Answer:

Work done by the electrostatic force will be positive

Kinetic energy of two charges will increase

Electrostatic potential energy will decrease

Explanation:

Electrostatic potential energy of system of two charges is given as

U = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r}

here we know that

q_1, q_2 = two charges between which interaction is required

r = distance between two charges

now if it is given that a positive charge is moved due to nearby negative charge

so since we know that negative charge will attracted towards to positive charge due to mutual attraction force between them

so here the force of attraction between them will do positive work to move the two charges near to each other

This work done will increase the kinetic energy of the system of two charges

Since there is no external force on the system of two charges so total mechanical energy will remain conserved and hence we can say if kinetic energy is increasing so electrostatic potential energy will decrease for this system

The energy changes involved when a positive charge moves because of a nearby, negatively charged object because that is actually similar to when an object falls in a gravitational field, the potential energy of the object will turn in to a kinetic energy. thank you for this question.

20 cubic inches of a gas with an absolute pressure of 5 psi is compressed until its pressure reaches 10 psi. What's the new volu
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

B. V_{f}= 10\,cubic\,inches

Explanation:

Assuming we are dealing with a perfect gas, we should use the perfect gas equation:

PV=nRT

With T the temperature, V the volume, P the pressure, R the perfect gas constant and n the number of mol, we are going to use the subscripts i for the initial state when the gas has 20 cubic inches of volume and absolute pressure of 5 psi, and final state when the gas reaches 10 psi, so we have two equations:

P_{i}V_{i}=n_{i}RT_{i} (1)

P_{f}V_{f}=n_{f}RT_{f} (2)

Assuming the temperature and the number of moles remain constant (number of moles remain constant if we don't have a leak of gas) we should equate equations (1) and (2) because T_{i}=T_{f}, n_{i}=n_{f} and R is an universal constant:

P_{i}V_{i}= P_{f}V_{f}, solving for V_{f}

V_{f} =\frac{P_{i}V_{i}}{P_{f}} =\frac{(5)(20)}{10}

V_{f}= 10 cubic\,inches

A 20-kg child running at 1.4 m/s jumps onto a playground merry-go-round that has mass 180 kg and radius 1.6m. She is moving tang
Dominik [7]

Answer:

ωf = 0.16 rad/s

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of the child = mr² = 20(1.6²) = 51.2 kg•m²

Moment of Inertia of the MGR = ½mr² = ½(180)1.6² = 230.4 kg•m²

(ASSUMING it is a uniform disk)

Initial angular momentum of the child = Iω = I(v/r) = 51.2(1.4/1.6) = 44.8 kg•m²/s

Conservation of angular momentum

44.8 = (51.2 + 230.4)ωf

ωf = 0.15909090...

A curve of radius 53.1 m is banked so that a car of mass 2.9 Mg traveling with uniform speed 67 km/hr can round the curve withou
prisoha [69]

Answer:

33.65°

Explanation:

radius, r = 53.1 m

m = 2.9 Mg = 2.9 x 10^6 g = 2900 kg

v = 67 km/h

convert km/h into m/s

v = 18.61 m/s

Let the angle of banking of road is θ, without friction

tan\theta =\frac{v^{2}}{rg}

tan\theta =\frac{18.61^{2}}{53.1\times 9.8}

tan  θ = 0.6655

θ = 33.65°

Thus, the angle of banking of road is 33.65°.

Who exerts more pressure? a) A girl of 50 kg, wearing heels with an area of 1 cm2. b) An elephant of 4000 kg with foot area of 2
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The girl exerts more pressure.

Explanation:

Pressure can be defined as the force exerted normally or perpendicularly per unit area.

i.e P = F/A

<u>Girls</u>

Area of the heel = 1cm² = 10^(-4) m²

Force = mg = 50 × 10 = 500N

Pressure =

\frac{500}{10 ^{ - 4} }

= 5 \times  {10}^{6}
