Answer: The correct option is A.

Explanation:

The electric potential energy is defined as the work done required in assembling the charges by bringing them close together.

The kinetic energy is due to the motion of the particle.

In the given problem, a proton is moving towards a stationary charged particle. There will an energy change that could occur as the particles get closer.

The moving charge gains electric potential energy and losses its kinetic energy until it stops.

At that point, Kinetic energy will be converted into electric potential energy if the stationary particle is positive.

V125BC [204]
It is important for physicians to be Respectful of patient use of alternative therapies

Alternative therapies usually have not gain a scientific approval from the scientific community, but there are some therapies that show positive results even though it is still has not proved by studies or researches. So it's important for physicians to be respectful if the patient choose to do it

Classify the following elements as alkine, alkine-earth, or transition metals based on their position on the periodic table
azamat

Explanation:

Iron                              transition metal

Potassium                   Alkaline metal

Strontium                    Alkaline earth metal

Platinum                      transition metal

The periodic table arranges elements based on their atomic numbers into periods and groups. Atomic number is the number of protons an atom contains.

On the periodic table:

 Group IA    is called Alkaline metal

Group IIA    is the Alkaline earth metals

 Group IIIA     Boron family elements

 Group VIIA    Halogens

 Group O     Noble gases or inert gases.

 Group IIIB to IIB   Transition elements.

Running a check of the given elements on the periodic table will confirm answer.

A driver is traveling eastward on a dirt road when she spots a pothole ahead. She slows her car from 14.0 m/s to 5.5 m/s in 6.0
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

- 1.42m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity of a body with respect to time.

Acceleration = change in velocity/time

Change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

Acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity/time

Since she slows her car from 14.0 to 5.5m/s in 6seconds,

Initial velocity = 14m/s

Final velocity = 5.5m/s

Time = 6seconds

Substituting in the given formula, we will have

Acceleration = 5.5 - 14/6

Acceleration = - 8.5/6

Acceleration = - 1.42m/s²

The negative acceleration shows that the car decelerates.
