I Need help please with this question..

A 19 nC charge is moved in a uniform electric field. The electric field does 5.3 μJ of work as the charge moves from point A to

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The potential difference between points A and B is 278.95 volts.

The potential difference between points B and C is -642.10 volts.

The potential difference between points A and C is -363.15 volts.

Explanation:

Given :

Charge of the particle, q = 19 nC = 19 x 10⁻⁹ C

Work is done to move a charge from point A to B, W₁ = 5.3 μJ

Work done to move a charge from point B to C, W₂ = -12.2 μJ

Let V₁ be the potential difference between point A and B, V₂ be the potential difference between point B and C and V₃ be the potential difference between point A and C.

The relation between work done and potential difference is:

W = qV

V = W/q ....(1)

Using equation (1), the potential difference between points A and B is:

$V_{1}=\frac{W_{1} }{q}$

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

$V_{1} =\frac{5.3\times10^{-6} }{19\times10^{-9} }$

V₁ = 278.95 V

Using equation (1), the potential difference between points B and C is:

$V_{2}=\frac{W_{2} }{q}$

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

$V_{2} =\frac{-12.2\times10^{-6} }{19\times10^{-9} }$

V₂ = -642.10 V

The potential difference between points A and C is:

V₃ = V₁ + V₂

V₃ = 278.95 - 642.10

V₃ = -363.15 V

A 2.0-kg ball rolls to the right at 3.0 m/s. A 4.0-kg ball rolls to the left at 2.0 m/s . What is the momentum of the system aft

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Final momentum after a head on collision is -2kgm/s

Explanation:

One ball moves to the right and the other moves opposite and momentum is a vector quantity so that considering the direction

Initial momenta are P₁=2x3=6kgm/s P₂=4x(-2)=-8kgm/s

Final momentum is the vector sum of P(final)= 6-8= -2 kgm/s

A head-on, elastic collision between two particles with equal initial speed v leaves the more massive particle (mass m1) at rest

ZanzabumX [31]

<span>1/3 The key thing to remember about an elastic collision is that it preserves both momentum and kinetic energy. For this problem I will assume the more massive particle has a mass of 1 and that the initial velocities are 1 and -1. The ratio of the masses will be represented by the less massive particle and will have the value "r" The equation for kinetic energy is E = 1/2MV^2. So the energy for the system prior to collision is 0.5r(-1)^2 + 0.5(1)^2 = 0.5r + 0.5 The energy after the collision is 0.5rv^2 Setting the two equations equal to each other 0.5r + 0.5 = 0.5rv^2 r + 1 = rv^2 (r + 1)/r = v^2 sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v The momentum prior to collision is -1r + 1 Momentum after collision is rv Setting the equations equal to each other rv = -1r + 1 rv +1r = 1 r(v+1) = 1 Now we have 2 equations with 2 unknowns. sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v r(v+1) = 1 Substitute the value v in the 2nd equation with sqrt((r+1)/r) and solve for r. r(sqrt((r + 1)/r)+1) = 1 r*sqrt((r + 1)/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) = 1 - r r^2*(1+1/r) = 1 - 2r + r^2 r^2 + r = 1 - 2r + r^2 r = 1 - 2r 3r = 1 r = 1/3 So the less massive particle is 1/3 the mass of the more massive particle.</span>
