The electric force between two charged objects of charge +Q0 that are separated by a distance R0 is F0. The charge of one of the

objects is increased to +3Q0, and the separation distance between the objects is reduced to R02. In terms of F0, what is the new electric force between the two objects?

Answer:

F=3F_o(\frac{R_o}{R_{o2}})^2

Explanation:

This problem is approached using Coulomb's law of electrostatic attraction which states that the force F of attraction or repulsion between two point charges, Q_1 and Q_2 is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of their distance of separation R.

F=\frac{kQ_1Q_2}{R^2}..................(1)

where k is the electrostatic constant.

We can make k the subject of formula  as follows;

k=\frac{FR^2}{Q_1Q_2}...........(2)

Since k is a constant, equation (2) implies that the ratio of the product of the of the force and the distance between two charges to the product of charges is a constant. Hence if we alter the charges or their distance of separation and take the same ratio as stated in equation(2) we will get the same result, which is k.

According to the problem, one of the two identical charges was altered from Q_o to 3Q_o and their distance of separation from R_o to R_{o2}, this also made the force between them to change from F_o to F_{o2}. Therefore as stated by equation (2), we can write the following;

\frac{F_oR_o^2}{Q_o*Q_o}=\frac{F_{o2}R_{o2}^2}{3Q_o*Q_o}.............(3)

Therefore;

\frac{F_oR_o^2}{Q_o^2}=\frac{F_{o2}R_{o2}^2}{3Q_o^2}.............(4)

From equation (4) we now make the new force F_{o2} the subject of formula as follows;

{F_oR_o^2}*{3Q_o^2}=F_{o2}R_{o2}^2*{Q_o^2}

Q_o then cancels out from both side of the equation, hence we obtain the following;

3{F_oR_o^2}=F_{o2}R_{o2}^2.............(4)

From equation (4) we can now write the following;

F_{o2}=\frac{3F_oR_o^2}{R_{o2}^2}

This could also be expressed as follows;

F_{o2}=3F_o(\frac{R_o}{R_{o2}})^2

Alex is standing still and throws a football with a speed of 10 m/s to his friend, who is also standing still. The two friends a
Phantasy [73]

The question is incomplete. It comes with a set of answer choices.


These are the answer choices:


Alex observes it as 10 m/s, and his friend observes it as less than 10 m/s.


Alex observes it as less than 10 m/s, and his friend observes it as 10 m/s.


Both Alex and his friend observe it as 10 m/s.


Both Alex and his friend observe it as less than 10 m/s.



Answer: Both Alex and his friend observe it as 10 m/s.


Justification:


1) The speed is relative to the frame of reference.


2) It is said that the both Alex and his friend are standing still.


3) Then, the speed they both see is the same, 10 m/s, respect the Earth (where they are standing still).


Of course, Alex is watching the ball moving away and his friend is seing it approaching, but it is not relevant for the question, as it deals with the speed which is only about magnitude, not direction.

A 0.5 m diameter wagon wheel consists of a thin rim having a mass of 7 kg and six spokes, each with a mass of 1.2 kg. 1.2 kg 7 k
Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the rim of wheel, m₁ = 7 kg

Mass of one spoke, m₂ = 1.2 kg

Diameter of the wagon, d = 0.5 m

Radius of the wagon, r = 0.25 m

Let I is the the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis.

We know that the moment of inertia of the ring is given by :

I_1=m_1r^2

I_1=7\times (0.25)^2=0.437\ kgm^2

The moment of inertia of the rod about one end is given by :

I_2=\dfrac{m_2l^2}{3}

l = r

I_2=\dfrac{m_2r^2}{3}

I_2=\dfrac{1.2\times (0.25)^2}{3}=0.025\ kgm^2

For 6 spokes, I_2=0.025\times 6=0.15\ kgm^2

So, the net moment of inertia of the wagon is :

I=I_1+I_2

I=0.437+0.15=0.587\ kgm^2

So, the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis is 0.587\ kgm^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
