Speed is the size (absolute value) of the velocity.

Speed is a scalar.  Velocity is a vector.

two electrons are an angstrom (1x10^-10m) apart. What electrostatic force do they exert on one another?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

2.30 × 10⁻⁸ N if the two electrons are in a vacuum.

Explanation:

The Coulomb's Law gives the size of the electrostatic force F between two charged objects:

\displaystyle F = -\frac{k\cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}},

where

  • k is coulomb's constant. k = 8.99\times 10^{8}\;\text{N}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\cdot\text{C}^{-2} in vacuum.
  • q_1 and q_2 are the signed charge of the objects.
  • r is the distance between the two objects.

For the two electrons:

  • q_1 = q_2 = 1.60\times 10^{-19}\;\text{C}.
  • r = 1\times 10^{-10}\;\text{m}.
  • \displaystyle F = -\frac{k\cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}} = -\frac{8.99\times 10^{8}\times (1.60\times 10^{-19})^{2}}{(1\times 10^{-10})^{2}} = 2.30\times 10^{-8}\;\text{N}.

The sign of F is negative. In other words, the two electrons repel each other since the signs of their charges are the same.

When a burning stick of increase is moved fast in a circle a circle of red light is seen.​
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The impression of the image on the retina lasts for about 1/16th of a second after the removal of the object. If a burning stick of incense is revolved at a rate of more than sixteen revolutions per second, we see a circle of red light due to persistence of vision.
