Answer:

q = Q/2

option c is correct

Explanation:

given data

charge = Q

distance r = 1 m

charge = q

to find out

what should q be

solution

we have given charge q is remove so

q1 = Q-q

q2 = q

we know by coulombs law force

force = kq1q2 / r²   .............1

put here value and we know k is constant

F = k (Q-q) q / 1

now take derivative charge q and put = 0

dF/dq = k d(Q-q)q / dq

so  k (Q-q)q =0

Q = 2q

q = Q/2

so option c is correct

Five difference between elastic collision and inelastic collision?​
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Elastic Collision

Inelastic Collision

The total kinetic energy is conserved. The total kinetic energy of the bodies at the beginning and the end of the collision is different.

Momentum does not change. Momentum changes.

No conversion of energy takes place. Kinetic energy is changed into other energy such as sound or heat energy.

Highly unlikely in the real world as there is almost always a change in energy. This is the normal form of collision in the real world.

An example of this can be swinging balls or a spacecraft flying near a planet but not getting affected by its gravity in the end.

Why is the answer B?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The center of mass lies on a line that joins position 4 of one start with position 4 of the other star.  The shortest distance between these two points will produce the largest velocity. You are using F = m v^2/R

Small R = large force.

Large Force = increased speed.

The masses don't have any effect on the outcome: they remain constant.

well, as u can tell the top layer will always be the youngest layer aka the newest layer. The farther u go down the older the layers get. So the deeper u dig the farther back in time we see.
