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

If the boat's speed is s, and the river's speed is r, and the boat is traveling east (0 degrees),

(0,r) + (s cos297,s sin297) = (6,0)

now just solve for r and s.

If there is an object in top of another object, why does the upper object exert a downward normal force?​
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

This is because normal force is exerted perpendicularly to the point of contact between the upper and lower objects.  

Explanation:

This is because the upper object is still subject to gravitational pull. Therefore, the amount of force it exerts on the lower object due to gravity will be equal to the normal force that acts in the negative direction of gravitational force. Additionally, normal force is evident because the upper object will not go into the lower object.

One mole of an ideal gas expands isothermally from 0.01 m3 to 0.05 m3. The final pressure of gas is 1.2 atm. [15 Marks] determin
erik [133]

Answer:

Initial pressure = 6 atm. Work = 0.144 J

Explanation:

You need to know the equation P1*V1=P2*V2, where P1 is the initial pressure, V1 is the initial volume, and P2 and V2 are the final pressure and volume respectively. So you can rearrange the terms and find that (1.2*0.05)/(0.01) = initial pressure = 6 atm. The work done by the system can be obtained calculating the are under the curve, so it is 0.144J
