Answer:

A.

q = 2 \times 10^{-5} C

B. may be attractive or repulsive

Explanation:

Let the charge on each coin is q. The separation between the coins is d.

According to the Coulomb's law, the force between the two coins is given by

F = K \frac{q \times q}{d^{2}}

A.

According to the question, F = 2 N, d = 1.35 m

So,

2 = 9 \times 10^{9} \frac{q \times q}{1.35^{2}}

By solving,

q = 2 \times 10^{-5} C

B.

The nature of force can be determined by the nature of charges. If the charge on both the coins is same in nature, then the force is repulsive and if the charge on both the coins be of opposite nature, then the force is attractive in nature.

A) To calculate the charge of each coin, we must apply the expression of the Coulomb's Law:
 
 F=K(q1xq2)/r²
 
 F: The magnitud of the force between the charges. (F=2.0 N).
 K: Constant of proporcionality of the Coulomb's Law (K=9x10^9 Nxm²/C²).
 q1 and q2: Electrical charges.
 r: The distance between the charges (r=1.35 m).
 
 We have the values of F, K and r, so we can calculate q1xq2, because both<span> coins have  identical charges:
</span> 
 q1xq2=(r²xF)/K
 q1xq2=(1.35 m)²(2.0 N)/9x10^9 Nxm²/C²
 q1xq2=3x10^-10 C
 q1=q2=(<span>3x10^-10 C)/2
 
 </span>Then, the charge of each coin, is:
<span> 
 q1=1.5x</span><span>10^-10 C 
 
 </span>q2=1.5x10^-10 C

B) <span>Would the force be classified as a force of attraction or repulsion?
</span> 
 It is a force of repulsion, because both coins have identical charges and both are postive. In others words, when two bodies have identical charges (positive charges or negative charges), the force is of repulsion.

Which of the following is true regarding the properties of light?
Ivanshal [37]

Light having a dual nature and acting like both a wave and a particle is the correct statement in this scenario.

<h3>What is Light?</h3>

This refers to the electromagnetic radiation found in the electromagnetic spectrum that is perceived by the human eye and has a dual nature. It doesn't require a medium for its propagation unlike sound.

The dual nature of light is as a result of it behaving like a photon which is why it travels in straight lines.

It also behave like a wave because it undergoes processes such as reflection, refraction etc which are common to waves.

Which law is associated with inertia
N76 [4]

Answer:

The focus of Lesson 1 is Newton's first law of motion - sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

In still​ water, a boat averages 18 18 miles per hour. it takes the same amount of time to travel 16 miles 16 miles ​downstream,
Vladimir79 [104]
<span>The current is 6 miles per hour.
   Let's create a few equations:
 Traveling with the current:
 (18 + c)*t = 16

   Traveling against the current:
 (18 - c)*t = 8

   Let's multiply the 2nd equation by 2
 (18 - c)*t*2 = 16

   Now subtract the 1st equation from the equation we just doubled.
 (18 - c)*t*2 = 16
 (18 + c)*t = 16

   (18 - c)*t*2 - (18 + c)*t = 0
 Divide both sides by t
 (18 - c)*2 - (18 + c) = 0

   Now solve for c
 (18 - c)*2 - (18 + c) = 0
 36 - 2c - 18 - c = 0
 36 - 2c - 18 - c = 0
 18 - 3c = 0
 18 = 3c
  6 = c

   So the current is 6 mph.
   Let's verify that.
 (18 + 6)*t = 16
 24*t = 16
 t = 16/24 = 2/3

   (18 - 6)*t = 8
 12*t = 8
 t = 8/12 = 2/3

   And it's verified.</span>
