Define electric potential energy

Physics

Electric potential energy, or Electrostatic potential energy, is a potential energy (measured in joules) that results from conservative Coulomb forces and is associated with the configuration of a particular set of point charges within a defined system. An object may have electric potential energy by virtue of two key elements: its own electric charge and its relative position to other electrically charged objects.

Is pine mountain ga a destructive or constructive force?
pochemuha
<span>A mountain is a type of constructive force. This is because the mountains are formed (or "constructed") through the convergence of land plates. When the two (or more) plates come together, they cause the land at the fault line to shift upward, leading to the formation of mountains.</span>

In a candy factory, the nutty chocolate bars contain 20.0 % pecans by mass. If 4.0 kg of pecans were used for candy last Tuesday
ladessa [460]

Answer:

44.09 pounds

Explanation:

We got that 20 % of the mass of a nutty chocolate bar its pecans, if 4.0 kg of pecans were used, we need to find the X in the equation

0.2 * X = 4.0 \ kg

where X its the total mass of nutty chocolate bars produced. So, we can just divide by 0.2 on both sides, and we find:

X = 4.0 kg / 0.2

X = 20.0 \ kg

Of course, we need the total mass produced in pounds, and not in kilograms.  Looking at an conversion table, we can find that 1 kg its 2.20462 pounds, multiplying the value for total mass produced by the conversion factor we get:

X = 20.0 \ kg * 2.20462 \ \frac{pounds}{kg}

X = 44.0924 \ pounds

Now, we just need to round off to two significant figures. This is:

X = 44.09 \ pounds,

the total mass of nutty chocolate bars  made last Tuesday to two significant figures.

Why are we mentley unstable to time travle
leva [86]

Answer:

Mental time travel has been studied by psychologists, cognitive neuroscientists, philosophers and in a variety of other academic disciplines. Major areas of interest include the nature of the relationship between memory and foresight, the evolution of the ability (including whether it is uniquely human or shared with other animals), its development in young children, its underlying brain mechanisms, as well as its potential links to consciousness, the self, and free will.
