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.

You calculate that the maximum static friction is 420N. If you apply 500N of force, will the couch slide?
Valentin [98]
Assuming that the entirety of the force is opposite the static friction, then the couch should begin sliding as the applied force overcomes the couch's static friction with what it's making contact with.

Among the largest passenger ships currently in use, the Norway has been in service the longest. The Norway is more than 300 m lo
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

6.33\times 10^8\ kg\cdot m/s

Explanation:

Mass of the ship (m) = 6.9 × 10⁷ kg

Speed of the ship (v) = 33 km/h

First, let us convert the speed from km/h to m/s using the conversion factor.

We know that, 1 km/h = 5/18 m/s

So, 33 km/h = 33\times \frac{5}{18}=9.17\ m/s

Now, we know, the momentum of an object only depends on its mass and speed. Momentum is independent of the length of the object.

So, here, length of the ship doesn't play any role in the determination of the momentum.

Magnitude of momentum of the ship = Mass × Speed

                                                             = (6.9\times 10^7\ kg)(9.17\ m/s)

                                                             = 6.33\times 10^8\ kg\cdot m/s

Therefore, the magnitude of ship's momentum is 6.33\times 10^8\ kg\cdot m/s.

A microwave oven operates with sinusoidal microwaves at a frequency of 2400 MHz. The height of the oven cavity is 25 cm and the
Degger [83]

Answer:

F = 2 × 10⁻³ N

Explanation:

Given:

frequency, f = 2400 MHz

Height, h = 25cm = 0.25 m

Area of the base, A = 30 cm x 30 cm = 900 cm² = 0.09 m²

Energy of the  microwave, E = 0.50 mJ = 0.5 x 10⁻³ J

Now, the time taken by the wave from top to the base, t = h/c

here, c is the speed of the light

thus,

t = 0.25/(3 x 10⁸) = 8.33 x 10⁻¹⁰ s

The radiation pressure P_r = Intensity/c

now, the intensity is given as:

I = Power/ area

also,

Power = Energy/ time = 0.5 x 10⁻³ J/8.33 x 10⁻¹⁰ s = 600000 W

thus,

I = 600000 W/ 0.09 m² = 6666666.6 W/m²

substituting the value in the formula for pressure due to radiation, we have

P_r = 6666666.6 W/m²/(3 x 10⁸)

also

pressure = Force/ area

thus,

Force/ area = 6666666.6 W/m²/(3 x 10⁸)

or

Force (F) = (6666666.6 W/m² × 0.09 m²)/(3 x 10⁸)

or

F = 2 × 10⁻³ N

1. What is the average velocity of a car that moved 40 km East and 80 km West in 2 hours?
irina [24]

The average velocity is 20 km/h west

Explanation:

The velocity of an object is given by:

velocity = \frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement

t is the time elapsed

The displacement of an object is a vector connecting the initial position and the final position of motion.

In this problem, the car moved

40 km East

80 km West

Therefore, the displacement is given by (taking West as positive direction)

d=80 km - 40 km = 40 km West

The time elapsed is

t = 2 h

Therefore, the average velocity is

v=\frac{40 km}{2h}=20 km/h in the West direction.

An FM radio consists of a series RLC circuit with a 6.57 pF (peco – 10-12) capacitor. If a person is dialed into a station broad
faust18 [17]

Answer:

3.6 x 10⁻⁷ H

Explanation:

C = capacitance of the capacitor = 6.57 x 10⁻¹² F

L = inductance of the inductor = ?

f = frequency of broadcasting system = 103.9 MHz = 103.9 x 10⁶ Hz

frequency is given as

f = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{LC}}

103.6\times 10^{6} = \frac{1}{2(3.14)\sqrt{(6.57\times 10^{-12})L}}

Inserting the values

L = 3.6 x 10⁻⁷ H
