Answer:

<em>The force on each charge = 16 N</em>

Explanation:

From coulombs law,

F = 1/4πε₀(q₁q₂)/d²........................ Equation 1

q₁q₂ = F4πε₀d²...................... Equation 2

Where F = force on the two charges, q₁ = charge on the first body, q₂ = charge on the second body, d = distance of separation, 1/4πε₀ = constant of proportionality.

<em>When d = 1 m, F = 1 N,</em>

<em>Constant: 1/4πε₀ = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 2,</em>

<em>q₁q₂ = 1×1²/9×10⁹ </em>

<em>q₁q₂ = 1/9×10⁹  C²</em>

<em>When d = 1/4 m, q₁q₂ = 1/9×10⁹  C² and 1/4πε₀ = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1</em>

<em>F =  9×10⁹×1/9×10⁹ /(1/4)²</em>

<em>F = 1/(1/16)</em>

<em>F = 16 N</em>

<em>Therefore the force on each charge = 16 N</em>

what is the mechanical advantage of a crowbar when a worker uses 10N of force to pry open a window that has a resistance of 500N
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

50

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage of a machine is given by

MA=\frac{F_{out}}{F_{in}}

where

F_{out} is the output force

F_{in} is the input force

For the crowbar in this problem,

F_{in}=10 N is the force in input applied by the worker

F_{out}=500 N is the force that the machine must apply in output to overcome the resistance of the window and to open it

Substituting into the equation, we find

MA=\frac{500}{10}=50

Why a body in uniform velocity is zero acceleration ?​
seropon [69]
Uniform velocity means no Net force and therefore no acceleration. Acceleration only happens when the velocity changes.
