Sloan [31]3 years ago

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>

A.) Determine the work done by Zach on the bull.
Lana71 [14]

Explanation:

Work done is a physical quantity that is defined as the force applied to move a body through a particular distance.

Work is only done when the force applied moves a body through a distance.

    Work done  = Force x distance

The maximum work is done when the force is parallel to the distance direction.

The minimum work is done when the force is at an angle of 90° to the distance direction.

 So to solve this problem;

 multiply the force applied by Zack and distance through which the bull was pulled.

The electric potential difference across the membrane of a body cell is 0.070 V (higher on the outside than on the inside). The
12345 [234]

Answer:

The electric field is 8.75 \times 10^{6}~v~m^{-1} and the ditection is from outer to inner side of the membrane.

Explanation:

We know the electric field (\vec{E}) is given by \vec{E} = - \nabla V, 'V' being the potential.

In 1-D, it can be written as

E=\dfrac{V}{d}

where 'd' is the separation of space in between the potential difference is created.

Given, V = 0.070~V~ and the thickness of the cell membrane is d = 8.0 \times 10^{-9}~m.

Therefore the created electric field through the cell membrane is

E = \dfrac{0.07~V}{8 \times 10^{-9}~m} = 8.75 \times 10^{6}~m~s^{-1}

If the only forces acting on a 2.0kg mass are F1 = (3i-8j)N and F2 = (5i+3j)N, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the
belka [17]

Answer: 4.7m/s²

Explanation:

According to newton's first law,

Force = mass × acceleration

Since we are given more the one force, we will take the resultant of the two vectors.

Mass = 2.0kg

F1+F2 = (3i-8j)+(5i+3j)

Adding component wise, we have;

F1+F2 = 3i+5i-8j+3j

F1+F2 = 8i-5j

Resultant of the sum of the forces will be;

R² = (8i)²+(-5j)²

Since i.i = j.j = 1

R² = 8²+5²

R² = 64+25

R² = 89

R = √89

R = 9.4N

Our resultant force = 9.4N

Substituting in the formula

F = ma

9.4 = 2a

a = 9.4/2

a = 4.7m/s²

Therefore, magnitude of the acceleration of the particle is 4.7m/s²
