The gravitational force between the charged constituents of the atom is negligible compared with the electric force between them

. The electric force is so strong, however, that any net charge on an object quickly attracts nearby opposite charges, neutralizing the object. As a result, gravity plays a greater role in the mechanics of moving objects in everyday life. QUESTION If the distance between two charges is doubled, by what factor is the magnitude of the electric force changed?

Answer: The initial force is reduced a factor 1/4 when the separation between charge is doubled

Explanation: As it well known the electric force between two charges is given by:

Finitial=k*q1*q2/d^2 where d is the distance between charges and k is a constant

if the distance is doubled this means 2*dinitial thus the new force is equal to F initial* 1/4

A 10kg box accelerates forward at a rate of 12 m/s^2. What is the force acting on the box?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

120N

Explanation:

Newton's second law formula: F= ma

given that m = 10 kg, a = 12 m/s^2

F = ma = 10 kg * 12 m/s^2 = 120 kgm/s^2 = 120 N

Three equal point charges, each with charge 1.15 μCμC , are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle whose sides are of
julsineya [31]

Answer:

U=50.96J

Explanation:

The electrostatic potential energy for pair of charge is given by

U=1/4π∈₀×(q₁q₂/r)

Hence for a system of three charges the electrostatic potential energy can be found by adding up the potential energy for all possible pairs or charges.For three equal charges on the corners of an equilateral triangle,the electrostatic potential energy is given by:

U=1/4π∈₀×(q²/r)+1/4π∈₀×(q²/r)+1/4π∈₀×(q²/r)

U=3×1/4π∈₀×(q²/r)

Substitute given values

So

U=3\frac{1}{4\pi E_{o} }\frac{q^{2} }{r}\\  U=3\frac{1}{4\pi8.85*10^{-12} }\frac{(1.15*10^{-6}C )^{2} }{0.0007m}\\  U=50.96J
