a=v/t

a=38/10

a=-3.8 m/s^2

You put the negative in front of 3.8 because it decelerated.

Hope it helps and is correct :)

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The ratio of the resistances of second coil to the first coil is the ratio of square of radius of the first coil to the square of radius of second coil.

And

The ratio of the resistances of fourth coil to the third coil is the ratio of square of radius of the third coil to the square of radius of fourth coil.

Explanation:

The resistance of the coil is directly proportional to the length of the coil and inversely proportional to the area of coil and hence inversely proportional to the square of radius of the coil.

So, the ratio of the resistances of second coil to the first coil is the ratio of square of radius of the first coil to the square of radius of second coil.

And

The ratio of the resistances of fourth coil to the third coil is the ratio of square of radius of the third coil to the square of radius of fourth coil.

The force of attraction between a -130.0 C and +180.0 C charge is 8.00 N. What is the separation between these two charges in me

kondaur [170]

Answer with Explanation:

The force of attraction between 2 charges of magnitude $q_1,q_2$ separated by a distance 'r' is given by

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _o}\frac{q_1\times q_2}{r^2}=k\frac{q_1\times q_2}{r^2}$

where

$\epsilon _o$ is a constant known as permitivity of free space

$k=9\times 10^{9}Nm^2/C^2$

Applying the given values in the above relation we get

$8=9\times 10^{9}\times \frac{130\times 180}{r^{2}}\\\\r^{2}=\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 130\times 180}{8}\\\\r^{2}=26325\times 10^{9}\\\\\therefore r=\sqrt{26325\times 10^{9}}=5.131\times 10^{6}meters$
