A sphere with a charge q is fixed at the bottom left corner of the right triangle shown in the figure. Points P and R are at the

location shown. A test charge is place at point P, and the charge-sphere system has potential energy U0. If the test charge is then moved to point R, what will the potential energy of the charge-sphere system be? ​

Answer:

the final potential energy of this system is 3U0/10

Explanation:

We are given

charge at left end  and another test charge at point p

Potential energy is given by  = \frac{k*Q1*Q2 }{R}

where k is electrostatics constant = 9 *10^9

Q1 = first charge , Q2=  test charge

R= distance between charges

potential at point p

U0 = k*Q1*Q2 /3 ⇒ kq1q2 = 3U0 ..............1

now the test charge moves to point R

using Pytahgoreou theorem

R(distance) = \sqrt{8^2 + 6^2} = 10

New Potential energy

U1 = kq1*q2 / 10

substituting  kq1q2 = 3U0 from 1

U1 = 3U0/10

So this is the final potential energy of this system.

1. How much force is needed to accelerate a 66 kg skier<br> at 2 m/sec2?
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

<h2>132 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 66 × 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>132 N</h3>

Perpetual motion machines have fascinated people especially inventors for hundreds of years before the laws of thermodynamics be
Cerrena [4.2K]

Given the fact that energy conversion is not entirely efficient, it is impossible to produce a perpetual motion machine.

<h3>What is a perpetual motion machine?</h3>

The perpetual motion machine in one that is able to work continuously without stopping. This would mean that the efficiency of this machine must that the machine is 100% efficient which violates the second law of thermodynamics.

Thus, given the fact that energy conversion is not entirely efficient and energy looses cause machines not function effectively, it is impossible to produce a perpetual motion machine.

A 20kg object acceleration by a force of 200N with coefficient of kineticfriction is 0.4 what is acceleration of the object?​
Schach [20]

Answer:

<u>Given</u><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><u>M</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u>20 kg

k = 0.4

F = 200 N

<u>To </u><u>find </u><u>-</u><u> </u> acceleration

<u>Solution </u><u>-</u><u> </u>

F= kMA

200 = 0.4 * 20 * acceleration

200 = 8 * a

a = 8/200

a = 0.04 m s²

<h3>a = 0.04 m s²</h3>
