Two small identical metal spheres, A and B, on insulated stands, are each given a charge of +2.0 x 10-5 coulomb. The distance be

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

a) 90 N

Explanation:

Coulomb's law: states that the electric force of attraction or repulsion between two charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

It is represented mathematically as

F = 1/4πε₀(q₁q₂)/d²......................... Equation 1

Where F = Electrostatic force, q₁ = charge on the first metal sphere, q₂ = charge on the second metal sphere, d = distance between the spheres, 1/4πε₀ = proportionality constant.

Given: q₁ = +2.0×10⁻⁵ C, q₂ = 2.0×10⁻⁵, d = 2.0×10⁻¹ m

Constant : 1/4πε₀ = 9×10⁹Nm²/C²

Substituting these values into equation 1,

F = (9×10⁹×2.0×10⁻⁵×2.0×10⁻⁵)/(2.0×10⁻¹)²

F = (9×4×10⁻¹)/4×10⁻²

F = 90 N

Therefore the electrostatic force is = 90 N

The right option is a) 90 N

A plane traveled south for 2.5 hrs at a velocity of 1200km/hr. What distance did it travel?

Oxana [17]

From the formula, V=displacement/time
displacement/distance =velocity*time
distance=1200*2.5
distance=3*10³km

What is the wavelength of a photon whose energy is twice that of a photon with a 600 nm wavelength?

bearhunter [10]

Planck's equation states that
E = hf
where
E = the energy,
h = Planck's constant
f = the frequency

Because
c = fλ
where
c = velocity of light,
λ = wavelength
therefore
E = h(c/λ)

Photon #1:
The wavelength is λ₁ = 60 nm.
The energy is
E₁ = (hc)/λ₁

Photon #2:
The energy is twice that of photon #1, therefore its energy is
E₂ = 2E₁ = (hc)/λ₂.

Therefore
$\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}}= \frac{(hc)/\lambda_{2}}{(hc)/60 \, nm} =2\\ \frac{60}{\lambda_{2}} =2 \\ \lambda_{2} = \frac{60}{2} =30 \, nm$

Answer: 30 nm

melamori03 [73]

The mistake here is that the total energy of the system does not change - generally, the total amount of energy in a system never changes unless the energy enters or leaves the system somehow (for example, if you see the Earth alone as a system, then energy from the sun enters the system and some energy is lost to space in the form of heat).
