Answer : The force needed is 108 N.

Explanation :

Force : It is defined as the product of mass of an object and acceleration of an object.

Formula used :

$Force=Mass\times Acceleration$

Given:

Acceleration = $1.2m/s^2$

Mass = 90 kg

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

$Force=90kg\times 1.2m/s^2$

$Force=108kg.m/s^2=108N$

The unit of force is, N or $kg.m/s^2$

Therefore, the force needed is 108 N.

∑F = ma = (90 kg)(1.2 m/s²) = 108 N = 100 N (1 significant digit)

An uncharged conductor has a hollow cavity inside of it. Within this cavity there is a charge of +10 µC that does not touch the

aliina [53]

Answer:

Explanation:

we have to make charge inside the conductor zero because we know that electric field inside the conductor should be zero

so, the outer surface of the conductor should contain + 10 uC of charge and the inner surface contains -10 uC

A gas is collected from a radioactive material; upon inspection, the gas is identified as helium. the presence of the helium ind

Flura [38]

The presence of helium gas indicates the radioactive sample is most likely decaying by α-decay, or alpha decay. α-decay is the type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits α particles. α particles are Helium nuclei. So the correct answer would be α-decay.

When the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them?

Llana [10]

If the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them increases by a factor 4.

In fact, 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 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges

We see that the magnitude of the force F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance r. Therefore, if the radius is halved:
$r'= \frac{r}{2}$
the magnitude of the force changes as follows:
$F'=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r'^2}=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{( \frac{r}{2})^2 }=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{ \frac{r^2}{4} } =4k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}=4 F$
so, the force increases by a factor 4.
