A moving particle encounters an external electric field that decreases its kinetic energy from 9520 eV to 7060 eV as the particl

e moves from position A to position B. The electric potential at A is -55.0 V, and the electric potential at B is +27.0 V. Determine the charge of the particle. Include the algebraic sign ( + or - ) with your answer.

Given Information:

KEa = 9520 eV

KEb = 7060 eV

Electric potential = Va = -55 V

Electric potential = Vb = +27 V

Required Information:

Charge of the particle = q = ?

Answer:

Charge of the particle = +4.8x10⁻¹⁸ C

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy, we have

ΔKE = -qΔV

KEb - KEa = -q(Vb - Va)

-q = KEb - KEa/Vb - Va

-q = 7060 - 9520/27 - (-55)

-q = 7060 - 9520/27 + 55

-q = -2460/82

minus sign cancels out

q = 2460/82

Convert eV into Joules by multiplying it with 1.60x10⁻¹⁹

q = 2460(1.60x10⁻¹⁹)/82

q = +4.8x10⁻¹⁸ C

The second law of motion states that: the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables: - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object. The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object

<h3>Meaning of Motion</h3>

Motion can be defined as the process of changing position willingly or due to a force applied.

Motion can be seen in different forms and types depending on the object.

In conclusion, The second law of motion is used to deduce the formula for acceleration.

in the diagram the solid eventually becomes a gas what will happen to bring the substance from a solid to a gas
Ratling [72]
Since there is no diagram I can see to prove my answer, I must infer that a heat source should be applied to the solid substance and cause the atoms in the solid to spread further apart and become a different state, in which atoms will be able to freely move, gas.

Answer:

Kevin wants to make the firm private

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question in regards to the situation it seems that Kevin wants to make the firm private. Private Firms are companies that are owned by non-governmental entities or instead owned by  a single individual or a very small amount of shareholders. Which is what Kevin seems to be wanting to do since he wants to buy back all the shares of the company so that only his family owns the company.
