Given:

The force of attraction is F = 48.1 N

The separation between the charges is

\begin{gathered} r=\text{ 60.9 cm} \\ =\text{ 60.9}\times10^{-2}\text{ m} \end{gathered}

Also, the magnitude of charge q1 = q2 = q.

To find the magnitude of charge.

Explanation:

The magnitude of charge can be calculated by the formula

\begin{gathered} F=\frac{k(2q)}{r^2} \\ q=\frac{Fr^2}{2k} \end{gathered}

Here, k is the Coulomb's constant whose value is

k\text{ = 9}\times10^9\text{ N m}^2\text{ /C}^2

On substituting the values, the magnitude of charge will be

\begin{gathered} q=\frac{48.1\times(60.9^\times10^{-2})^2}{2\times9\times10^{^9}} \\ =9.91\times10^{-10}\text{ C} \\ =9.91\times10^{-4}\text{ }\mu C \end{gathered}

Thus, the magnitude of each charge is 9.91 x 10^(-4) micro Coulombs.

DNA is coiled into chromosomes in a cell's
tia_tia [17]

Answer: Cell's nucleus

Explanation :

The full form of DNA is Deoxyribonucleic acid. The genetic information of a cell is organized in the DNA. It is inherited from parents by their children.

DNA is coiled into chromosomes in a cell's nucleus. It has a shape like a double helix. It is twisted in the form of spirals.

Hence, DNA is coiled into chromosomes in a cell's Nucleus.

Why is the current atomic model called the "electron could model"
vlada-n [284]
The diagram is showing a 3d model of an atom, with all of the electrons demonstrated in a rounded shape, which resembles a cloud, thus being called an electron cloud.
