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

 a Without the atmosphere, average temperature on Earth would be freezing! Below zero to be exact!

b The atmosphere protects us and animals from dangerous radiation from the Sun. Ultraviolet radiation is basically invisible rays of energy created by the sun.

cAlso, the atmosphere provides oxygen for humans and animals to breathe and C02 (Carbon dioxide) for plants.

5 yes it is The water on our Earth today is the same water that’s been here for nearly 5 billion years. Only a tiny bit of it has escaped out into space. As far as we know, new water hasn’t formed either.

That means there’s a very high chance the water in your glass is what thirsty dinosaurs were gulping about 65 million years ago.

A free positive charge released in an electric field will:
choli [55]

Answer:

accelerate in the direction in which the electric field is pointing.

Explanation:

The positive charge feels a force in the same direction as the electric field

F=Eq  

F and E are vectors, q is a scalar

(if it were a negative charge the force would be in the opposite direction)

that force will produce an acceleration in the same direction, that acceleration will cause the particle to move in the same direction, ie the direction of the electric field.
