Answer:

The new force will decrease to one sixth the original value.

Explanation:

It is given that,

One charge is decreased to one-third of its original value, and a second charge is decreased to one-half of its original value.

Let, q'_1=\dfrac{1}{3}q_1 q₁ is the charge 1

q'_2=\dfrac{1}{2}q_2 q₂ is the charge 2

Initially, the electrical force between the charges is given by :

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}...........(1)

Let F' is the new force i.e.

F'=k\dfrac{q'_1q'_2}{r^2}

So,

F'=k\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{3}q_1\times \dfrac{1}{2}q_2}{r^2}

F'=\dfrac{1}{6}k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

F'=\dfrac{1}{6}F  (from equation 1)

Hence, the new force will decrease to one sixth the original value.

Answer:

Explanation:

All the displacement will be converted into vector, considering east as x axis and north as y axis.

5.3 km north

D = 5.3 j

8.3 km at 50 degree north of east

D₁= 8.3 cos 50 i + 8.3 sin 50 j.

= 5.33 i + 6.36 j

Let D₂ be the displacement which when added to D₁ gives the required displacement D

D₁ + D₂ = D

5.33 i + 6.36 j + D₂ = 5.3 j

D₂ = 5.3 j - 5.33i - 6.36j

= - 5.33i - 1.06 j

magnitude of D₂

D₂²= 5.33² + 1.06²

D₂ = 5.43 km

Angle θ

Tanθ = 1.06 / 5.33

= 0.1988

θ =11.25 ° south of due west.

Tju [1.3M]

The time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth will be 8.4 minutes.

To find the answer, we need to know about the distance travelled by light.

<h3>How to find the time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth?</h3>
  • So, in order to solve this problem, we must first know how far the moon is from Earth and how far the Sun is from the moon.
  • These distances are given as 3.8×10^5 km (Earth-Moon) and 1.5×10^8 km (Sun- Earth).
  • Since the Moon and Sun are on opposite sides of Earth during a full moon, the light's distance traveled equals,

         d=(1.5*10^8km)+2(3.8*10^5km)=1.51*10^8km=1.51*10^{11}m

  • As we know that light travels at a speed of 300,000 km per second. then, the time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth will be,

                      t=\frac{1.51*10^{11}}{3*10^8}=503.33 s\\t=\frac{503.33}{60}=8.4min

Thus, the time it takes for the light from the Sun to reach Earth and be recognized as 8.4 minutes.
