How do you work out Potential Difference??? Please can you make it simple :) Thanks.

Physics
1 answer:
patriot [66]2 years ago

Answer:

Potential difference is the work done in moving a positive test charge from infinity to the point in question.

Voltage is an expression of PD.   (Joules / Coulomb)

Say that a capacitor has a PD of 5 Volts. The work in moving a positive test charge from the positive plate to the negative plate is -5 Joules/Coulomb or -5 volt. (At the positive plate the positive test charge (1 Coulomb) already has a PD of + 5 Volts.)

A bullet fired horizontally hits the ground in 0.5 sec. If it had been fired with a much higher speed in the same direction, and
stira [4]

Answer:

3. 0.5 sec.

Explanation:

A bullet fired horizontally follows a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A horizontal motion with constant speed

- A vertical motion with  constant acceleration, g = 9.8 m/s^2, towards the ground

The time taken for the bullet to reach the ground can be calculated just by considering the vertical motion:

y(t) = h + v_{0y} t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where y is the vertical position at time t, h is the initial height, and v_{0y} is the initial vertical velocity of the bullet.

Since the bullet is fired horizontally, v_{0y}=0. So the equation becomes

y(t) = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

And the time that the bullet takes to reach the ground can be found by requiring y=0 and solving for t:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

As we can see, in this equation there is no dependance on the initial speed of the bullet: therefore, if the bullet is fired still horizontally but with a different speed, it will still take the same time (0.5 s) to reach the ground.

*PLEASE HELP! FIRST CORRECT ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!*
scoray [572]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 advantage of genetic engineering:

It allows for a faster growth rate. Because with genetic engineering, plants and animals are allowed to be modified so their maturity would occur at a quicker pace.

1 disadvantag of genetic engineering:

The nutrition value of foods can be less. For example, in a research show that genetic enginnering make chicken increase the fat content by 220% but reduced the amount of protein.

1 advantage of cloning:

When cloning, the object would be able to create tissue and organs that doctor can use when needed during the surgery.

1 disadvantage of cloning:

If original organism has genetic deffects, it will be passed down through all the continuous generations

1 advantage of artificial selection (can be called as selective breeding):

It will provide improvements to plants and animals. For example, seedless fruits, increast the tast of food, etc.

1 disadvantage of artificial selection (can be called as selective breeding):

It may lead to a lack of variety in plant or animal species. As the breeding is selective so the variety in plant would be decrease. For example, people like seedless fruits than normal included-seed fruit so that would make the new fruit become more popular and may lead to decrease the diversity in fruits.

Hope this help you :3
