This image shows a stream of positively charged particles being directed at gold foil. The positively charged particles are call
ed "alpha particles” and each one is like a nucleus without any electrons.

Answer:
The force of repulsion between the two balls will increase
Explanation:
The electrostatic force between two charged objects is given by
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the charges of the two objects
r is the distance between the centres of the two objects
We see that the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the charges on the two objects. in this problem, we have two positively charged balls (so, there is a force of repulsion between them, since like charges repel each other and unlike charges attract each other), and the positive charge in one of them is slowly increased: this means that either or
in the formula is increasing, and so the magnitude of the force is increasing.
Explanation:
Acceleration of an object is calculated by finding the change in its velocity divided by time taken.
If is initial velocity,
is final velocity and t is time taken. Then the acceleration of the object is given by :
.....(1)
So, the above equation is used to find acceleration. It is called the first equation of motion. After rearranging equation (1), the correct options are :
Answer:
Velocity = frequency * wave length
Explanation:
Wave velocity is the measure of how fast the wave is being transmitted to a particular direction.
velocity implies both speed and direction as we know.
The velocity of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency
where
- frequency - number of oscillations per unit time (measured in Hz)
- wave length - distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves (measured in meters)
