Answer: 539.4 N
Explanation:
Let's begin by explaining that Coulomb's Law establishes the following:
"The electrostatic force 
between two point charges 
and 
is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance 
that separates them, and has the direction of the line that joins them"
What is written above is expressed mathematically as follows:
(1)
Where:
is the electrostatic force
is the Coulomb's constant
and are the electric charges
is the separation distance between the charges
Then:
(2)
Isolating and :
(3)
Now, if we keep the same charges but we decrease the distance to 
, (1) is rewritten as:
(4)
Then, the new electrostatic force will be:
(5) As we can see, the electrostatic force is increased when we decrease the distance between the charges.
Answer:
0.66c
Explanation:
Use length contraction equation:
L = L₀ √(1 − (v²/c²))
where L is the contracted length,
L₀ is the length at 0 velocity,
v is the velocity,
and c is the speed of light.
900 = 1200 √(1 − (v²/c²))
3/4 = √(1 − (v²/c²))
9/16 = 1 − (v²/c²)
v²/c² = 7/16
v = ¼√7 c
v ≈ 0.66 c
Answer:
Initial Velocity is 4 m/s
Explanation:
What is acceleration?
It is the change in velocity with respect to time, or the rate of change of velocity.
We can write this as:
Where
a is the acceleration
v is velocity
t is time
is "change in"
For this problem , we are given
a = 1.2
t = 10
Putting into formula, we get:
So, the change in velocity is 12 m/s
The change in velocity can also be written as:
It is given Final Velocity = 16, so we put it into formula and find Initial Velocity. Shown Below:
hence,
Initial Velocity is 4 m/s
