Which correctly describes electric potential, electric field, and electric (or electrostatic) force?
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

A vector is a physical quantity that has magnitude and direction while a scalar is a physical quantity that has magnitude only

*electric potential is a scalar quantity because it only has magnitude

*electric field and electric force are vector quantities because they have magnitude and direction

Tea in a kettle cools slowly but cools faster in cup<br><br>​
skad [1K]

Explanation:

Tea cools faster in a cup than in a kettle because when it is on a cup it is more spread out so the cooler air around it is able to cool down each molecule faster than if it were in a kettle which is cooling down slower because the tea is not a spread out

2 differences between calorimeter and thermometer ?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Calorimeter is used to measure heat in and represents that in units of joules per kelvin units J/˚C or kJ/K

A calorimeter is can be used to measure the amount of heat released or involved in a chemical reaction.

Whereas thermometer can only measures temperature or hotness of a substance. It cannot be used to measure the thermal rate or amount of heat energy of a reaction. Unit measurement used by thermometer is Celsius (°C).

20.Two balls are in motion. A 2-kg ball moving at 4m/s and a 4-kg ball moving at 2m/s, which one has greater kinetic energy? a.
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Given that two balls are in motion. A 2-kg ball moving at 4m/s and a 4-kg ball moving at 2m/s, which one has greater kinetic energy? a. 2 kg ball moving at 4 m/s c. Both balls have the same KE b. 4 kg ball moving at 2 m/s d. Cannot be determined

The formula for kinetic energy is :

K.E = 1/2mv^2

A 2-kg ball moving at 4m/s will have kinetic energy of 1/2 × 2 × 4^2

K.E = 16J

and a 4-kg ball moving at 2m/s will have kinetic energy of 1/2 × 4 × 2^2

K.E = 2 × 4

K.E = 8J

which one has greater kinetic energy? Definitely it is a 2 kg ball moving at 4 m/s. Since 16J is greater than 8J. The correct answer is A.
