Answer:

The separation between the charges was decreased by a factor of 0.2

Explanation:

The Coulomb's force between two charges is given by;

F = \frac{kq^2}{r^2} \\\\let \ kq^2 \ be \ constant\\\\F_1r_1^2 = F_2r_2^2\\\\r_2^2 = \frac{F_1r_1^2}{F_2} \\\\increasing \ the \ force \ between \ them \ by \ factor \ of \ 25\\\\(F_2 = 25F_1)\\\\r_2^2 = \frac{F_1r_1^2}{25F_1}\\\\r_2^2 = \frac{r_1^2}{25}\\\\r_2 = \sqrt{\frac{r_1^2}{25} }\\\\ r_2 = \frac{r_1}{5}

r₂ = 0.2r₁

Therefore, the separation between the charges was decreased by a factor of 0.2.

A sonar pulse sent out by a boat arrives back after 4 seconds. If the speed of sound in water is 1600m/s, how deep is the water?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

the boat would be deeped by 3200 m

Explanation:

Given that

The boat arrives back after 4 seconds

And, the speed of the sound in water is 1,600 m/s

We need to find out how much deep is the water

So,

As we know that

Distance = ( speed × time) ÷ 2

Here we divided by 2 because the boat arrives back

= (1600 × 4) ÷ 2

= 3200 m

Therefore the boat would be deeped by 3200 m

El aspa de un ventilador de 0.30 m de diametro gira 1200 rev/min. calcule la rapidez tangencial.
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

v = 18.84 m/s

Explanation:

Let the question says,"The blade of a 0.30 m diameter fan rotates 1200 rev / min. calculate the tangential speed."

It is given that,

Diameter of a blade of fan is 0.3 m

Angular velocity of the fan is 1200 rev/min or 125.66 rad/s

We need to find the tangential speed of the fan. The relation is given by :

v=r\omega

r is radius of fan

v=0.15\times 125.66 \\\\v=18.84\ m/s

So, the tangential velocity is 18.84 m/s.
