Two positive charges of same magnitude are separated by some distance if we bring a unit positive charge from one charge to anot

her electric potential ?
Physics
1 answer:
Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Increases.

Explanation:

The electric potential increases when the two positive charges of same magnitude bring close to one charge to another because there is repulsive force between them due to same charge and when the two opposite charges move away from each other, the potential energy decreases. When two opposite charges are brought closer together, electric potential energy decreases while on the other hand, when we move opposite charges apart from each other than the work done against the attractive force that leads to an increase in electric potential energy.

3. A force is exerted on a positively-charged particle that moves the particle in the direction opposite to that of an electric
NikAS [45]

Answer:

a) The work done on the particle has a positive  sign.

Explanation:

When a positive charge is placed in a electric field , a force is exerted by electric field along the direction of the electric field . But the external force is acting on it so that displacement is opposite to the field . That means the external force is acting opposite to electric force on the charged particle.

The displacement is along the external force applied so both force and displacement are positive . Hence work done is positive .

Work done by electric field is negative , because displacement and electric force are opposite.

Find the volume of a box measuring 2cm by 7 cm by 3cm
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

42cm

Explanation:

To find the volume of a box, you simply multiply the length, by the width, then by the heigh!

2cm x 7cm x 3cm = 42cm

I hope my answer helped you! :)

A ball is batted straight up into the air and reaches a maxium height 65.6 m (a) How long did it take to reach this height? (b)
kondaur [170]

Answer:

a) 3.65 seconds

b) 35.87 m/s

Explanation:

s = Displacement = 65.6 m

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

t = Time taken

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² (downward direction is taken as positive and upward is taken as negative)

b) Equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow 0^2-u^2=2\times -9.81\times 65.6\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 65.6}\\\Rightarrow u=35.87\ m/s

Initial pop up velocity is 35.87 m/s

a)

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-35.87}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=3.65\ s

It took 3.65 seconds to reach this height

What is the danger to spacecraft and astronauts from micrometeoroids?
Sloan [31]

Answer:

Suppose the micrometeoroid weighed 1 g = .001 kg

Suppose also the spacecraft were moving at 18,000 mph (1.5 hrs per rev)

Usually, the smaller particle would be moving but for simplicity suppose that it were stationary wrt the ground

v = 18000 miles / hr * 1500 m/mile / 3600 sec/hr = 7500 m/s

KE = 1/2 * .001 kg * (7500 m)^2 = 28,125 Joules

One can see that 28000 Joules could be damaging amount of energy
