Answer:

If the distance between charges is doubled, then the Force will become one-fourth.

F' = F/4

Explanation:

The Coulomb's Law gives the relation for the attractive or repulsive forces between two charges. The relation or formula is given as follows:

F = kq₁q₂/r²

where,

F = Attractive or Repulsive forces between the charges

k = Coulomb's Constant

q₁ = magnitude of 1st charge

q₂ = magnitude of 2nd charge

r = distance between charges

If we keep the magnitude of charges constant then the relation between Force an Distance between charges will be:

F α 1/r²

<u>So, it is clear from this relation that if the distance between charges is doubled, then the Force will become one-fourth.</u>

<u>F' = F/4</u>

The upward force exerted on an object falling through air is _____.
stira [4]

(C) Air Resistance

<u>Explanation:</u>

When an object falls through air, air resistance acts on it in upward direction. When air resistance acts, acceleration during a fall will be less than g because air resistance affects the motion of the falling objects by slowing it down. Air resistance depends on two important factors - the speed of the object and its surface area. Increasing the surface area of an object decreases its speed.

hodyreva [135]
A).  Convection is heating the soup in the pot.
When you stick the spoon into the hot soup,
conduction heats the spoon all the way up to the end.

b).  Water conducts heat a little bit. 
But convection is much more responsible for the
uniform distribution of temperature in the kiddie pool.

c).  The heat from the metal bench conducts directly
to the buttus epidermis when you sit on it.

d).  You feel the heat on your face ... but not on the back of your
neck ... on account of radiation from the fire and the hot grill.

A spherical soap bubble with a surface-tension of 0.005 lbf/ft is expanded from a diameter of 0.5 in to 3.0 in. How much work, i
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:W = 1.23×10^-6BTU

Explanation: Work = Surface tension × (A1 - A2)

W= Surface tension × 3.142 ×(D1^2 - D2^2)

Where A1= Initial surface area

A2= final surface area

Given:

D1=0.5 inches , D2= 3 inches

D1= 0.5 × (1ft/12inches)

D1= 0.0417 ft

D2= 3 ×(1ft/12inches)

D2= 0.25ft

Surface tension = 0.005lb ft^-1

W = [(0.25)^2 - (0.0417)^2]

W = 954 ×10^6lbf ft × ( 1BTU/778lbf ft)

W = 1.23×10^-6BTU
