1. Two balloons are charged with an identical quantity and type of charge: -6.25C. They are held apart at a separation distance

Degger [83]

Answer:

The electric force between them is 878.9 N

Given:

Identical charge C

Separation between two charges m

For finding the electrical force,

According to the coulomb's law

Here, force between two balloons are repulsive because both charges are same.

Where N Therefore, the electric force between them is 878.

Calculate the potential energy of a 1200 kg boulder on a cliff 45 m above the ground.

Softa [21]

Explanation:

Given mass of the object is 1200kg and it's placed at a height of 45m above the ground. As we know that potential energy is ,

$\longrightarrow PE = mgh$

where,

m is the mass of the body .
g is acceleration due to gravity.
h is the height above the ground .

Substituting the respective values ,

$\longrightarrow P.E. = 1200kg * 10m/s^2* 45m$

Multiply ,

$\longrightarrow P.E. = 540000J$

Hence the potential energy is 540000J .

I hope this helps.
