What do electric forces between charges depend on

Physics

Answer:

On the magnitude of the charges, on their separation and on the sign of the charges

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric force between two charges is given by

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the magnitudes of the two charges

r is the separation between the charges

From the formula, we see that the magnitude of the force depends on the following factors:

- magnitude of the two charges

- separation between the charges

Moreover, the direction of the force depends on the sign of the two charges. In fact:

- if the two charges have same sign, the force is repulsive

- if the two charges have opposite signs, the force is attractive

si se deja caer un carrito desde el punto mas alto de ua psta de coches cuya altura es de 1.4m cual es la velocidad maxima que p

forsale [732]

Answer:

v = 5.24[m/s]

Explanation:

Este problema se puede resolver por medio del principio de la conservación de la energía, donde la energía potencial es igual a la energía cinética. Es decir a medida que el carrito desciende su energía potencial disminuye, pero su energía cinética aumenta.

$E_{kin}=E_{pot}$

Donde:

$E_{kin}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\\\E_{pot}=m*g*h$

Ahora reemplazando:

$\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2}=m*g*h\\\\0.5*v^{2}=9.81*1.4\\v=\sqrt{\frac{9.81*1.4}{0.5} } \\\\v=5.24[m/s]$

Write down the effect of humidity and temperature on the speed of sound.

finlep [7]

Answer:

The speed of sound is affected by temperature and humidity. Because it is less dense, sound passes through hot air faster than it passes through cold air. ... The attenuation of sound in air is affected by the relative humidity. Dry air absorbs far more acoustical energy than does moist air.

How are the energy conversions of machines similar to the energy conversions in your body

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

When we eat food, our body gets chemical energy from it. Now, this chemical energy from the food is changed into some different energy forms that is useful to it. They include:

-Chemical to mechanical energy to aid in movement of muscles

- chemical to thermal energy to aid in regulating the body temperature.

- chemical to electrical energy to aid the brain in thinking.

Thus is similar to how a machine converts energy because machines also generate energy after being powered and convert to other forms of energy. For example, an alarm clock converts electrical energy to sound energy, hair dryer converts electrical energy to thermal/heat energy.

The throwing back by a wall or barrier of a sound wave without absorbing<br> it. *<br> 1 point

Semenov [28]

Answer:Reflection

Explanation:

The throwing back of a sound wave without absorbing it is called reflection

In acoustic reflection of sound is termed as echo i.e. sound arrived at the listener after a particular delay depending upon the position of barrier to the observer.

The reflection of sound is used in many devices like megaphone, trumpets, etc. It is also used in auditorium such that the ceiling of the auditorium is curved for multiple reflections of sound so that sound can be reached at every corner of the auditorium.
