How would you change the distance between two charged particles to increase the electric force between them by a factor of 16

Naily [24]

The electrostatic force between two charges is inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if you want to multiply the force by, say, ' Q ',
you need to multiply the distance by ( 1 / √Q ) .

We want to multiply the force by 16, so we need to
multiply the distance by ( 1 / √16 ) = ( 1 / 4 ) .

The distance should be changed to 1/4 of what it is now.

Answer:

Here is the complete question:

https://www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers/magnetic-field-372-t-achieved-mit-francis-bitter-national-magnetic-laboratory-find-current-q900632

a) Current for long straight wire $=3.7\ MA$

b) Current at the center of the circular coil $=2.48\times 10^{5}\ A$

c) Current near the center of a solenoid $236.8\ A$

Explanation:

⇒ Magnetic Field due to long straight wire is given by (B),where $B=\frac{\mu\times I}{2\pi(r) },so\ I=\frac{B\ 2\pi(r)}{\mu}$

$\mu=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ \frac{henry}{m}$

Plugging the values,

Conversion $1\times 10^6 A = 1\ MA$ ,and $2cm=\frac{2}{100}=0.02\ m$

$I=\frac{37.2\times \ 2\pi(0.02)}{4\ \pi \times (10^{-7})}=3.7\ MA$

⇒Magnetic Field at the center due to circular coil (at center) is given by, $B=\frac{\mu\times I (N)}{2(a)}$

So $I= \frac{2B(a)}{\mu\ N} = \frac{2\times 37.2\times 0.42}{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 100}=2.48\time 10{^5}\ A$

⇒Magnetic field due to the long solenoid, $B=\mu\ nI=\mu (\frac{N}{l})I$

Then $I=\frac{B}{\mu(\frac{N}{L})} \approx 236.8\A$

So the value of current are $3.7 MA$ , $2.48\times 10^{5} A$ and $236.8\ A$ respectively.

The red box must way more. Gravitational potential energy is the product of a an objects mass times the acceleration due to gravity (which is constant on earth) times its height. Since the objects are on the same shelf they are at the same height, and since gravitational acceleration is constant as long as we stay on planet earth, then the mass is the only possible thing that could have changed. This means that the red box must weigh more than the blue box.
