It is actually caused by the environment, so its false. :)
Answer:
r = 2.55 m
Explanation:
Given that,
First charge, q₁ = 32.2 μC
Second charge, q₂ = + 12.3 μC
The force between charges, F = 0.544 N
We need to find the distance between charges. The force between two charges is given by the formula as follows :

So, the charges are 2.55 m apart.
Answer: 3 Amperes
Explanation:
Voltage of battery = 24 volts
R1 = 3Ω
R2 = 5Ω
Total resistance = ?
Current, I = ?
Since the resistors are connected in series, the total resistance (Rtotal) of the circuit is the sum of each resistance.
i.e Rtotal = R1 + R2
Rtotal = 3Ω + 5Ω = 8Ω
Now recall that voltage = current x resistance
i.e V = I x Rtotal
24volts = I x 8Ω
I = 24 volts / 8Ω
I = 3 amperes
Thus, there is 3 Amperes of current in the circuit
