Answer:

work

Explanation:

In physics, work is a term that measures the energy expended in a moving object; most commonly force times distance. No work is said to be done if the object does not move. However, during the process, a measure of energy is usually extracted in the process.

Answer:

y = 10.2 m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, $q_1=-3\ nC$

It is placed at a distance of 9 cm at x axis

Charge, $q_2=+4\ nC$

It is placed at a distance of 16 cm at x axis

We need to find the point on the y-axis where the electric potential zero. The net potential on y-axis is equal to 0. So,

$\dfrac{kq_1}{r_1}+\dfrac{kq_2}{r_2}=0$

Here,

$r_1=\sqrt{y^2+9^2} \\\\r_2=\sqrt{y^2+15^2}$

So,

$\dfrac{kq_1}{r_1}=-\dfrac{kq_2}{r_2}\\\\\dfrac{q_1}{r_1}=-\dfrac{q_2}{r_2}\\\\\dfrac{-3\ nC}{\sqrt{y^2+81} }=-\dfrac{4\ nC}{\sqrt{y^2+225} }\\\\3\times \sqrt{y^2+225}=4\times \sqrt{y^2+81}$
