Describe the difference between contact forces and field forces.

1 answer:

8 0

Contact forces has to be touching for it to be an actual force. A field force does not have to be touching but it does have to be acting on particles at different positions in a space.

The distance between two particles is 2 centimeters. If the distance is increased to 4 centimeters, the force will be ?

postnew [5]

Answer:

The new force is 1/4 of the previous force.

Explanation:

Given

$Initial\ Distance = 2cm$ ---- $r_1$

$New\ Distance = 4cm$ --- $r_2$

Required

Determine the new force

Let the two particles be q1 and q2.

The initial force F1 is:

$F_1 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_1^2}$ --- Coulomb's law

Substitute 2 for r1

$F_1 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{2^2}$

$F_1 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{4}$

The new force (F2) is

$F_2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_2^2}$

Substitute 4 for r2

$F_2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{4^2}$

$F_2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{4*4}$

$F_2 = \frac{1}{4}*\frac{kq_1q_2}{4}$

Substitute $F_1 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{4}$

$F_2 = \frac{1}{4}*F_1$

$F_2 = \frac{F_1}{4}$

The new force is 1/4 of the previous force.
