If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, what is the direction of the force on the test charge?

1 answer:

6 0

Explanation:

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, it will exert the force in the test charge in the direction of electric field vector. We know that the direction of electric field is given by electric field lines. The field lines for a positive charge is outwards. The electric force acting on the charge is given by :

F = q E

Hence, this is the required solution.

If wave A has twice the amplitude and three times the frequency as wave B, then the energy carried by wave A must be ____ times

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

4 times

Explanation:

As we know that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave,

Here, the amplitude of the wave A is twice as compared to B.

So, the energy of wave A is 4 times the energy of wave B.

Alfred pushes on a heavy box, but cannot move it. The box has a lot of _____. inertia motion friction gravity

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Inertia

Explanation:

Inertia is best defined as the ability of an object to resist a change in position or movement. That is why when an object has a higher mass, the higher the inertia. Imagine an oncoming truck that is fully loaded versus you. The tendency for the truck to change its movement would be difficult because of its its mass. It has a lot of inertia.
