Answer:

a)  [volts] = [N m / C],

b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential

c) the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines

Explanation:

a) find the units of the volt

the electric potential energy is

             V = k q / r

             V = [N m² / C²] C / m

              V = [N m / C]

The electric potential is defined as

             V = E .s

             V = [N / C] [m]

             V = [N m / C] = [volt]

we see that in the two expressions the same result is obtained therefore the volt is

            [volts] = [N m / C]

b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential surfaces, the great utility of these lines or surfaces is that a face can be displaced on it without doing work.

c) The electric potential is defined as the gradient of the electric field

             v =  - \frac{dE}{dx} i^

therefore the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines

39. What is the change in momentum for a 5,000 kg ship in
Ivan

Answer:

Change in momentum is zero.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 5000 kg

Time (t) = 1 h

Net force (F) = 0

Change in momentum =?

Force = Rate of change of momentum

0 = change in momentum

Change in momentum = 0

We can see from the above illustration that the net force is zero. Thus, the change in momentum is also zero.

Technician a says that some passenger vehicles use more than one evaporator. technician b says that some passenger vehicles use
dybincka [34]
<span>Tech A is correct. An evaporator is part of the heat exchange system in a vehicle. Sometimes vehicles will have more than one evaporator, each located in different areas of the vehicle. A condenser is part of the air conditioner system, and only one is normally required.</span>

Based on Archimedes' principle, we know that if an object displaces a given weight of water, then the object is being buoyed up
Virty [35]
True. If the amount displaced is more than the mass, it floats. If the amount is less than the mass, it will sink.
