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>

Inertia law what happens when You are standing on the bus and the bus stops abruptly:
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

You will fly forward in the bus until you hit something.

Explanation:

While standing there on the bus, you are traveling at the same speed as the bus. If the bus suddenly stops, you will still be traveling at the same speed you started with. That is until you hit something hard enough or big enough to stop you.
