djyliett [7]

Answer:

A) The particle will accelerate in the direction of point C.

Explanation:

As we know that

potential at points A, B,C and D as V_A, V_B, V_C, V_D  and it is clear from the question that

V_A>V_B>V_C

And we know that flow is always from higher to lower potential (for positive charge due to positive potential energy).

So the charge will accelerate from B toward C.

Hence, the correct option is A.

If you drop a silver dollar off a building and it hits the ground in 10 seconds, how fast was the coin going just before it hit?
Illusion [34]
Objects in free fall, disregarding terminal velocity, accelerate at 9.8(m/s)/s. so for every second it was falling, it gained 9.8m/s in speed. 9.8 * 10 = 98m/s

How do fluids excert pressure​
Artyom0805 [142]

All fluids exert pressure like the air inside a tire. The particles of fluids are constantly moving in all directions at random. As the particles move, they keep bumping into each other and into anything else in their path. These collisions cause pressure, and the pressure is exerted equally in all directions.
