Two particles with charges are initially very far apart (effectively an infinite distance apart). They are then fixed at positio

ns that are apart. What is which is the change in the electric potential energy?

Answer:

potential energy increases.

Explanation:

The potential energy between the two charged particles is given by

U = k Q q / r

If they are very far apart then r tends to infinity and the potential energy is zero.

If they come closer then the potential energy between the two charged particles increases.

Thus, the potential energy increases.

The total displacement of the toy car at the given positions is 0.

The given parameters;

  • <em>First displacement of the car, = 5 cm left</em>
  • <em>Second displacement of the car, = 8 cm right</em>
  • <em>Third displacement of the car, = 3 cm to the left</em>

The total displacement of the car is calculated as follows;

  • <em>Let the </em><em>left </em><em>direction be "</em><em>negative </em><em>direction"</em>
  • <em>Let the </em><em>right </em><em>direction be "</em><em>positive </em><em>direction"</em>

\Delta x = - \ 5\ cm  \ + \ 8 \ cm \ - \ 3 \ cm \\\\\Delta x = 0

Thus, the total displacement of the toy car at the given positions is 0.

g If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance, what should that resi
Anettt [7]
<h2>Question:</h2>

In this circuit the resistance R1 is 3Ω, R2 is 7Ω, and R3 is 7Ω. If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance, what should that resistance be?

Answer:

9.1Ω

Explanation:

The circuit diagram has been attached to this response.

(i) From the diagram, resistors R1 and R2 are connected in parallel to each other. The reciprocal of their equivalent resistance, say Rₓ, is the sum of the reciprocals of the resistances of each of them. i.e

\frac{1}{R_X} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2}

=> R_{X} = \frac{R_1 * R_2}{R_1 + R_2}             ------------(i)

From the question;

R1 = 3Ω,

R2 = 7Ω

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

R_{X} = \frac{3 * 7}{3 + 7}

R_{X} = \frac{21}{10}

R_{X} = 2.1Ω

(ii) Now, since we have found the equivalent resistance (Rₓ) of R1 and R2, this resistance (Rₓ) is in series with the third resistor. i.e Rₓ and R3 are connected in series. This is shown in the second image attached to this response.

Because these resistors are connected in series, they can be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance R. Where R is the sum of the resistances of the two resistors: Rₓ and R3. i.e

R = Rₓ + R3

Rₓ = 2.1Ω

R3 = 7Ω

=> R = 2.1Ω + 7Ω = 9.1Ω

Therefore, the combination of the resistors R1, R2 and R3 can be replaced with a single resistor with an equivalent resistance of 9.1Ω
