<h3>Answer: The acceleration doubles</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Consider a mass of 10 kg, so m = 10

Let's say we apply a net force of 20 newtons, so F = 20

The acceleration 'a' is...

F = ma

20 = 10a

20/10 = a

2 = a

a = 2

The acceleration is 2 m/s^2. Every second, the velocity increases by 10 m/s.

---------------

Now let's double the net force on the object

F = 20 goes to F = 40

m = 10 stays the same

F = ma

40 = 10a

10a = 40

a = 40/10

a = 4

The acceleration has also doubled since earlier it was a = 2, but now it's a = 4.

---------------

In summary, if you double the net force applied to the object, then the acceleration doubles as well.

Acceleration is directly proportional to the net force on an object, and inversely proportional to its mass.

So if an object's mass stays the same while the net force on it doubles, then <em>its acceleration will also double</em>.

We don't know anything about the "trials". This sounds like it might be a follow-up to a lab experiment that was performed when we weren't there.

We also don't know anything about "question 1".

Explanation:

As the given spheres are connected by a thin wire so, the potential on the spheres are the same.

$\frac{q_{1}}{r_{1}} = \frac{q_{2}}{r_{2}}$ ......... (1)

Hence, total charge will be as follows.

$q_{1} + q_{2}$ = Q = -95.5 nC .......... (2)

Using the above two equations, the final equation will be as follows.

$q_{2} = \frac{Qr_{2}}{r_{1} + r_{2}}$

and, $q_{1} = \frac{Qr_{1}}{r_{1} + r_{2}}$

Hence, we will calculate the charge on sphere B after the equilibrium is reached as follows.

$q_{2} = \frac{Qr_{2}}{r_{1} + r_{2}}$

= $\frac{-95.5 \times 74.4 cm}{(11.5 + 74.4) cm}$

= 82.714 nC

Thus, we can conclude that the charge on sphere B after equilibrium has been reached is 82.714 nC.

Setler79 [48]

Because the tip of the moon's shadow ... the area of "totality" ... is never more than a couple hundred miles across, It never covers a single place for more than 7 minutes, and can never stay on the Earth's surface for more than a few hours altogether during one eclipse.

If you're not inside that small area, you don't see a total eclipse.
