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

Physics

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 <em>Coulomb's law</em> states that: <em>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.</em>

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.

Charge is actually either excessive number or electrons or shortage of them.
as you can't destroy the electron or create it - you can't destroy or create charge

A 6,000N is applied to a formula one car that weighs 500kg. What is the car's acceleration?
Vesna [10]

Answer:

<h2>12 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question

f = 6000 N

m = 500 kg

We have

a =  \frac{6000}{500}  =  \frac{60}{5}  = 12 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>12 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
