Answer:

Unlike Charges:

The unlike charges attracts each other, as we can say that the two atoms or point charges which posses different properties attracts one another.

Explanation:

The electric field lines:

The electric fields shows the direction, the nature, and the magnitude of the charges been placed there in a given space. As the field lines from the positive point charge(+) goes in the outward direction and the negative charges(-) has the field lines coming towards it or they are directed towards inside the test charge.

As, the different charges interact lines when interact with one another, the lines become more curved and they slide over the two charges. Now, that is also due to the number of charges attracted toward each present on the surface of the two charges.

An upward force act on a proton as it moves with a speed of 2.0 x 10^5 meters/seconds through a magnetic field of 8.5 x 10^2

Gekata [30.6K]

Force on a moving charge is given by formula

$\vec F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)$

here we know that this force will be maximum when velocity is perpendicular to magnetic field

$\vec F = qvB$

here we know that

$v = 2.0 \times 10^5 m/s$

$q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C$

$B = 8.5 \times 10^2 T$

now we have

$F = (1.6 \times 10^{-19})(2 \times 10^5)(8.5 \times 10^2)$

$F = 2.72 \times 10^{-11} N$

Mention one life application on density

kow [346]

One well-known application of density is determining whether or not an object will float on water. If the object's density is less than the density of water, it will float; if its density is less than that of water, it will sink.In fact, submarines dive below the surface of the water by emptying their ballast tanks

Why is the air drag on a baseball different than it would be for a smooth ball with no stitches? How does this apply to the desi

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The stitches and dimples around a baseball and a golf ball respectively, disturbs the air drag on the balls once they are in motion, allowing the them to travel more easily.

Explanation:

The stitches on a baseball disturbs the air drag on the ball when the ball is in motion, allowing the ball to travel more easily. Depending on the orientation of the ball in flight, the drag changes as the flow is disturbed by the stitches.

A smooth ball with no stitches or dimples has more air drag that opposes the motion.

A golf ball is smooth ball with dimples to create a thin turbulent boundary layer of air that clings to the ball's surface. This allows the smoothly flowing air to follow the ball's surface a little farther around the back side of the ball, thereby decreasing the size of the wake, and allowing the ball to travel more easily.
