Answer:

Charge on each is 2 x 10⁻¹⁰.

Explanation:

We know that Force between two point charges is given b the Coulomb's law as:

F = kq₁q₂/r^2

k = 9 x 10^9

r = 3.00 cm

= 0.03 m

q₁ = q₂

F = 4.00 x 10^-7

Rearranging the formula, we get:

F = k q²/r²

q² = Fr²/k

q² = 4 x 10⁻⁷ x 0.03²/(9x10⁹)

q² = 4 x 10⁻²⁰

q = 2 x 10⁻¹⁰

As there is force of repulsion between the charges, the charges must be both positive or both negative.

Which equation can be used to calculate the normal force on an object if you know the speed of the object, the coefficient of ki
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The friction force is the weight force times the coefficient of friction. So diving by the coefficient gives you the weight force which is equivalent to the normal force.

A spring with spring constant 450 N/m is stretched by 12 cm. What distance is required to double the amount of potential energy
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

<em> The distance required = 16.97 cm</em>

Explanation:

Hook's Law

From Hook's law, the potential energy stored in a stretched spring

E = 1/2ke² ......................... Equation 1

making e the subject of the equation,

e = √(2E/k)........................ Equation 2

Where E = potential Energy of the stretched spring, k = elastic constant of the spring, e = extension.

Given: k = 450 N/m, e = 12 cm = 0.12 m.

E = 1/2(450)(0.12)²

E = 225(0.12)²

E = 3.24 J.

When the potential energy is doubled,

I.e E = 2×3.24

E = 6.48 J.

Substituting into equation 2,

e = √(2×6.48/450)

e = √0.0288

e = 0.1697 m

<em>e = 16.97 cm</em>

<em>Thus the distance required = 16.97 cm</em>
