<span>Coulomb's law describes the magnitude of the electrostatic force between two electric charges. The Coulomb's law formula is:
  <span>F = Ke * q1 * q2 / r2</span>

Where:
  q1: Charge of object 1
  q2: Charge of object 2
  r: Distance between the two objects
  F: Force between the two objects. A positive force implies a repulsive interaction, while a negative force implies an attractive interaction
  Ke = Coulomb Constant, 8.9875517873681764 * 109 N.m2.C<span>-2
</span>
Coulomb's Law Examples:
What is the magnitude of the force between two protons which are 1.6E10-6 meters apart?

The charge of 1 proton is +1e (+1.602E-19 C).

F = 8.9875517873681764 * 109 * 1.602E-19 * 1.602E-19 / (1.6E-6 * 1.6 E-6) = 9 * 10-17 N


Source- http://www.endmemo.com/physics/coulomb.php




f = k (q^1)(q^2)/r^2

both sides by r^2 Multiply
fr^2/r^2 = kq^3/r^2

both sides by r^2 divide 
f = kq^3/r^2


Answer:
f = kq^3/r^2



Hope this helps!!!!

Answer:

distance in terms of force is given as

r = \sqrt{\frac{kq_1q_2}{f}}

Explanation:

here as we know that the force between two charges placed at distance "r" is given by Coulomb's law

It is given by the formula

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

now we have to rearrange it for finding the distance

so here we will multiply both sides by square of the distance

f \times r^2 = kq_1q_2

now we will divide both sides force "f"

r^2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{f}

now square root both sides

r = \sqrt{\frac{kq_1q_2}{f}}

If the magnitude of F1 is greater than the magnitude of F2, then the box is
Lady bird [3.3K]

Assuming that the vectors are acting along the same axis, we could just simply add or subtract the vectors. Since the F1 is greater than F2, there would be motion, there would be acceleration, and that the direction of motion is along the F1.

A charged particle moves in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field.Which of the following would increase the period of the
Bond [772]

Answer:

Increasing its charge

Increasing the field strength

Explanation:

For a charged particle moving in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field, the centripetal force is provided by the magnetic force, so we can write:

qvB = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

q is the charge

v is the velocity

B is the magnetic field

m is the mass

r is the radius of the orbit

The period of the motion is

T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}

Re-arranging for r

r=\frac{Tv}{2\pi}

And substituting into the previous equation

qvB = m \frac{Tv^3}{2\pi}

Solving for T,

T=\frac{2\pi q B}{m v^2}

So we see that the period is:

- proportional to the charge and the magnetic field

- inversely proportional to the mass and the square of the speed

So the following will increase the period of the particle's motion:

Increasing its charge

Increasing the field strength

A large body collides with a stationary small body from the rear end. How do the bodies behave if the collision is inelastic?.
alexdok [17]
If the collision is inelastic, there is every possibility that the large body will drag the small stationary body along with it in the direction of the collision. Some amount of heat, light and sound energy will also be produced due to the kinetic energy of the large body. I hope the answer helps you.
