If net charge on one object is doubled, then electric force will also get double. It is because they are directly proportional to each other.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The electric force gets doubled.

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law the force acting on charged bodies is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

Mathematically, it can be written as :

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

Where

r is the distance between the charges

In this question, it is given that the net charge on one object is doubled. As we can see from Coulomb's law, the electric force (F') gets doubled.

i.e. $F'=2\times k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

F' =2 F

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

The farther star will appear 4 times fainter than the star that is near to the observer.

Explanation:

Since it is given that the luminosity of the 2 stars is same thus they radiate the same energy per unit time

Consider a spherical wave front of energy 'E' that leaves both the stars (Both radiate 'E' as they have same luminosity)

This Energy is spread over the whole surface area of sphere Thus when the wave front is at a distance 'r' the energy per unit surface area is given by

$e_{1}=\frac{E}{4\pi r^{2}}$

For the star that is twice away from the earth the distance is '2r' thus we will receive an energy given by

$e_{2}=\frac{E}{4\pi (2r)^{2}}=\frac{E}{8\pi r^{2}}=\frac{e_{1}}{4}$

Hence we sense it as 4 times fainter than the nearer star.

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

v=-30 m/s

Explanation:

Using the equation:

v=u+at

v=?

u means initial velocity=0

a=-10 since it is going down we make the acceleration due to gravity negative

t=3

v=0+(-10)(3)

v=-30 m/s
