Each of two small non-conducting spheres is charged positively, the combined charge being 40 μC. When the two spheres are 50 cm

apart, each sphere is repelled from the other by a force of magnitude 2.0 N. Determine the magnitude of the smaller of the two charges.

Answer:

1.44 x 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

q_{1} = charge on one sphere

q_{2} = charge on other sphere

q = Total charge on the two spheres = 40 μC

q_{1}+ q_{2} = q

q_{1}+ q_{2} = 40 x 10⁻⁶

q_{1} = (40 x 10⁻⁶) - q_{2}                                   eq-1

r = distance between the two spheres = 50 cm = 0.50 m

F = magnitude of force between the two spheres = 2.0 N

Magnitude of force between the two spheres is given as

F = \frac{k q_{1} q_{2}}{r^{2}}

2.0 = \frac{(9\times 10^{9}) ((40\times 10^{-6}) - q_{2}) q_{2}}{0.50^{2}}

q_{2} = 1.44 x 10⁻⁶ C

Water is used to cool down automobile engines when they get hot. Why is water used as a coolant? A. Water is a good conductor. B
Mrac [35]

Water is usually used to cool down automobile engines when they get hot, yes. Therefore, that means water has a high heat capacity.

That makes the answer letter D you provided above.

D) Water has a high heat capacity.

Another example would be trying to put out a fire with a bucket of water. Usually, you can put out the fire debating on the size!

Driving along in your car, you take your foot off the gas, and your speedometer shows a reduction in speed. Describe an inertial
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

  v ’= v + v₀

a system can be another vehicle moving in the opposite direction.

Explanation:

In an inertial reference frame the speed of the vehicle is given by the Galileo transformational

          v ’= v - v₀

where v 'is the speed with respect to the mobile system, which moves with constant speed, v is the speed with respect to the fixed system and vo is the speed of the mobile system.

The vehicle's speedometer measures the harvest of a fixed system on earth, in this system v decreases, for a system where v 'increases it has to be a system in which the mobile system moves in the negative direction of the x axis, whereby the transformation ratio is

        v ’= v + v₀

Such a system can be another vehicle moving in the opposite direction.
