Answer:
Electric potential energy at the negative terminal:
Explanation:
When a particle with charge travels across a potential difference
, then its change in electric potential energy is
In this problem, we know that:
The particle is an electron, so its charge is
We also know that the positive terminal is at potential
While the negative terminal is at potential
Therefore, the potential difference (final minus initial) is
So, the change in potential energy of the electron is
This means that the electron when it is at the negative terminal has of energy more than when it is at the positive terminal.
Since the potential at the positive terminal is 0, this means that the electric potential energy of the electron at the negative end is
Answer:
D)Not enough information
Explanation:
According to Pascal's principle, the pressure exerted on the two pistons is equal:
Pressure is given by the ratio between force F and area A, so we can write
The force exerted on each piston is just equal to the weight of the corresponding mass: , where m is the mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. So the equation becomes
Now we can rewrite the mass as the product of volume, V, times density, d:
We also know that
So we can further re-arrange the equation (and simplify g as well):
We are also told that block B has bigger volume than block A: . However, this information is not enough to allow us to say if the fraction on the right is greater than 1 or smaller than 1: therefore, we cannot conclude anything about the densities of the two objects.
