Consider dropping a ball from rest. This ball moves from astate of high gravitational potential energy to one of lowgravitationa

l potential energy as it falls to the ground.Similarly, charges move from a state of high electric potentialenergy to one of low electric potential energy.Mustang Sally just finished restoring her1965 Ford Mustang car. To save money, she did not get a newbattery. When she tries to start the car, she discovers that thebattery is dead and she needs a jump start. While unhooking thejumper cables, the positive and negative cables almost touch and aspark jumps between the ends of the cables. This spark is caused bythe movement of electrons through the air between the batteryterminals. In what direction are the electrons traveling?

Answer:

From the negative to the positive cable.

Explanation:

The electrons have negative charge, which means that the negative terminal of the battery will suply the electrons, thus they are present in excess on the negative cable and will jump from it to the positive cable. This current direction is called real current.

The velocity of an object is the distance it travels per unit time. Suppose the velocity of a gilding bird is measured to be 52.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

d=7.115s

Explanation:

What problem says can be written mathematically as:

v=\frac{d}{t}

Where:

v=Velocity\\t=Time\\d=Distance

The problem itself it's really simple, we only need to replace the data provided in the previous equation, but first, let's convert the units of the velocity from cm/s to m/s because we have to work with the same units and working in meters is the most apropiate action, because is the base unit of length in the International System of Units:

52\frac{cm}{s} *\frac{1m}{100cm} =0.52\frac{m}{s}

Now, we can replace the data in the equation and find the time it will take the bird to travel 3.7 m:

0.52=\frac{3.7}{t}

Solving for t, multiplying by t both sides, and dividing by 0.52 both sides:

t=\frac{3.7}{0.52} =7.115384615s\approx7.115s

On which date is the gravitational force between Earth and the moon the greatest?
Genrish500 [490]

The gravitational forces between the Earth and Moon are greatest when the two bodies are closest together. That happens every 27.32 days, when the Moon is at the perigee of its orbit.

Even if this happened at the same time in every orbit, the date would change, because there are not 27.32 days in a month.

But it doesn't happen at the same time in every orbit ... the Moon's perigee precesses around its orbit, on account of the gravitational forces toward the Earth, the Sun, Venus, Mars, and the other planets.

You are given two unknown point charges, Q1, and Q2. At a point on the line joining them, one third of the way from Q1 to Q2 the
podryga [215]
The formula that is applicable here is E = kQ/r^2 in which the energy of attraction is proportional to the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance. In this case, 
kQ1/(r1)^2 = kQ2/(r2)^2  r1=l/3, r2=2l/3solve Q1/Q2
kQ1/(l/3)^2 = kQ2/(2l/3)^2  kQ1/(l^2/9) = kQ2/(4l^2/9)Q1/Q2 =   1/4
