Answer: 16N

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the force existing between two charges is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the distance between the charges. Mathematically,

F = kq1q2/r²

Where F is the force between them

q1 and q2 are the charges

r is the distance between them.

If the force between them is 10N, the formula becomes;

10 = kq1q2/r²... (1)

If the distance between them is now halved, the force will become

F = kq1q2/(r/2)²

F = kq1q2/(r²/4)

F = 4kq1q2/r² ... (2)

Dividing equation 1 by 2 we have;

4/F = (kq1q2/r²)÷ (4kq1q2/r²)

4/F = kq1q2/r²×r²/4k1q1q2

4/F = 1/4

Cross multiplying we have;

F = 4×4

F = 16N

Therefore the new force between the charges is 16N

In the general world view of magnetism, magnetic fields arise from : stationary color charges
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The correct option is "moving electric charges or currents".

Explanation:

Magnetic field is used to  define as a field that surrounds a current carrying conductor or moving electric charge by virtue of which it exerts a force on another current carrying conductor or a moving charge itself.

The magnetic field generated by a moving charge is given by

B=\frac{\mu _{o}q}{4\pi }\times \frac{v\times r}{|r|^{3}}

where

q = is the magnitude of charge

v = is the velocity vector of the moving charge

r = is the position vector of the point at which the field is calculated

|r| = is the magnitude of position vector.

Similar the magnetic field generated by a current carrying conductor is given by

B=\frac{\mu _{o}I}{4\pi }\times \int \frac{dl\times r}{|r|^{2}}

where

I is the current

The integration is carried out along the whole length of conductor.

Also since magnetic mono poles do not exist or their existence is not confirmed until now so it is not an appropriate option.

A submarine deep underwater releases a bubble of air. The total pressure at this depth is P. The bubble has diameter, D, and abs
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

P V = n R T      ideal gas equation

P2 V2 / P1 V1 = T2 / T1    

V2 / V1 = T2 / T1 * P1 / P2 = T2 P1 / (T1 P2)

V2 / V1 = (1.17 T1) / T1 * (P1 / .22 P1)      assuming absolute temp as 1.17 P1

V2 / V1 = 1.17 / .22 = 5.32

V = 4/3 pi R^3 = 4/3 pi (D/2)^3 = 4/3 pi D^3 / 8 = pi D^3 / 6

V2 / V1 = D2^3 / D1^3

D2 = (V2 / V1 * D1^3)^1/3

D2 = 5.32^1/3 * D = 1.75 D      (D1 = D)
