Opportunity cost refers to what you have to give up to buy what you want in terms of other goods or services. When economists use the word “cost,” we usually mean opportunity cost.

Two uncharged metal spheres, spaced 25.0 cm apart, have a capacitance of 26.0 pF. How much work would it take to move 12.0 nC of

viktelen [127]

Answer:

$W=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J$

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between two spheres, r = 25 cm = 0.25 m

The capacitance, C = 26 pF = 26×10⁻¹² F

Charge, Q = 12 nC = 12 × 10⁻⁹ C

We need to find the work done in moving the charge. We know that, work done is given by :

$U=\dfrac{Q^2}{2C}$

Put all the values,

$U=\dfrac{(12\times 10^{-9})^2}{2\times 26\times 10^{-12}}\\\\U=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J$

So, the work done is $2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J$ .

An electron with a speed of 1.2 × 107 m/s moves horizontally into a region where a constant vertical force of 5.2 × 10-16 N acts

Aliun [14]

Answer: 0.642mm

Explanation: F= force = 5.2×10^-16 N,

v = velocity of electron = 1.2×10^7 m/s,

m = mass of electron = 9.11×10^-31 kg.

We will assume the motion of the object to be of a constant acceleration, hence newton's laws of motion is applicable.

Recall that f = ma.

Where a = acceleration

This acceleration of vertical because it occurred when the object deflected.

5.2×10^-16 = 9.11×10^-31 (ay)

ay = 5.2×10^-16 / 9.11×10^-31

ay = 5.71×10^14 m/s²

For the horizontal motion, x = vt

Where x = horizontal distance = 0.019m and v is the velocity = 1.2×10^7 m/s,

By substituting the parameters, we have that

0.019 = 1.27×10^7 × t

t = 0.019 / 1.27 × 10^7

t = 1.5×10^-9 s

The vertical distance (y) is gotten by using the formulae below

y = ut + at²/2

but u = 0

y = at²/2

y = 5.71×10^14 × (1.5×10^-9)²/2

y = 0.00128475/2

y = 0.000642m = 0.642mm

What change will always result in an increase in gravitational force between two objects

tekilochka [14]

The gravitational force between two object depends on their masses and on their distance.

Since the formula is

$F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{d^2}$

If the masses grow, the force also grows. But I'm assuming the two objects are fixed, so you can't enlarge their mass.

So, the only option remaining is to lower their distance: since it sits at the denominator, a smaller value of d results in a bigger value for F.

So, if you reduce the distance between two objects, the gravitational force between them will always result in an increase
