Answer:

During those 3.00 seconds before stopping, the car travels a distance of 6 m.

Explanation:

The simple rule of three is a tool that is used to quickly solve problems, where three pieces of information must be known, and one of them operates as an unknown to be known.

Two magnitudes are directly proportional if one magnitude increases the other also does it, and if the magnitude decreases the other in the same way.

Being a, b and c known data and x the unknown, the value that we want to know, the rule of three when the magnitudes are directly proportional is applied as follows:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

So: x=\frac{c*b}{a}

In this case, knowing that a truck travels at 2 m/s, the rule of three applies as follows: if in 1 second the truck travels 2 m, in 3 seconds how much distance does it travel?

distance=\frac{3 s*2 m}{1 s}

distance= 6 m

<u><em> During those 3.00 seconds before stopping, the car travels a distance of 6 m.</em></u>

xenn [34]

Answer:

<em>The force is now 9 times the original force</em>

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law </u>

The electrostatic force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Coulomb's formula is:

\displaystyle F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

Where:

k=9\cdot 10^9\ N.m^2/c^2

q1, q2 = the particles' charge

d= The distance between the particles

Suppose the distance is reduced to d'=d/3, the new force F' is:

\displaystyle F'=k\frac{q_1q_2}{\left(\frac{d}{3}\right)^2}

\displaystyle F'=k\frac{q_1q_2}{\frac{d^2}{9}}

\displaystyle F'=9k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

\displaystyle F'=9F

The force is now 9 times the original force
