Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y
Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below
V = kq/y
Where k = 1/4πε0
Where V = electric potential,
k = electric constant = 9×10^9,
y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space
q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c
From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.
We have that
V = k/y
We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).
This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.
This fact makes option 1 the correct answer
Answer:
Acceleration = 4 m/s²
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Force = 8 N
Mass = 2 kg
To find the acceleration of the block;
Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
Substituting into the formula, we have;
Acceleration = 4 m/s²

Question no. 1. Compare the planets Mars and Saturn. Describe how their common characteristics are similar:
Answer: Our solar system is located in the outer spiral arm of the milky way galaxy. our solar system has one sun and nine revolving planets and . namely
- Mercury
- Venus
- Earth
- Mars
- Jupiter
- Saturn
- Uranus
- Neptune
- Pluto (small planet usually refer as dwarf)
Each star has its on moon/moons and has its own characteristics i.e , planet must be a celestial body , must have orbit around sun, have enough mass for self gravity, big enough to have gravity that clear its path from other same size object close to its orbit around sun.
Mars is the fourth from the sun and sixth is the Saturn from the sun in our solar system.
<u>Common in Characteristics of Mars and Saturn:</u>
- Mars and Saturn both have celestial body.
- Mars and Saturn both have enough mass for the gravity to get rid of rigid body forces.
- Mars and Saturn both revolve around the sun in their own orbits.
- Mars is the second smallest in the solar system while Saturn is second largest in the solar system.
- Mars and Saturn both have their own moons. Mars has two while Saturn has 83 moons
- Mars and Neptune both do not support life.
Question no. 2. Compare the planets Earth and Neptune. Describe how are they different from each other
Answer:
Earth our home planet is the third from the sun and Neptune on the other hand is the eighth from the sun in the solar system.
<u>Common differences between Earth and Neptune</u>
- Earth is the terrestrial planet while Neptune (Ice giant) is the Jovian planet.
- Earth has no ring around it, Neptune has ring around it.
- Earth is closer to the sun and Neptune is far distant from the sun.
- Earth consists of rocks and metals on the other hand Neptune contain gases
- Earth is smaller than the Neptune in the solar system.
- Earth rotates slower and Neptune rotates faster.
