Answer:
Drilling into the seafloor off Mexico, scientists have extracted a unique geologic record of the single worst day in the history of life on Earth, when a city-sized asteroid smashed into the planet 65 million years ago, wiping out the dinosaurs and three-quarters of all other life.
Their analysis of these new rock samples from the Chicxulub crater, made public Monday, reveals a parfait of debris deposited in layers almost minute-by-minute at the heart of the impact during the first day of a global catastrophe. It records traces of the explosive melting, massive earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides and wildfires as the immense asteroid blasted a hole 100 miles wide and 12 miles deep, the scientists said.
Answer:
The equation that will relate all the given parameters, in other to calculate the potential energy of charge A is:
∆V = ∆U/q, ∆V is potential at charge A position, q is magnitude of charge A, ∆U will be made the subject of the relation, which is the Potential Energy of charge A. The notation "∆" show, the quantities have both in values and final values, in the electric field.(Change in Electric potential and potential energy, due to the effect of the field)
Explanation:
The potential energy of a charged particle (Charge A) in an electric field depends on the magnitude of the charge(Known as stated in the question). However, the potential energy per unit charge has a unique value at any point in the electric field.
Answer:
The answer is based on the conservation of energy law; something you should really understand by now.
For convenience we can hold one of the two charges still; it becomes the frame of reference. And everything we say is in reference to the designated static charge, call it Q.
So the moving charge, call it q, has total energy TE = PE. It's all potential energy as we start with q not moving.
It has potential energy because in order to separate q from Q, we had to do work, add energy, on q. And from the COE law, that work added is converted into PE.
It's a bit like lifting something off the ground. That's work and it becomes GPE. So there's some work, in separating the two charges in the first place.
But there's more.
Now we let q go. As opposites attract, q is pulled to Q. And that force from Q is working on q, force over distance. Which means the potential energy q started with is being converted into kinetic energy. q is accelerating and picking up speed.
And there's more work, done by the EMF on charge q. That converts the PE into KE and the q charge smashes into Q with some kinetic energy.
Answer:
How can smoking affect the respiratory system?
Smoking and Respiratory Disease
Smoking can cause lung disease by damaging your airways and the small air sacs (alveoli) found in your lungs. Lung diseases caused by smoking include COPD, which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smoking causes most cases of lung cancer.
