Answer: They are equal in magnitude.

- The signs of the two changes in potential energy are opposite

Explanation:

When the proton and electron both move through the same displacement in an electric field, the change in potential energy that is associated with the proton is equal in magnitude.

Also, it should be noted that the signs of the two changes in potential energy are opposite.

How much heat is lost by 2.0 grams of water if the temperature drops from 31 °C to 29 °C? The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/
Elanso [62]

Given :

Mass of water, m = 2 grams.

The temperature of water drops from 31 °C to 29 °C .

The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g • °C).

To Find :

Amount of heat lost in this process.

Solution :

We know, heat lost is given by :

Heat\ lost,H = ms( T_f - T_i)\\\\H = 2\times 4.184 \times ( 31 - 29 )\ J\\\\H = 16.736\ J

Therefore, amount of heat lost in this process is 16.736 J.

labwork [276]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

Since v = dx/dt = 200t

I took the integral of dx = integral of 200t dt

and I got x = 100t^2 + C

So I plugged in 0.5 as t and got x = 25

So x = 25 miles

Which is an example of something heated by conduction
hodyreva [135]
An example would be a pot on a stove. The radiation from the source of the heat (the stove) would make the handle hot by conduction from heat through contact.

Another example could be a metal spoon in a hot cup of coffee. The coffee itself is hot, but since the spoon is in the coffee and making contact, part of the spoon will become hot from the radiation of the source of heat (the hot coffee). Thus, conduction.
