The Coulomb's law equation is F = Kq₁q₂/r².

<h3>What is Coulomb's law?</h3>

This is the law that relates the product of two charges to the square of distance between the two charges.

Coulomb's law states that the force of attraction or repulsion is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the charges.

<h3>Coulombs' law equation</h3>

The equation of Coulomb's law is given as;

F = Kq₁q₂/r²

where;

K is Coulomb's constant, Nm²/C²
q₁ is the first charge, C
q₂ is the second charge, C)
r is the distance between the charges, m

Thus, the Coulomb's law equation is F = Kq₁q₂/r².

How does the balloon react to the cloth item?

almond37 [142]

Answer: When rubbing a balloon with a wool cloth, it puts negative charges on the balloon. Negative charges attract to positive charges. If a balloon is not rubbed with the wool cloth, it has an equal amount of negative to positive charges, so it will attract to a rubbed balloon.

An electron moves through a uniform electric field vector E = (2.80î + 5.20ĵ) V/m and a uniform magnetic field vector B = 0.400k

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1.758820×10^11(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question, the parameters given are; E=(2.80i+ 5.20j) v/m, a uniform magnetic field,B= 0.400K T, acceleration, a= ??? and velocity vector, v= 11.0i metre per seconds (m/s)...

We can solve this problem using the formula below;

Ma= q[E+V × B] ---------------(1).

Note: q is negative, m= mass of electron.

Making acceleration,a the subject of the formula and substituting the parameters into equation (1);

a= -e/m × (2.5i + 5.2j +11.0i × 0.400K)

a= -e/m × (2.5i+5.2j-4.4j)

a= e/m × (-2.5i - 0.8j)

e/m= 1.758820×10^11 c/kg

Therefore, slotting in the value of charge to mass(e/m) ratio;

a= 1.7588×10^11×(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2

How do the current and coltage readings compare to before the wires were switched. Explain how to interpret them physically?

Blababa [14]

The potential difference between two locations in an electric circuit is measured using a voltmeter.
If the electricity passes through the voltmeter it shows deflection.

<h3>What is the purpose of a voltmeter?</h3>

A voltage meter, usually referred to as a voltmeter, is a device that measures the voltage, or potential difference, between two points in an electrical or electronic circuit.
volts is the unit of voltmeter(volts, millivolts, kilovolts)

<h3>What is the explanation for the link between current and voltage?</h3>

Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it, provided all physical conditions and temperatures remain constant.

<h3>What is ohm's law in circuit?</h3>

V = IR, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance, is known as Ohm's Law.
If you know the voltage of the battery in the circuit and how much resistance is in the circuit, you may use Ohm's Law to identify properties of a circuit, such as how much current is flowing through it.

A motorist enters a freeway at 45 km/h and accelerates uniformly to 99 km/h. From the odometer in the car, the motorist knows th

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

a) 19440 km/h²

b) 10 sec

Explanation:

v₀ = initial velocity of the car = 45 km/h

v = final velocity achieved by the car = 99 km/h

d = distance traveled by the car while accelerating = 0.2 km

a = acceleration of the car

Using the kinematics equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a d

99² = 45² + 2 a (0.2)

a = 19440 km/h²

t = time required to reach the final velocity

Using the kinematics equation

v = v₀ + a t

99 = 45 + (19440) t

t = 0.00278 h

t = 0.00278 x 3600 sec

t = 10 sec

A 4.0 m length of gold wire is connected to a 1.5 V battery, and a current of 4.0 mA flows through it. What is the diameter of t

sladkih [1.3K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of gold wire, l = 4 m

Voltage of battery, V = 1.5 V

Current, I = 4 mA

The resistivity of gold, $\rho=2.44\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

Resistance in terms of resistivity is given by :

$R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

Also, V = IR

So,

$\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

A is area of wire,

$\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi r^2}$ , r is radius, r = d/2 (diameter=d)

$\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi (d/2)^2}\\\\\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{4\rho l}{\pi d^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\rho l I}{V\pi}} \\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\times 2.44\times 10^{-8}\times 4\times 4\times 10^{-3}}{1.5\times \pi}} \\\\d=18.2\ \mu m$

Out of four option, near option is (C) 17 μm.
