Answer:

Work done by the electric force as one of the charges moves to an empty corner is 25.71 KJ

Explanation:

Work done on a unit positive charge = Electric field potential X distance moved by the charge.

Electric field potential = (Kq)/r²

Where;

k is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

q is magnitude of point charge = 4.0 x 10⁻⁶ C

r is the distance between the point charges = 0.715 m

Then, Work done on a unit positive charge =  (Kq)/r² X r

Work done on a unit positive charge = (kq)/r

Work done on a unit positive charge = (8.99 X 10⁹ X 4.0 x 10⁻⁶)/0.715

Work done on a unit positive charge = 25.71 X 10³ J = 25.71 KJ

Therefore, work done by the electric force as one of the charges moves to an empty corner is 25.71 KJ

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The chemical formula for the molecule is C_4H_9O_2

Explanation :

Molecular formula : It is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Structural formula : It is a formula in which the lines are used between the bonded atoms and the atoms are also shown in the structural formula.

In the structural formula, the lines are used between the atoms.

As per given information of compound we conclude that, there are 4 carbon atoms, 9 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms.

Thus, the chemical formula for the given molecule will be,  C_4H_9O_2

in an automobile crash, a vehicle that was stopped at a red light is rear-ended by another vehicle. The vehicles have the same m
baherus [9]

The initial speed of the vehicle before the collision is 8 m/s.

  • Let the mass of the vehicle = m
  • Let the initial speed of the vehicle stopped = u
  • The initial speed of the vehicle parked at the red light = 0

<h3>Principle of conservation of linear momentum</h3>
  • The initial speed of the vehicle before the collision is calculated by applying principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = v(m_1 + m_2)\\\\mu + m(0) = 4(m+ m)\\\\mu = 4(2m)\\\\mu = 8m\\\\u = 8 \ m/s

Thus, the initial speed of the vehicle before the collision is 8 m/s.

What does the phrase "1 meter per second per second" means? A. The velocity of an object can increase by 1 meter per second, for
OLga [1]

Explanation:

"1 meter per second per second" means acceleration of an object. It is equal to the rate of change of velocity. Its SI unit is m/s^2.

It is simply given by :

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

dv is change in velocity

dt is small interval of time

"1 meter per second per second" means that the velocity of an object can increase by 1 meter per second.
