Two point charges, with charge magnitudes q and ????, are placed a distance r apart. In this arrangement, each point charge expe

riences a force of magnitude F. In the three scenarios, q, ????, and r are changed to some multiple of their original values. In each case, fill in the missing value on one of the variables that will result in a force between the point charges that is equal in magnitude to the original F.
Original q Q r
Scenario 1 2q ...Q 4r
Scenario 2 ...q 2Q (1/2)r
Scenario 3 (3/2)q (3/8)Q ...r

Answer:

1)  Q ’= 8 Q ,  2)    q ’= 16 q ,  3)   r ’= ¾ r

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Coulomb's law

      F = k q Q / r²

It asks us to calculate the change of any of the parameters so that the force is always F

Original values

                q, Q, r

Scenario 1

      q ’= 2q

       r ’= 4r

     F = k q ’Q’ / r’²

we substitute

     F = k 2q Q ’/ (4r)²

     F = k 2q Q '/ 16r²

we substitute the value of F

      k q Q / r² = k q Q '/ 8r²

       Q ’= 8 Q

Scenario 2

       Q ’= Q

       r ’= 4r

we substitute

      F = k q ’Q / 16r²

      k q Q / r² = k q’ Q / 16 r²

      q ’= 16 q

Scenario 3

      q ’= 3/2 q

      Q ’= ⅜ Q

we substitute

        k q Q r² = k (3/2 q) (⅜ Q) / r’²

        r’² = 9/16 r²

        r ’= ¾ r

A Van de Graaff generator causes a total charge q to build up on a metal sphere of radius r. Which variable does not affect the
Maru [420]

Answer:

The radius r of the metal sphere.

Explanation:

From Gauss's law we know that for a spherical charge distribution with charge Q, the electrical field at distance R from the center of the sphere is given by

E=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_oR^2}

What is important to notice here is that the radius of the sphere does not matter because any test charge sitting at distance R feels the force as if all the charge Q were sitting at the center of the sphere.

This situation is analogous to the gravitational field. When calculating gravitational force due to a body like the sun or the earth, we take not of only the mass of the sun and the distance from it's center; the sun's radius does not matter because we assume all of its mass to be concentrated at the center.

Each of the four expansion models (recollapsing, critical, coasting, and accelerating) predict different ages for the universe,
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

This is because the age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

Explanation:

The age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

This is due to the fact that the expansion rate in the coasting model is constant and never changes. Because the cosmos is growing faster now than during the old days, recollapsing and critical models give shorter ages. According to the accelerating model, the universe is growing at a slower rate currently than in the past, implying an older age.

A photon of wavelength 3.7 nm Compton scatters from an electron at an angle of 90°. What is the modified wavelength? (Enter your
viva [34]

Answer:

3.70242 nm

Explanation:

Using Compton effect formula

Δλ = ( h / mec) ( 1 - cosθ)

where h is planck constant = 6.62607 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m²kg/s

me, mass of an electron = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg

c is the speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Δλ = 6.62607 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m²kg/s / (9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg × 3 × 10⁸ m/s ) ( 1 - cos 90°) =   0.242 × 10 ⁻¹¹ m = 2.42 × 10⁻¹² m  = 0.00242 nm

modified wavelength = 3.7 nm + 0.00242 nm = 3.70242 nm
