Answer:
sound Requires a medium in order to travel.
They are quantities with magnitude and direction like velocity, we'd be doomed without them to be honest , just knowing how fast something is going isn't enough, you want to know where it is going
Answer:
636.4 J
Explanation:
The potential energy between one of the charges at the corner of the square and the fifth identical charge is U = kq²/r where q = charge = +50 × 10⁻⁶ C and r = distance from center of square. = √2 m (since the midpoint of the sides = 1 m, so the distance from the charge at the corner to the center is thus √(1² + 1²) = √2)
Since we have four charges, the additional potential energy to move the charge to the centre of the square is U' = 4U = 4kq²/r
U' = 4kq²/r
= 4 × 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² (+50 × 10⁻⁶ C)²/√2 m
= 900 Nm²/√2 m
= 636.4 J
