Force F acts between two charges, q1 and q2, separated by a distance d. If q1 is increased to twice its original value and the d

istance between the charges is also doubled, what is the new force acting between the charges in terms of F? F F F 2F

Okay, haven't done physics in years, let's see if I remember this.

So Coulomb's Law states that F = k \frac{Q_1Q_2}{d^2} so if we double the charge on Q_1 and double the distance to (2d) we plug these into the equation to find

<span>F_{new} = k \frac{2Q_1Q_2}{(2d)^2}=k \frac{2Q_1Q_2}{4d^2} = \frac{2}{4} \cdot k \frac{Q_1Q_2}{d^2} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot F_{old}</span>

So we see the new force is exactly 1/2 of the old force so your answer should be \frac{1}{2}F if I can remember my physics correctly.

A boy weighs 40 kilograms. He runs at a velocity of 4 meters per second north. Which is his momentum?
Bogdan [553]
The boy's momentum is 160 kg*m/s north.

The formula of momentum is p = mv, where p is momentum.
p = 40 kg * 4m/s north
p =160 kg*m/s north

What does the term “energy crisis” mean?
Zielflug [23.3K]
An energy crisis<span> is any significant (bottleneck; logistics; or price rise) in the supply of energy resources to an economy. In popular literature, it often refers to one of the energy sources used at a certain time and place, in particular those that supply national electricity grids or those used as fuel in vehicles.</span>

0. 85 kg of lead, specific heat 128 J/kgC, is heated from 50 C to 95 C. How much heat energy did the sample absorb?
Zanzabum
4896

0.85 x 45 x 128 = 4896

Change in energy = specific heat capacity x mass x change in temperature

Which is worse, failing or never trying?
guapka [62]
Personally I feel that never trying is worse because at least when you fail you know what you need to improve on and that way you at least get some closure. Where as when you never try it you would never know whether or not you were able to do it
