Answer:

(a) the force is 8.876 N

(b) the magnitude of each charge is 4.085 μC

Explanation:

Part (a)

Given;

coulomb's constant, K = 8.99 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

distance between two charges, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

force between the two charges, F = 15 N

when the distance between the charges changes to 13 cm (0.13 m)

force between the two charges, F = ?

Apply Coulomb's law;

F = \frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2} \\\\let \ Kq_1q_2 = C\\\\F =\frac{C}{r^2} \\\\C = Fr^2\\\\F_1r_1^2 = F_2r_2^2\\\\F_2 =\frac{F_1r_1^2}{r_2^2} \\\\F_2 = \frac{15*0.1^2}{0.13^2} \\\\F_2 = 8.876 \ N

Part (b)

the magnitude of each charge, if they have equal magnitude

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

where;

F is the force between the charges

K is Coulomb's constant

Q is the charge

r is the distance between the charges

F = \frac{KQ^2}{r^2} \\\\Q = \sqrt{\frac{Fr^2}{K} } \\\\Q =  \sqrt{\frac{15*(0.1)^2}{8.99*10^9} } = 4.085 *10^{-6} \ C\\\\Q = 4.085 \ \mu C

We know that the law of conservation of energy states that energy can not be created or destroyed. It only changes form. Conside
Pavel [41]

The conservation of energy always holds true even when not clearly observable in machines that are less than 100% efficient. More often than not a machine will suffer energy losses (e.g. consider for a cooling fan: friction between the rotating blades, drag resistance in the air the fan is pushing around, resistance in the wire, and heat radiating/conducting away from the circuitry).

please help i really need this for a good grade!!!!! The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Europe is a large device that has spent
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Humanity's "big science" experiments like the "Large Hadron Collider (LHC)" are by themselves not problems to be condemned. They show man's unending quests for answers: to discover their environment and its origin. Similar philosophical quests were summed up by St. Augustine, who noted that "our souls are restless until they find rest in GOD."  

Humanity will continue such experiments, the costs notwithstanding, until we come to faith in Yahweh, who is the creator of heaven and earth and in His Son.  When that faith is attained, our understanding will become complete.  We can then divert the billions to discover the future and not the past.

 

Explanation:

That scientists are spending billions of dollars on the "Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Europe is a necessary evil.  Such billions of dollars are actually the required costs to acquire more knowledge about the created universe.  But, ordinary knowledge puffs.  It is only divine knowledge backed up by Faith in the Savior of the universe that is the antidote to prideful knowledge.

The earthsky.org says that "the most significant discovery to come from the LHC so far is the discovery of the Higgs boson (or the “God particle”) in 2012."  Nobel Prize-winning physicist Leon Lederman referred to the Higgs boson as the "God d..n Particle."  While he was intending to describe how difficult it was to detect the particle, he did not realize that he was 100% correct in the naming.  This discovered elementary particle (otherwise named the Higgs boson or the "God particle") proves that the particle force energy primarily originates from God.

Without God, there is no primary particle force energy which can give rise to the "big bang" theory.  God is that "invisible, universe-wide field that gave mass to all matter right after the Big Bang, forcing particles to coalesce into stars, planets, and everything else," according to Peter Higgs and Francois Englert (1964).  God also caused the Big Bang.

Explain why buildings are wired using parallel circuits rather than series circuits
Drupady [299]
In a series circuit . . .

       There is only one path for current to take. 

All the way from one terminal of the power supply, through all of
the lights, computers, vending machines, air conditioners and
everything else in the building, to the other terminal of the electric
supply.  One path ! 

So the current for EVERY device has to flow through ALL of them,
because that's the only path there is.

If any ONE device in the building was turned off, burned out, or
unplugged from the outlet, then there would be NO PATH for the
current, and everything in the building would lose power !      

Not a very convenient way to operate a house or a building.
