Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

$U_{a} = 5.4 \times 10^{-8} J$

$W_{/text{a to b}} = -1.9 \times 10^{-8} J$

Electric potential energy ( $U_{b}$ ) = ?

Formula to calculate electric potential energy is as follows.

$U_{b} = U_{a} - W_{/text{a to b}}$

= $5.4 \times 10^{-8} J - (-1.9 \times 10^{-8} J)$

= $7.3 \times 10^{-8} J$

Thus, we can conclude that the electric potential energy of the pair of charges when the second charge is at point b is $7.3 \times 10^{-8} J$ .

Which sediment size would allow water to flow through at the fastest rate?

xeze [42]

The sediment size that would allow water to flow through at the fastest rate are pebbles. Sediment is a naturally occurring material that is broken down by processes of weathering and erosion, and is consequently transported by the action of wind, or ice, and or by the force of gravity acting on the particles. Pebble is a clast of rock with a particle size of 2 to 64 millimeters based on the scale of sedimentology.
