Answer: 1.04N

Explanation:

Given

q1 = 2*10^-6C

q2 = 3.6*10^-6C

r = 0.25m

k = 9*10^9

Magnitude of electrostatic force can be calculated by using coulomb's law. Coulomb's law states that, "the magnitude of the electrostatic force of attraction or repulsion between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them."

F =(kq1q2) / r²

F = (9*10^9 * 2*10^-6 * 3.6*10^-6) / 0.25²

F = 0.0648/0.0625

F = 1.04N

The type of electrostatic force between the charges is the repulsive force

Answer:

The force between the charge is a repulsive force

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between them = 1.0368 N

Explanation:

Since both charges are positive charge, and they have the same sign, from the law of electrostatics, The type of force between the charges is Repulsive force.

Using

F = kqq'/r².......................... Equation 1

Where F = Force between the charges, q = first charge, q' = second charge, r = distance between the charges, k = coulombs constant.

Given: q = 2 μC = 2×10⁻⁶ C, q' = 3.6 μC = 3.6×10⁻⁶ C, r = 0.25 m, k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute into equation 1

F = 9×10⁹(2×10⁻⁶)(3.6×10⁻⁶)/0.25²

F = 64.8×10⁻³/0.0625

F = 1036.8×10⁻³

F = 1.0368 N

Hence the magnitude of the electrostatic force between them = 1.0368 N

Answer:

0.003333 s to 0.000125s or from 3.33ms to 0.125ms wher m is for milli

1.1m to 0.04125 m

Explanation:

T= 1/f=

if f= 300Hz then T = 1/300 =0.003333 s

if f= 8000 then T= 1/8000 = 0.000125s

now v=f×wave length

or wavelength = speed/ frequency

when f = 300 Hz

wavelength = 330/300=1.1 m

wavelength = 330/8000 = 0.04125m

note : i have taken speed of sound as 330 m/s you can take any value given in between 330m/s to 340m/s

A bicycle rider travels 50.0 km in 2.5 hours. Determine the cyclists average speed.
k0ka [10]
There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer can be easily deduced.

Distance traveled by the bicycle rider = 50 km
Time taken to travel the distance = 2.5 hours
So
In 2.5 hours the bicycle rider travels = 50 km
Then
In 1 hour the bicycle rider travels = 50/2.5
                                                     = 20 km
Then the average speed of the cyclist is 20 km per hour.

Consider a coin which is tossed straight up into the air. After it is released it moves upward, reaches its highest point and fa
avanturin [10]

Answer:

GRAVITATIONAL FORCE

Explanation:

We may have noticed that a body thrown upward in air falls back down again after attaining a particular height. The object was able to fall down back due to the effect of gravity acting on it. If there are no force of gravity acting on the body, the body will not fall back but rather disappears into the thin air.

A coin tossed upward in the air which falls back down when released is therefore under the influence of gravity i.e GRAVITATIONAL FORCE while it moves upward after it is released
