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

An apple with mass 0.4 kg is hanging at rest from the lower end of a light vertical rope. A dart of mass 0.1 kg is shot vertical
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The speed of the apple just after the collision is 1m/s

Explanation:

Since the two bodies collided, we will apply the law of conservation of momentum to find their common velocity which states that the sum of momentum of the bodies before collision is equal to the sum of momentum of the bodies after collision. After collision both bodies will move with a common velocity v.

Given momentum = mass × velocity

Initial momentum of the 0.4kg apple hanging at rest will be;

Momentum = 0.4kg×0m/s = 0kgm/s (the velocity of apple is 0m/s since it is hanging at rest)

Initial momentum of the 0.1kg dart moving with speed of 5m/s will be;

Momentum of dart = 0.1kg × 5m/s

Momentum of dart = 0.5kgm/s

Momentum of the bodies after collision will give;

Momentum after collision = (0.4kg+0.1kg) × v (v is their common velocity)

Momentum after collision = 0.5v

Using the law of conservation of momentum to calculate their common velocity, we will have;

0+0.5 = 0.5v

0.5 = 0.5v

v = 0.5/0.5

v = 1m/s

Therefore the speed of both bodies after collision is 1m/s which will also serve as the speed of the apple after collision.

Calculate the KE of a 3.1 kg toy cart that moves at 4.8 m/s. Calculate the KE of the same cart at twice the speed.
lisov135 [29]
When v= 4.8 m/s:

E.K=mv²/2
      =3,1(4.8)²/2
      =35.712J

when v= 2(4.8):

E.K=mv²/2
      =3.1(9.6)²/2
      =142.848J

What energy transformation do batteries perform?
zalisa [80]

Answer: Option B) chemical --> electrical

Explanation:

Batteries convert their stored chemical energy into electrical energy in order to power appliances.

So, the conversion of chemical energy to electrical energy explains how energy is conserved in nature, such that energy is neither created nor destroyed.
