Consider a situation in which you are moving two point charges such that the potential energy between them decreases. (NOTE: ign

ore gravity).
This means that you are moving the charges:
a) Closer to each other
b) Farther apart
c) Either A or B

Oxana [17]3 years ago

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The potential energy decreases in the case when the charges are opposite and they attract each other.

In this case there is no external energy required in order to put the charges together.

This is so because the charges are opposite and they will attract each other. Yes, the only condition should be that the charges should be alike.

Example: a negative charge and a positive charge.

On a part-time job, you are asked to bring a cylindrical iron rod of density 7800 kg/m3, length 88.8 cm and diameter 2.30 cm fro
vichka [17]

Answer:

w = 28.25 N

Explanation:

To do this, we need to use two expressions.

First, to calculate the weight of any object, we use the 2nd law of newton. In this case, the weight is:

w = m*g  (1)

However we do not have the mass of the rod. We need to calculate that. To calculate the mass, we'll use the expression of density which is:

d = m/V  

From here, we solve for mass:

m = d * V   (2)

Finally, we can know the volume of the rod, because is cylindrical, therefore, the volume of a cylinder is:

V = π * r² * h   (3)

So, in resume, we need to solve for the volume of the rod, then, the mass ans finally the weight. Let's calculate the volume of the rod, converting the units of centimeter to meters, just dividing by 100:

diameter = 2.3 cm ---> radius = 2.3/2 = 1.15 cm -----> 0.0115 m

Length or height = 88.8 cm ----> 0.888 m

Replacing in (3):

V = π * (0.0115)² * 0.888

V = 3.69x10⁻⁴ m

Now, let's use (2) to calculate the mass:

m = 7800 * 3.69x10⁻⁴

m = 2.88 kg

Finally for the weight, we'll use expression (1):

w = 2.88 * 9.81

<h2>w = 28.25 N</h2><h2>And this is the weight of the rod.</h2>

____________occurs when an object travels in a curved path.
labwork [276]

Answer:

Acceleration

Explanation:

can you mark me  brainlies

So, if an object travels in a curved path, it changes velocity, and, thus, accelerates. This acceleration must be tied to a force. ... Therefore, whenever an object travels in a curved path, there must be an unbalanced force acting upon it. It is important to understand that all this may occur without a change in speed.t

B)A man walks 95 km, East, then 55 km, north. Calculate his RESULTANT
Varvara68 [4.7K]

The resultant displacement of the man is 109.77 km in the direction N60°E.

<h3>Displacement</h3>

Displacement is the distance travelled in a specified direction.

To calculate displacement, the straight line from starting point to end point of travel is taken and calculated.

<h3>Resultant displacement of the man </h3>

In the example above, a man walks 95 km, East, then 55 km, north.

The two distances form a right-angled triangle with two sides 95 and 55 units. The hypotenuse gives the resultant displacement, D.

Using Pythagoras rule:

D^2 = 95^2 + 55^2

D^2 = 12050

D = 109.77

Thus, the resultant displacement is 109.77 km

To calculate the direction:

Let the direction be y

y + x = 90°

tan x = 55/95

tanx x = 0.578

x = 30°

Then, y = 90 - 30

y = 60°

Therefore, the resultant displacement of the man is 109.77 km in the direction N60°E.
