The electrostatic force between two charges is given by
F= k_e  \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}
where ke is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 are the two charges and d is the distance between the two charges.
We can see from the formula that the force is proportional to \frac{1}{d^2}. This means that if we reduce the distance to one-ninth, i.e. the new distance is
d_{new} =  \frac{1}{9}d
then the force will scale as
 \frac{1}{(d_{new})^2}= \frac{1}{( \frac{1}{9} )^2d^2}= \frac{81}{d^2}
So, the new force will be 81 times stronger than the initial value, therefore the new force is
F_{new}=81 F=81 \cdot 3.0 N=243 N

A conductor is something which allows electricity to pass through it
an example is a coin
An insulator is something which cannot allow electricity to pass through it
an example is plastic (or plastic cotton reel, plastic container ect.)

How long will it take you to travel 20 miles on a bus that drives 60 miles/h?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

<u>20 Minutes</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Well we know Mph (Miles per hour) is distance over time : \frac{distance}{time} \\

R (rate) = 60

d (distance) = 20

t (time) = Unknown

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 R = \frac{d}{t}  

   ↓

60 = \frac{20}{t}

   ↓

 t = \frac{20}{60}

    ↓

 t = \frac{1}{3}  or 0.3333

<em>So basically it would take one third of an hour. Lets change these units to minutes.</em>

60 * 0.333333 = 20

<em>So it would take you </em><u><em>20 minutes</em></u><em> to drive 20 miles on a bus that drives 60 mph</em>

<em />

Hope that helps

Describe the relationship between radius and mass?
algol [13]

Answer:

mass of the earth is directly proportional to its gravity and the radius is inversely proportional to its gravity. ... But when you go inside the surface of the earth inspiteof decreasing radius the force of gravity decreases.

A cylinder of compressed gas has a pressure of 488.2 kPa. The next day the cylinder of gas has a
Luda [366]

Answer:

20 °C

Explanation:

Ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

Rearranging:

P / T = nR / V

Since n, R, and V are constant:

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

488.2 kPa / T = 468 kPa / 281.15 K

T = 293.29 K

T = 20.1 °C

Rounded, the temperature was 20 °C.

A dielectric material such as paper is inserted between the plates of a capacitor as the capacitor holds a fixed charge on its p
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Introducing a dielectric into a capacitor decreases the electric field, which decreases the voltage, which increases the capacitance.

Explanation:

A dielectric (or dielectric material) is an electrical insulator that can be polarized by an applied electric field. When a dielectric material is placed in an electric field, electric charges do not flow through the material as they do in an electrical conductor but only slightly shift from their average equilibrium positions causing dielectric polarization
