The initial force between the two charges is given by:

F=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 the two charges, d their separation. Let's analyze now the other situations:

1. F

In this case, q1 is halved, q2 is doubled, but the distance between the charges remains d.

So, we have:

q_1' = \frac{q_1}{2}\\q_2' = 2 q_2\\d' = d

So, the new force is:

F'=k \frac{q_1' q_2'}{d'^2}= k \frac{(\frac{q_1}{2})(2q_2)}{d^2}=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}=F

So the force has not changed.

2. F/4

In this case, q1 and q2 are unchanged. The distance between the charges is doubled to 2d.

So, we have:

q_1' = q_1\\q_2' = q_2\\d' = 2d

So, the new force is:

F'=k \frac{q_1' q_2'}{d'^2}= k \frac{q_1 q_2)}{(2d)^2}=\frac{1}{4} k \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}=\frac{F}{4}

So the force has decreased by a factor 4.

3. 6F

In this case, q1 is doubled and q2 is tripled. The distance between the charges remains d.

So, we have:

q_1' = 2 q_1\\q_2' = 3 q_2\\d' = d

So, the new force is:

F'=k \frac{q_1' q_2'}{d'^2}= k \frac{(2 q_1)(3 q_2)}{d^2}=6 k \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}=6F

So the force has increased by a factor 6.

Answer

F) q1 is halved, q2 is doubled, but the distance between the charges remains d.

F/4) q1 and q2 are unchanged. The distance between the charges is doubled to 2d.

6F) q1 is doubled and q2 is tripled. The distance between the charges remains d.

A rolling ball has an initial velocity of 1.6 meters per second. if the ball has a constant acceleration of 0.33 meters per seco
lukranit [14]
We have:

Initial velocity (u) = 1.6 m/s
Constant acceleration (a) = 0.33 m/s²
Time (t) = 3.6 sec

There are five constant acceleration equations that would help us to find the velocity:

v=u+at
s=ut+ \frac{1}{2}at^2
s= \frac{1}{2}(u+v)t
v^2=u^2+2as
s=vt- \frac{1}{2}at^2

Since we have u, a, t and we want v
We will use the first formula v=u+at

v=1.6+(0.33)(3.6)
v= 2.788 m/s

If an object moves twice as fast how do you think its energy changes? halves
il63 [147K]

Answer:

If an object moves twice as fast its kinetic energy quadruples.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy (K₁) of a body of mass (m) that moves with speed (v) is:

K₁= 1/2 * m* v²

If we double the speed of the body, its kinetic energy (K₂) will be:

K₂= 1/2 * m*( 2v)²

K₂= 1/2 * m* 4 *v²

K₂= 4(1/2 * m *v²)

K₂= 4*K₁

Spacetime interval: What is the interval between two events if in some given inertial reference frame the events are separated b
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

  • a. \Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2
  • b. \Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2
  • c. \Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2

Explanation:

The spacetime interval \Delta s^2 is given by

\Delta s ^2 = \Delta (c t) ^ 2 - \Delta \vec{x}^2

please, be aware this is the definition for the signature ( + - - - ), for the signature (- + + + ) the spacetime interval is given by:

\Delta s ^2 = - \Delta (c t) ^ 2 + \Delta \vec{x}^2.

Lets work with the signature ( + - - - ), and, if needed in the other signature, we can multiply our interval by -1.

<h3>a.</h3>

\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (7.5 \ 10 \ m)^2

\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 5,625 m^2

\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 3 \ s)^2

\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (899,377,374 \ m)^2

\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2

so

\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2 - 5,625 m^2

\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2

<h3>b.</h3>

\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (5 \ 10 \ m)^2

\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 2,500 m^2

\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 0.58 \ s)^2

\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (173,879,625.6 \ m)^2

\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2

so

\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2 - 2,500 m^2

\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2

<h3>c.</h3>

\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (5 \ 10 \ m)^2

\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 2,500 m^2

\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 58 \ s)^2

\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (1.73879 \ 10^{10} \ m)^2

\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2

so

\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2 - 2,500 m^2

\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2

So I'm struggling with rearranging kinematic formulas. Does anyone have any steps or something to help.
bekas [8.4K]

Rearranging formulas is all about simple algebra rules. Just like when solving for x in an equation, you're just isolating whichever variable you want. I'll work this one out for you and hopefully it'll help, but if you need more explanation, then feel free to comment!

D = ViT + 0.5at²   Subtract ViT from both sides

D - ViT = 0.5at²    Divide both sides by 0.5t²

\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} } = \frac{0.5at^{2} }{0.5t^{2} }    I wrote this step out a little more to show how your fraction will cancel

\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} }= a    I like to flip these around so the single variable is on the right

a = \frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} }
