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.

A 53 g ice cube at −30◦C is dropped into a container of water at 0◦C. How much water freezes onto the ice? The specific heat of
vladimir2022 [97]

For A 53 g ice cube at −30◦C is dropped into a container of water at 0◦C, the amount of water that freezes onto the ice?  is mathematically given as

x = 9.93 g

<h3>What is the amount of water that freezes onto the ice?</h3>

Where

Energy received = energy given out

Generally, the amount of water is mathematically given as

(53)(0.5)(30) = (80)(x)

Therefore

x = (49)(0.5)(16)/(80)

x = 9.93 g

In conclusion, the mass of water

x = 9.93 g
