Answer:

U = 0.413 J

Explanation:

the potential energy between two charges q1 and q2 is given by the following formula:

U=k\frac{q_1q_2}{r}    (1)

k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9 NM^2/C^2

q1: first charge = 4.6 μC = 4.6*10^-6 C

q2: second charge = 1.0 μC*10^-6 C

r: distance between charges = 10.0 cm = 0.10 m

You replace the values of all variables in the equation (1):

U=(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)\frac{(4.6*10^{-6}C)(1.0*10^{-6}C)}{0.10m}=0.413\ J

Hence, the energy between charges is 0.413 J

The average distance from the sun to Pluto is approximately 6.10 × 109 km. How long does it take light from 
Scorpion4ik [409]
V= \frac{S}{t}
t= \frac{S}{V}<u />
t= \frac{S}{c}
t= \frac{6.1*10^{12}}{299792458}
t=20347.4098071s

It takes 20347.4098071s for light from the sun to reach Pluto.
The 6.1*10^9 is replaced by 6.1*10^12 on line 4 because we convert the distance from km to m. 
c = speed of light. If a different value was given in the previous question then use that instead of the value I used to do the final calculation.

lianna [129]

Answer:

1800 kg

Explanation:

Newton's second law:

F = ma

10000 N = m (5.5 m/s²)

m ≈ 1800 kg
