Answer:

0.055 N

Explanation:

From coulomb's law,

F α 1/r²

F = k/r²

F₁r₁² = F₂r₂²......................... Equation 1

Where F₁ = Initial force, r₁ = initial distance, F₂ = Final force, r₂ = Final distance.

making F₂ the subject of the equation

F₂ = F₁r₁²/r₂²..................... Equation 2

Given: F₁ = 5.50 N.

Let: r₁ = x m, then r₂= 10x m

Substitute into equation 2

F₂ = 5.5(x²)/(10x)²

F₂ = 5.5x²/100x²

F₂ = 5.5/100

F₂ = 0.055 N.

Hence the force becomes 0.055 N

Which car is harder to stop and why?
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The momentum of bath cars is 40000 Ns which make the difficulty to stop each car in aspect of fprce is the same.

Explanation:

Momentum (P) =mass(m) × velocity (v)

For car A,

                    P = m × v = 1000 × 40 = 40000 Ns

For car B,

                    P = m × v = 4000 × 10 = 40000 Ns

Force (F) = Momentum change(ΔΡ)/ time taken(t)

            F = ΔΡ/t

When stopping the car the momentum changes from 40000 Ns to 0

So momentum change in both cars is the same. So to stop the two cars in a  given time (t) you need the same force, which means you will feel same difficulty.
