What's the Coulomb's law?

<span>
In layman's term: </span>like charges don't attract while opposite charges do<span>electrostatic forces between point A( which is charged) and point B (which is also charged) are proportional to the charge of point A and point B. </span><span>there is also something else about this  law that I don't quite remember.</span>

<span>___________________________________________________</span>

<span />Here is the formula:

<span>F = k x Q1 x Q2/d^<span>2</span></span>

<span>What the formula means:</span>

F=force between charges

Q1 and Q2= amount of charge

d=distance between these two charges

k= Coulombs constant (proportionally constant)

________________________________________________

I think that about covers it and hopefully this helped.

Coulomb's law states that if you place two particles of respective charges q_1,q_2 at a distance d from each other, one will exert the following force on the other :

\vec{F}=k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}\vec{u} where \vec{u} is a unit vector from the first charge to the other and k is a positive constant.

A direct consequence of this is that two charges of same sign repel each other, while two charges of opposite signs attract each other.

Convert 0.700 atm of pressure to its equivalent in millimeters of mercury.
inna [77]

Answer:

532 millimeters of mercury

Explanation:

In order to convert the pressure from atm to millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), we should remind the conversion factor between the two units:

1 atm = 760 mm Hg

Therefore, we can solve the problem by setting up the following proportion:

1 atm : 760 mmHg = 0.700 atm : x

Solving for x, we find

x=\frac{(760 mmHg)(0.700 atm)}{1 atm}=532 mmHg

Which energy output objects work with the turbine
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The energy output object that works with the turbine is the alternator (generator)

Explanation:

In energy generation the turbine receives input energy from high pressured steam, high energy water etc. Which impinges and turn the blades of the turbine, this turbine is connected by means of a shaft to the alternator that converts the rotational motion of the shaft to electrical energy through Electro magnetic induction principles and also outputs the energy for consumption.

A box is placed on a 30o frictionless incline. What is the acceleration of the box as it slides down the incline
balandron [24]

Answer:

<em>2.78m/s²</em>

Explanation:

Complete question:

<em>A box is placed on a 30° frictionless incline. What is the acceleration of the box as it slides down the incline when the co-efficient of friction is 0.25?</em>

According to Newton's second law of motion:

\sum F_x = ma_x\\F_m - F_f = ma_x\\mgsin\theta - \mu mg cos\theta = ma_x\\gsin\theta - \mu g cos\theta = a_x\\

Where:

\mu is the coefficient of friction

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Fm is the moving force acting on the body

Ff is the frictional force

m is the mass of the box

a is the acceleration'

Given

\theta = 30^0\\\mu = 0.25\\g = 9.8m/s^2

Required

acceleration of the box

Substitute the given parameters into the resulting expression above:

Recall that:

gsin\theta - \mu g cos\theta = a_x\\

9.8sin30 - 0.25(9.8)cos30 = ax

9.8(0.5) - 0.25(9.8)(0.866) = ax

4.9 - 2.1217 = ax

ax = 2.78m/s²

<em>Hence the acceleration of the box as it slides down the incline is 2.78m/s²</em>

Items Item 3 How much force is needed to cause a 15 kilogram bicycle to accelerate at a rate of 10 meters per second per second?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Net force = (mass) x (acceleration) . . . . that's Newton's 2nd law of motion

Net force = (15 kg) x (10 m/s²)

<em>Net force = 150 Newtons</em>
