As we know that electrostatic force between two charges is given as

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

here we know that electrostatic repulsion force is balanced by the gravitational force between them

so here force of attraction due to gravitation is given as

F_g = 1.98 \times 10^{20} N

here we can assume that both will have equal charge of magnitude "q"

now we have

1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{kq^2}{r^2}

1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(q^2)}{(3.84 \times 10^8)^2}

1.98 \times 10^{20} = (6.10 \times 10^{-8}) q^2

now we have

q = 5.7 \times 10^{13} C

An object with more mass has more kinetic energy than an object with less
Ber [7]

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is given in terms of its mass and object as :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

An object with more mass has more kinetic energy. An object with less  mass, if both objects are moving at the same speed, in opposite directions, will have less kinetic energy. The square of v will give positive number.

Identify all the forces acting on a passenger while going through a loop.
shusha [124]

Answer:

"Gravitational force and the acceleration force" are the forces that are acting on a passenger while going through a loop.

Explanation:

When the passengers reach the top of the loop, The force of the car's acceleration pushes all the passengers off the seat and towards the center of the loop. On the other hand the inertia will try to push the passengers back into the seat. The gravity as well as the acceleration will tend to push the passenger in opposite direction with approximately equal force, which will create a feeling of being mass-less or we can call it weightlessness.

Lena [83]

Answer:

4. Personnel policies and programs

Explanation:

The Health care organizations that apply for Magnet status must demonstrate new ways of doing things and innovations in professional practice.

Personnel policies and programs is one of the forces of magnetism that impacts the structural empowerment of the organization.

The Personnel policies of an organization should provide an innovative environment in which the staff are developed and empowered. Empirical quality outcomes are reviewed by assessing the quality of care. New knowledge, innovations, and improvements are reviewed by assessing the quality improvement of the health care organization. Interdisciplinary relationships are assessed to review exemplary professional practice.
