What is the equation for calculating the electrical force, Fe, between two charges?

1 answer:

4 0

When 2 electric charges are place close to each other they experience a force between them. This force may be repulsive or attractive depending on the type of charges involved.

The magnitude of this force depend on the quantity of individual charges and the distance between them.

The force is defined by the Coulomb's law states that: The magnitude of the electrostatic force of attraction or repulsion between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

The formula for calculating the force between 2 electric charges is ;

F = (kq₁q₂)/d²

Where k is the proportionality constant known as Coulomb's constant,

q₁ and q₂ are the charges and

d is the distance between q₁ and q₂.

You wish to buy a motor that will be used to lift a 10-kg bundle of shingles from the ground to the roof of a house. The shingle

gogolik [260]

Answer:

$\tau=19.21\ N-m$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of bundle of shingles, m = 10 kg

Upward acceleration of the shingles, $a=1.5\ m/s^2$

The radius of the motor of the pulley, r = 0.17 m

Let T is the tension acting on the shingles when it is lifted up. It can be calculated as :

$T-mg=ma$

$T=m(g+a)$

$T=10\times (9.8+1.5)$

T = 113 N

Let $\tau$ is the minimum torque that the motor must be able to provide. It is given by :

$\tau=r\times T$

$\tau=0.17\times 113$

$\tau=19.21\ N-m$

So, the minimum value of torque is 19.21 N-m. Hence, this is the required solution.

A racecar is equipped with a computer that records the reading on its speedometer every second during a race. If you graph this

Westkost [7]

Since the device is a speedometer, the data it read is the speed of the racecar. Data recording involving time usually uses time as the independent variable. It was also said in the problem that it records the speed every second which shows that the time interval is constant. This means that only other data, the car's speed, is the dependent variable.

17. If ice has a density of 0.92g/cm?, what is the mass of a 30 cm block? I

arsen [322]

Answer:

Mass = 27.6 grams

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Density of ice = 0.92g/cm³

Volume = 30cm³

To find mass of ice;

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the equation;

$Density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

Making mass the subject of formula, we have;

$Mass = density * volume$

$Mass = 0.92 * 30$

Mass = 27.6 grams

Therefore, the mass of ice is 27.6 grams.
