If one of two interacting charges is doubled, the force between the charges will _____________.

malfutka [58]

If one of two interacting charges is doubled, the force between the charges will double.

Explanation:

The force between two charges is given by Coulomb's law

$F=\frac{k q1 q2}{r^{2}}$

K=constant= 9 x 10⁹ N m²/C²

q1= charge on first particle

q2= charge on second particle

r= distance between the two charges

Now if the first charge is doubled,

we get $F'=\frac{k (2q1) q2}{r^{2}}$

F'= 2 F

Thus the force gets doubled.

Use Kepler’s third law and the orbital motion of Earth to determine the mass of the Sun. The average distance between Earth and

dexar [7]

Kepler’s
third law formula: T^2=4pi^2*r^3/(GM)

We’re trying to find M, so:

M=4pi^2*r^3/(G*T^2)

M=4pi^2*(1.496
× 10^11 m)^3/((6.674× 10^-11N*m^2/kg^2)*(365.26days)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))

Let’s work
with the units:

(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))=

=(m^3*kg^2)/(N*m^2*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/(N*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/((kg*m/s^2)*days^2)

=(kg)/(days^2/s^2)

=(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

So:

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

Now we need to convert days to seconds in order to cancel
them:

1 day=24 hours=24*60minutes=24*60*60s=86400s

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/((86400s)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/(
86400^2*s^2)

M=1.48× 10^40kg/86400^2

M=1.98x10^30kg

The
closest answer is 1.99
× 10^30

(it may vary
a little with rounding – the difference is less than 1%)
