Answer:
a. The electric field lines are linear and perpendicular to the plates inside a parallel-plate capacitor, and always from positive plate to the negative plate. If a positive charge is released near the positive plate, then it will follow a linear path towards the negative plate under the influence of electrostatic force, F = Eq, where q is the charge of the particle. The electric field inside a parallel plate capacitor is constant and equal to
This can be calculated by Gauss' Law.
A positive charge always follow the electric field lines when released. Another approach is that the positive plate repels the positive charge and negative plate attracts the positive charge. Therefore, the positive charge follows a path towards the negative charge.
b. The particle moves from the higher potential to the lower potential. The direction of motion is the same as the direction of the force that moves the particle, so the work done on the particle by that force is positive.
Answer:
Part a)
Part b)
Explanation:
Part a)
Force on the object due to spring force is given as
here we know that
so we have
Part b)
Acceleration of the object is given as
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. For endothermic reactions, the reactants have less energy than the products. Which would mean that energy should be added to the reaction for it to proceed. Hope this answers the question.
Answer:
(4) A = 3 A, A₂ = 11 A
(5) 7 A
Explanation:
(4)
From the diagram,
A = 3+6+2
A = 11 A
V = A₂R
A₂ = V/R₂............ Equation 1
Given: V = 12 V, R₂ = 4 Ω
Substitute these values into equation 1
A₂ = 12/4
A₂ = 3 A
(5) Applying,
V = IR'
I = V/R'............ Equation 1
Where V = Voltage, I = cuurent, R' = total resistance.
But,
1/R' = (1/3)+(1/4)
1/R' = (3+4)/12
1/R' = 7/12
R' = 12/7 Ω
Given: V = 12 V
Substitute these values into equation 1
I = 12/(12/7)
I = 7 A
Therefore
A = 7 A
Answer:
c. The truck with greater speed
Explanation:
Energy can be defined as the ability (capacity) to do work. The two (2) main types of energy are;
a. Gravitational potential energy (GPE): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.
b. Kinetic energy (KE): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.
Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;
Where;
K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.
M represents mass measured in kilograms.
V represents speed or velocity measured in metres per seconds square.
From the above formula, we can deduce that the kinetic energy of an object is directly proportional to the square of the value of its velocity or speed.
Hence, the truck with greater speed would have a greater amount of kinetic energy.
