Oxana [17]3 years ago
5 0

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.

What is the difference between real and apparent weightlessness?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

In space we feel weightlessness because the earth's gravity has less effect on us. The Earth's gravitational attraction at those altitudes is only about 11% less than it is at the Earth's surface. If you had a ladder that could reach as high as the shuttle's orbit, your weight would be 11% less at the top.

Explanation:

Hope this helps:)

A Heavy crate applied a force of 1500 N on a 25m2 piston. What force needs to be applied on a 0.8m2 piston to lift the crate?
Aleks04 [339]
25/1500 is equal to 0.8/x
0.8*1500 is equal to 1200
1200/25 is equal to 48 N

1.The distance moved by objects in a given interval of time can help us to decide which one is faster or slower. Do you agree wi
shutvik [7]

Answer:

The rate of change of distance is defined as speed.

Explanation:

The speed is defined as the rate of change of distance.

Speed = distance/ time

When we know the distance and the time, we get the value of speed. So, e know that who is moving fast or slow.

hen a graph is pltted beteen the distance and time, the slope of the graph gives the value of speed. So, by checking the slopes, hoseslope ismore, the speed is more and thusit is moving faster.

So, i agree with the statement.
