Answer:

new force is 6 times of the initial force.

Explanation:

Let the charges on two objects is q₁ and q₂. The electric force between charges is given by :

$F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 18.0 units

If the charge of Object 1 is doubled and the charge of object 2 is tripled, it means, $q_1'=2q_1$ and $q_2'=3q_2$ . New force is given by :

$F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{k(2q_1)(3q_2)}{r^2}\\\\F'=6\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\F'=6F$

So, the new electrostatic force between objects will become 6 times of the initial force.

Show how the alternative definition of power, found in your book, can be derived by substituting the definitions of work and spe

Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

$W=[ Fcos\theta]*S$ where $Fcos\theta$ is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

$Hence\ W= FScos\theta$

$= F.S$

As per the question the power P is given as -

$P=\frac{W}{\delta t}$

$=\frac{F.S}{\delta t}$

$= F.\frac{S}{\delta t}$

$= \ F.V$

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V

A 2kg hockey puck is sliding across the ice skating rink at 2 m/s. A player hits the puck so it's velocity increases to 10 m/s.

konstantin123 [22]

The work done on the puck is 96 J

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on the hockey puck is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the puck.

Mathematically:

$W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2$

where

$K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$ is the final kinetic energy of the puck, with

m = 2 kg being the mass of the puck

v = 10 m/s is the final speed

$K_i = \frac{1}{2}mu^2$ is the initial kinetic energy of the puck, with

u = 2 m/s being the initial speed of the puck

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find the work done by the player on the puck:

$W=\frac{1}{2}(2)(10)^2 - \frac{1}{2}(2)(2)^2=96 J$

Explain why engineers leave a gap in a concrete bridge (answer must relate to density)

seraphim [82]

<span>Different materials expand and contract at different rates based on temperature. Just like if you leave a plastic bottle full of water in a freezer it will burst, but if you leave it partially full no problem.....Ok?Expansion joints do the same for bridges. There is a gap to allow for temperature related expansions and contractions. Sometimes you drive over bridges and roadways where this movement is constricted and you might notice a bumpy ride. Engineers can predict the variation of structural length based on span lengths and leave the necessary gaps.....btw, NICE QUESTION:)</span>
