Answer:

at the top

Explanation:

Potential energy is the stored energy, mechanical energy,

or energy possessed by by virtue of the position of an object.an example of potential energy is the energy that a ball possesses by virtue of its sitting at the top of the stairs it being about to roll down the stairs.

How do you increase capacitance in a capacitor?

Marizza181 [45]

If you want to increase the Capacitance of Parallele Plate Capacitor then increase the surface area, reduce the separation between the plate and use a dielectric material in between the plate which have higher dielectric breakdown strength.

Una furgoneta circula por una carretera a 55km/h. Diez km atrás , un coche circula en el mismo sentido a 85km/h ¿ En cuanto tiem

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

t = 0.33h = 1200s

x = 18.33 km

Explanation:

If the origin of coordinates is at the second car, you can write the following equations for both cars:

car 1:

$x=x_o+v_1t$ (1)

xo = 10 km

v1 = 55km/h

car 2:

$x'=v_2t$ (2)

v2 = 85km/h

For a specific value of time t the positions of both cars are equal, that is, x=x'. You equal equations (1) and (2) and solve for t:

$x=x'\\\\x_o+v_1t=v_2t\\\\(v_2-v_1)t=x_o\\\\t=\frac{x_o}{v_2-v_1}$

$t=\frac{10km}{85km/h-55km/h}=0.33h*\frac{3600s}{1h}=1200s$

The position in which both cars coincides is:

$x=(55km/h)(0.33h)=18.33km$

A particle, whose acceleration is constant, is moving in the negative x direction at a speed of 4.91 m/s, and 12.9 s later the p

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The particle’s velocity is -16.9 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of particle in negative x direction= 4.91 m/s

Time = 12.9 s

Final velocity of particle in positive x direction= 7.12 m/s

Before 12.4 sec,

Velocity of particle in negative x direction= 5.32 m/s

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using equation of motion

$v = u+at$

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

Where, v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

t = time

Put the value into the equation

$a=\dfrac{7.12-(-4.91)}{12.9}$

$a=0.933\ m/s^2$

We need to calculate the initial speed of the particle

Using equation of motion again

$v=u+at$

$u=v-at$

Put the value into the formula

$u=-5.321-0.933\times12.4$

$u=-16.9\ m/s$

Hence, The particle’s velocity is -16.9 m/s.
