Gravity, which acts downward on the object and its buoyant force that acts upwards and is dependent on weight of the volume of water displaced by the object.

Technically, this delivers a lot of energy into the Earth, but it’s spread out over a large enough area that it doesn’t do much more than leave footprints in a lot of gardens. A slight pulse of pressure spreads through the North American continental crust and dissipates with little effect. The sound of all those feet hitting the ground creates a loud, drawn-out roar which lasts many seconds.

Rocks A and B are located at the same height on top of a hill. The mass of rock A is twice the mass of rock B. How does the pote
Ronch [10]

Potential energy is defined by formula

U = mgh

here

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

Now here two different stones are located at same height

while mass of stone A is twice that of stone B

so here we can say potential energy of A is

U_a = (2m)gh

Similarly potential energy of B is

U_b = mgh

now if we take the ratio of two energy

\frac{U_a}{U_b} = 2

so we can say potential energy of stone A is two times the potential energy of B

two-point charges are 10.0 cm apart and have charges of 2.0 uc and -2.0uc respectively What is the magnitude of the electrical f
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Electric field due to two charges is given as

E = 1.44 \times 10^7 N/C

Explanation:

As we know that two charges are opposite in nature

So the electric field at the mid point of two charges will add together

so the net field is given as

E = 2\frac{kq}{r^2}

now we have

q = 2\times 10^{-6} C

r = 5 cm = 0.05 m

now we have

E = 2\frac{(9\times 10^9)(2\times 10^{-6})}{0.05^2}

E = 1.44 \times 10^7 N/C
