Answer: c)• 2/3

Explanation:

Lets say q1 and q2 are two charges with r distance far apart.

So electrostatic force

F = (k q1 q2) / r²

as k = Coulomb's constant

Now

q1' = 2q1

q2' = q2/3

Therefore the new electrostatic force

F' = (k q'1 q'2) / r²

F' = (k 2q1 q2) / 3r²

F' = 2/3 [(k q1 q2) / r²]

so F' = 2/3F

New electrostatic force  is 2/3F

<span>a. How much time elapses from start to stop
v = u + at
 20 = 0 + 2t1
 t1 = 10 sec
 
2nd phase:
v = u - at
0 = 20 - 1 x t2
t2 = 20 sec
 
total time = t1+t2 = 10 + 20 = 30 sec

b.</span><span>1st phase:
  s = ut + 1/2at^2
s1 = 0 + 1/2 x 2 x (10)^2
s1 = 100 m

</span><span>2nd phase:
By s = ut - 1/2at^2
s2 = 20 x (20) - 1/2 x 1 x (20)^2
s2 = 200 m
  total distance(s) = s1+s2 = 100 + 200 = 300 m

What is the amount of electric field passing through a surface called? A. Electric flux.B. Gauss’s law.C. Electricity.D. Charge
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Electric flux

Explanation:

The electric flux measures the amount of electric field passing through a surface. For any closed surface, the electric field passing through it (electric flux) is given by Guass law. The mathematical relation between electric flux and the enclosed charge is known as Gauss law for the electric field. Electric flux may also be visualised as the amount of electric lines of force passing through an area.

1) Subatomic particles called muons can be created in the upper atmosphere by collisions of cosmic rays (energetic particles com
Vsevolod [243]

Answer and explanation:

A.

Muon travelled straight down towards the earth. Therefore the tree moves up in the rest frame of muon (option a)

B.

In muon rest frame it travels Zero meters

C.

Distance, d = Velocity, v * Time, s

where, v = 0.9c = 0.9 \times 8 \times 10^8 , s = 2.2 \mu s

d = 0.9 \times 3 \times 10^8 \times 2.2 \times 10^{-6}\\\\d = 594m

D.

Distance from the top of the mountain to the tree is the same as the distance travelled by the tree in the muons rest frame

that is same as in part C which is 594m

E.

Using lorentz contraction

In the rest frame of someone standing on the mountain

the distance is given by

d' = \frac{d}{\gamma} = d\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2}}, where, \frac{1}{\gamma}= \sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2}}

d' = 594\sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.9c)^2}{c^2}}

d' = 594\sqrt{1 - 0.81}

d' = 594 \times 0.4359

d' = 258.92m

F.

in the rest frame of someone standing on the mountain,

muon moves straight down
