A. The magnitude (in N) of the electric force that one particle exerts on the other is 8.60×10⁻⁸ N

B. The force is repulsive

<h3>A. How to determine the magnitude of the electric force</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Charge 1 (q₁) = 7.03 nC = 7.03×10¯⁹ C
  • Charge 2 (q₂) = 4.02 nC = 4.02×10¯⁹ C
  • Electric constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²
  • Distance apart (r) = 1.72 m
  • Force (F) =?

The magnitude of the electric force can be obtained by using the Coulomb's law equation as shown below:

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

F = (9×10⁹ × 7.03×10¯⁹ × 4.02×10¯⁹) / (1.72)²

F = 8.60×10⁻⁸ N

<h3>B. How to determine whether the force is attractive or repulsive</h3>

From the question given, we were told that:

  • Charge 1 (q₁) = 7.03 nC
  • Charge 2 (q₂) = 4.02 nC

Since both charge are positive, then the force attraction between them is repulsive as like charges repels and unlike charges attracts

The magnitude of the electric force that one particle exerts on the other is 8.59 x 10^{-8} N and the force is attractive.

<h3>How is Coulomb's Law Stated ?</h3>

Coulomb law states that the attractive or repulsive force between two point charges is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to square of the distance between them. That is,

F = KQq / r²

Given that two charged particles are a distance of 1.72 m from each other. One of the particles has a charge of 7.03 nC, and the other has a charge of 4.02 nC.

Where

  • K = constant of proportionality = 9 x 10^{9}  Nm²/c²
  • Q = 7.03 x 10^{-9} C
  • q = 4.02 x 10^{-9} C
  • r = 1.72 m

(A) The magnitude of the electric force that one particle exerts on the other will be

F = (9 x 10^{9} x 7.03 x 10^{-9} x 4.02 x 10^{-9}) / 1.72²

F = 2.54 x 10^{-7} / 2.96

F = 8.59 x 10^{-8} N

(B) Since our answer is positive, the force is therefore attractive.

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric force that one particle exerts on the other is 8.59 x 10^{-8} N and the force is attractive.

"On a movie set, an alien spacecraft is to be lifted to a height of 32.0 m for use in a scene. The 260.0-kg spacecraft is attach
Lisa [10]

Answer:

<em>The time interval required to lift the spacecraft to this specified height is 123.94 seconds</em>

Explanation:

Height through which the spacecraft is to be lifted = 32.0 m

Mass of the spacecraft = 260.0 kg

Four crew member each pull with a power of 135 W

18.0% of the mechanical energy is lost to friction.

work done in this situation is proportional to the mechanical energy used to move the spacecraft up

work done = (weight of spacecraft) x (the height through which it is lifted)

but the weight of spacecraft = mg

where m is the mass,

and g is acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/s

weight of spacecraft = 260 x 9.81 = 2550.6 N

work done on the space craft = weight x height

==> work = 2550.6 x 32 = 81619.2 J

this is equal to the mechanical energy delivered to the system

18.0% of this mechanical energy delivered to the pulley is lost to friction.

this means that

0.18 x 81619.2  = <em>14691.456 J  </em> is lost to friction.

Total useful mechanical energy =  81619.2 J - 14691.456 J = 66927.74<em> J</em>

Total power delivered by the crew to do this work = 135 x 4 = 540 W

But we know tat power is the rate at which work is done i.e

P = \frac{w}{t}

where p is the power

where w is the useful work done

t is the time taken to do this work

imputing values, we'll have

540 = 66927.74/t

t = 66927.74/540

time taken t = <em>123.94 seconds</em>

Suppose a large housefly 3.0 m away from you makes sound with an intensity level of 40.0 dB. What would be the sound intensity l
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the intensity of the noise be represented by I

Given that

40dB = 10 log 10 ⁡ ( I /I•) ........ 1

I• is the lowest or threshold intensity of sound made.

I represents the intensity of the sound/ noise

The intensity of noise of 1000flies will be

β = 10 log 10 ⁡(1000I/I•)

Open up the bracket

β = 10 log 10(1000)+ 10 log 10(I/I•)

10 log 10(10^3)+10 log 10(I/I•)

3×10(10 log 10) +10 log 10(I/I•)

Recall, 10 log 10 = 1

30×1 + 10 log 10(I/I•).........2

Put equation 1 into 2

β =30+40

= 70db

What are the factors that affect ocean density?<br><br> Please help!!
Paul [167]

The density of seawater plays a vital role in causing ocean currents and circulating heat because of the fact that dense water sinks below less dense. long story short, seawater is the problem because its denser than pure water.

Describe a sea-level transgression
Eduardwww [97]
<span>Some geographic areas endure cycles between these two processes called transgressive-regressive sequences. The rocks of western Pennsylvania are one example. Sandy beaches often leave observable records of transgression by covering marsh sediments that were once behind it as it moves inland. The original sediments are then covered by even deeper water sediments, which geologists can trace and record. It is generally believed that transgression will increase in accordance with rising sea levels worldwide</span>
