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

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.

Sergio039 [100]
The answer is true: the pressure of a gas will decrease as temperature decreases in a rigid container.

This is one of the central gas laws called the Gay-Lussac law that states for a given gas at a constant volume, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its temperature. We also know that as temperature reduces, so too does molecular interaction. Increased temperature results in increased pressure, and decreased temperature therefore results in decreased pressure.

Suddenly a worker picks up the bag of gravel. Use energy conservation to find the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.3
fiasKO [112]

Explanation:

A worker picks up the bag of gravel. We need to find the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.30 m from rest. It is case of conservation of energy. So,

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh}

h = 2.3 m

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.3} \\\\v=6.71\ m/s

So, the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.30 m from rest is 6.71 m/s.
