What is the change in electric potential energy when the dipole moment of a molecule changes its orientation with respect to e⃗

from parallel to perpendicular?

AleksandrR [38]3 years ago

Electric potential energy of a dipole is given as

U = - P.E

U = - PE cos\theta

so change in the potential energy is given by

U_f - U_i = (-PEcos\theta_2)- (-PEcos\theta_1)

\Delta U = PE (cos\theta_1 - cos\theta_2)

here initially it was parallel to electric field while finally it is perpendicular to the electric field

so we have

\Delta U = PE(cos 0 - cos 90)

\Delta U = PE

so above is the change in potential energy of dipole

This Question is not complete

Complete Question:

a. A hawk flies in a horizontal arc of radius 11.3 m at a constant speed of 5.7 m/s. Find its centripetal acceleration.

Answer in units of m/s2

b. It continues to fly along the same horizontal arc but increases its speed at the rate of 1.34 m/s2. Find the magnitude of acceleration under

these new conditions.

Answer in units of m/s2

Answer:

a. 2.875m/s²

b. 3.172m/s²

Explanation:

a. The formula for centripetal acceleration = (speed²) ÷ radius

Centripetal acceleration = (5.7m/s)²÷ 11.3m

Centripetal acceleration = 2.875m/s²

b. Magnitude of acceleration can be calculated by finding the sum of the vectors for the both the centripetal acceleration and the increase in the speed rate.

Centripetal acceleration ( acceleration x) = 2.875m/s²

Increase in the speed rate ( acceleration n) = 1.34m/s²

Magnitude of acceleration = √a²ₓ + a²ₙ

=√( 2.875m/s²)²+ (1.34m/s²)²

= √ 10.06m/s²

= 3.172m/s²

A 50 Ohm resistance causes a current of 5 milliamps to flow through a circuit connected to a battery. What is the power in the c
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:0.00125 watts

Explanation:

resistance=50 ohms

Current=5 milliamps

Current=5/1000 milliamps

Current =0.005 amps

power=(current)^2 x (resistance)

Power=(0.005)^2 x 50

Power=0.005 x 0.005 x 50

Power=0.00125 watts

A 4.00 kg block is suspended from a spring with k 500 N/m. A 50.0 g bullet is fired into the block from directly below with a sp
Yanka [14]

Answer:

a. A = 0.1656 m

b. % E = 1.219

Explanation:

Given

mB = 4.0 kg , mb = 50.0 g = 0.05 kg , u₁ = 150  m/s , k = 500 N / m

a.

To find the amplitude of the resulting SHM using conserver energy

ΔKe + ΔUg + ΔUs = 0

¹/₂ * m * v²  -  ¹/₂ * k * A² = 0

A = √ mB * vₓ² / k

vₓ = mb * u₁ / mb + mB

vₓ = 0.05 kg * 150 m / s / [0.050 + 4.0 ] kg = 1.8518

A = √ 4.0 kg * (1.852 m/s)²   /   (500 N / m)

A = 0.1656 m

b.

The percentage of kinetic energy

%E = Es / Ek

Es = ¹/₂ * k * A² = 500 N / m * 0.1656²m = 13.72 N*0.5

Ek = ¹/₂ * mb * v² = 0.05 kg * 150² m/s = 1125 N

% E = 13.72 / 1125 = 0.01219 *100

% E = 1.219
