 = (6.00 m)i + (5.74 m)j and and mime 2 goes through a displacement
Blizzard [7]

a) Vector product: |d1 × d2| = (34.2 m) k

b) Scalar product: d1 · d2 = -0.874 m

c) (d1 + d2) · d2 = 16.1 m

d) Component of d1 along direction of d2: -0.21 m

Explanation:

a)

In this part, we want to calculate

|d1 × d2|

Which is the vector product between the two displacements d1 and d2.

The two vectors are:

d1 = (6.00 m)i + (5.74 m)j

d2 = (-2.92 m)i + (2.9 m)j

The vector product of two vectors (a_x,a_y,a_z) and (b_x,b_y,b_z) is also a vector which has components:

r=(r_x,r_y,r_z)\\r_x=a_yb_z-a_zb_y\\r_y=a_zb_x-a_xb_z\\r_z=a_xb_y-a_yb_x

We notice immediatly that in this problem ,the two vectors d1 and d2 lie in the x-y plane, so they do not have components in zero. Therefore, the vector product has only one component, which is the one in z, and it is:

r_z=(6.00)(2.9)-(5.74)(-2.92))=34.2 m

Therefore, the vector product of d1 and d2 is:

|d1 × d2| = (34.2 m) k

b)

In this case, we want to calculate

d1 · d2

Which is the scalar product between the two displacements.

The scalar product of two vectors (a_x,a_y,a_z) and (b_x,b_y,b_z) is a scalar given by:

a \cdot b = a_x b_x + a_y b_y + a_z b_z

In this problem,

d1 = (6.00 m)i + (5.74 m)j

d2 = (-2.92 m)i + (2.9 m)j

Therefore, the scalar product between the two vectors is:

d_1 \cdot d_2 = (6.00)(-2.92)+(5.74)(2.9)=-0.87m

c)

In this  case, we want to calculate

(d1 + d2) · d2

Which means that first we have to calculate the resultant displacement d1 + d2, and then calculate the scalar product of the resultant vector with d2.

Given two vectors  (a_x,a_y,a_z) and (b_x,b_y,b_z), the resultant vector is also a vector given by

r=(r_x,r_y,r_z)\\r_x=a_x+b_x\\r_y=a_y+b_y\\r_z=a_z+b_z

In this case,

d1 = (6.00 m)i + (5.74 m)j

d2 = (-2.92 m)i + (2.9 m)j

So the resultant vector is

r_x=6.00+(-2.92)=3.08 m\\r_y = 5.74+2.9=8.64 m

So

(d_1+d_2)=(3.08 m,8.64 m)

And calculating the scalar product with d2, we find:

(d_1 + d_2)\cdot d_2 = (3.08)(-2.92)+(8.64)(2.9)=16.1 m

d)

The component of a vector a along another vector b is given by

a_b = \frac{a\cdot b}{|b|}

wherea\cdot b is the scalar product between and b

|b| is the magnitude of vector b

In this problem, we have the two vectors

d1 = (6.00 m)i + (5.74 m)j

d2 = (-2.92 m)i + (2.9 m)j

We want to find the component of d1 along the direction of d2.

We already calculated the scalar product of the two vectors in part b):

d1 · d2 = -0.874 m

The magnitude of a vector b is given by

|b|=\sqrt{b_x^2+b_y^2+b_z^2}

So, for vector d2,

|d_2|=\sqrt{(-2.92)^2+(2.9)^2}=4.1 m

Now we can calculate the component of d1 along d2:

d_1_{d_2}=\frac{d_1 \cdot d_2}{|d_2|}=\frac{-0.874}{4.1}=-0.21 m
