Two points A=(+16) and B=(-4) At electric potential respectively find:

Physics
1 answer:
Damm [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a. Point A

b. 20 V

c. 100 J

Explanation:

a. Point A is at a higher potential because there is a positive sign in front of its magnitude. Since it is a positive integral value, and has a higher magnitude than point B which is at -4, point A is thus at a higher potential than point B.

b. The potential difference between the two points ΔV = A - B

= +16 V - (-4 V)

= +16 V + 4 V

= + 20 V

c. The work done, W in moving a charge Q across a potential difference ΔV is W = QΔV

So, since Q = 5 C and ΔV = + 20 V  

W = QΔV

= 5 C × (+ 20 V)

= 100 J

What use do we have for motion diagrams?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

A motion diagram represents the motion of an object by displaying its location at various equally spaced times on the same diagram. Motion diagrams are a pictorial description of an object's motion. They show an object's position and velocity initially and present several spots in the center of the diagram.
