The electric potential difference is 7.5 V.

Electric potential difference between two points is defined as the work done in moving unit positive charge between the two points. Electric potential difference can also be defined as the work done W per unit charge q in an electric field.

\Delta V=\frac{W}{q}......(1)

Work done by a force is the product of the force F and the displacement s made in the direction of the force. Assuming that the displacement is parallel to the line of action of the force,

W=F.s......(2)

Rewrite equation (1) using equation (2).

\Delta V=\frac{Fs}{q}......(3)

Substitute the given values of force, displacement and charge in the equation (3).

\Delta V=\frac{Fs}{q}\\ =\frac{(25*10^-^6N)(15m)}{(50*10^-^6C)} \\ =7.5V

The potential difference between the two points is 7.5 V

A point charge q1=+5.00nC is at the fixed position x=0, y=0, z=0. You find that you must do 8.10×10−6J of work to bring a second
Maru [420]

The value of the second charge is 1.2 nC.

<h3>Electric potential</h3>

The work done in moving the charge from infinity to the given position is calculated as follows;

W = Eq₂

E = W/q₂

<h3>Magnitude of second charge</h3>

The magnitude of the second charge is determined by applying Coulomb's law.

E = \frac{kq_2}{r^2} \\\\\frac{kq_2}{r^2} = \frac{W}{q_2} \\\\kq_2^2 = Wr^2\\\\q_2^2 = \frac{Wr^2}{k} \\\\q_2 = \sqrt{\frac{Wr^2}{k} } \\\\q_2 =  \sqrt{\frac{(8.1 \times 10^{-6}) \times (0.04)^2}{9\times 10^9} } \\\\q_2 = 1.2 \times 10^{-9} \ C\\\\q_2 = 1.2 \ nC

Thus, the  value of the second charge is 1.2 nC.

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

A) d_o = 20.7 cm

B) h_i = 1.014 m

Explanation:

A) To solve this, we will use the lens equation formula;

1/f = 1/d_o + 1/d_i

Where;

f is focal Length = 20 cm = 0.2

d_o is object distance

d_i is image distance = 6m

1/0.2 = 1/d_o + 1/6

1/d_o = 1/0.2 - 1/6

1/d_o = 4.8333

d_o = 1/4.8333

d_o = 0.207 m

d_o = 20.7 cm

B) to solve this, we will use the magnification equation;

M = h_i/h_o = d_i/d_o

Where;

h_o = 3.5 cm = 0.035 m

d_i = 6 m

d_o = 20.7 cm = 0.207 m

Thus;

h_i = (6/0.207) × 0.035

h_i = 1.014 m

Arrange the following substances in order of decreasing magnitude of lattice energy.
kolbaska11 [484]
The formula is F = ( q1 * q2 ) / r ^ 2 
<span>where: q is the individual charges of each ion </span>
<span>r is the distance between the nuclei </span>
<span>The formula is not important but to explain the relationship between the atoms in the compounds and their lattice energy. </span>

<span>From the formula we can first conclude that compounds of ions with greater charges will have a greater lattice energy. This is a direct relationship. </span>
<span>For example, the compounds BaO and SrO, whose ions' charges are ( + 2 ) and ( - 2 ) respectively for each, will have greater lattice energies that the compounds NaF and KCl, whose ions' charges are ( + 1 ) and ( - 1 ) respectively for each. </span>

<span>So Far: ( BaO and SrO ) > ( NaF and KCl ) </span>

<span>The second part required you find the relative distance between the atoms of the compounds. Really, the lattice energy is stronger with smaller atoms, an indirect relationship. </span>
<span>For example, in NaF the ions are smaller than the ions in KCl so it has a greater lattice energy. Because Sr is smaller than Ba, SrO has a greater lattice energy than BaO. </span>

<span>Therefore: </span>
<span>Answer: SrO > BaO > NaF > KCl </span>
