Answer:

Read Explanation:

Explanation:

If the forces are in opposite directions that means that one of the forces is negative. Therefore you would take the sum of both and if the sum is negative than it is in the direction of the negative force...

EX.

a= -5:   <-------

b= 6:  --------->

c=a+b

c=(-5)+(6)

c= 1 ---->

Suppose that an electron and a positron collide head-on. Both have kinetic energy of 1.64 MeV and rest energy of 0.511 MeV. They
trasher [3.6K]

The electron and positron collide and annihilate each other, converting their total energy (sum of kinetic and rest energy) into energy carried by two photons:

2(1.64MeV  + 0.511MeV) = 2E_{photon}

E_{photon} = 1.64MeV  + 0.511MeV

E_{photon} = 2.15MeV

If 10. joules of work must be done to move 2.0 coulombs of charge from point A to point B in an electric field, the potential di
masya89 [10]
The equation for work (W) done by an electric field is:

W = qΔV

where q is the magnitude of the charge and ΔV is the potential difference. The question gives you W and q, so plug n' play to find ΔV:

10 = 2ΔV
ΔV = 5

If a substance besides water is changed from a gas to a liquid and then to a solid, what happens to the particles?
NARA [144]
The correct answer is they get closer together

Going from gas into a liquid makes the molecules move closer together, which happens again when you turn it into a solid.

An organ pipe is open at both ends. It is producing sound
ozzi

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the wavelength of its third harmonic.

It describes that the wavelength is equivalent to

\lambda = \frac{2}{3}L

Here,

\lambda = Wavelength

The wavelength is in turn described as a function that depends on the change of the speed as a function of the frequency, that is to say

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

In this case the speed is equivalent to the speed of sound and the frequency was previously given, therefore

\lambda = \frac{343}{262}

\lambda = 1.3091m

Finally the length of the pipe would be

L= \frac{3}{2}(1.3091)

L = 1.963m
