The charge present determines a force to be attractive or repulsive.

The charges acquired by two bodies determines the Force as Attractive Or Repulsive.

Electric Force applied due to Electrical charges is same in magnitude but opposite in direction. This corresponds this phenomenon equivalent to the Newton's Third Law.

Examples of the experiments and observations:

  • On combing hair through a comb and then keeping it close to small pieces of paper shows attraction of paper pieces towards the comb.

This occurs due to the Electric charges present in the comb that induces charge in paper pieces leading to their attraction.

  • In both Gravitational Force and Coulomb force, the force remains inversely proportional to the square of the distance following the Inverse Square Law being the Central Force system. This only differs by the fact that in Gravitational Force, masses are used and in Coulomb force, charges are used.

The more the distance between the charges, the less is the Electric Force.

The lesser the distance between the charges, the more is the Electric Force.

If both the objects are charged the same i.e. either positive or negative then the Force is Repulsive and if the charges are Oppositely charged then the force is attractive.

Hence, the charge present determines a force to be attractive or repulsive.

How fast (in rpm) must a centrifuge rotate if a particle 7.3 cm from the axis of rotation is to experience an acceleration of 1.
guajiro [1.7K]

The formula we use here is:

radial acceleration = ω^2 * R <span>

110,000 * 9.81 m/s^2 = ω^2 * 0.073 m 
<span>ω^2 = 110,000 * 9.81 / 0.073
ω = 3844.76 rad/s </span></span>

<span>and since: ω = 2pi*f  --> f = ω/(2pi)</span><span>
f = 3844.76 / (2pi) = 611.91 rps = 611.91 * 60 rpm 
<span>= 36,714.77 rpm </span></span>

Describe the difference between the velocity graph made walking at a steady rate and the velocity graph made at an increasing ra
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The difference between the velocity graph made walking at a steady rate means that its the same value in time, that means there's no slope on the graph, so its acceleration is 0

On the other hand, if the velocity is increasing with time, the slope of the graph becomes positive, which means that the acceleration of the particle is positive.
