Answer:

Part a)

q_2 = -6.8 \mu C

Part b)

F = 0.700 N

direction = downwards

Explanation:

As we know that the negative charge will experience the force due to some other charge below it

the force is given as

F = 0.700 N

now we know that

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

now plug in all data

0.700 = \frac{(9 \times 10^9)(0.550\mu C)q_2}{0.220^2}

0.700 = 1.022\times 10^5 q_2

q_2 = -6.8 \mu C

since this is a repulsion force so it must be a negative charge

Part b)

As per Newton's III law it will exert equal and opposite force on it

So here the force on the charge below it will be same in magnitude but opposite in direction

so here we have

F = 0.700 N

direction = downwards

Which equation states Newton's second law?
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

It's actually

F=ma

Force=Mass x Acceleration

So...when we inverse it..

It becomes:

A skateboarder is accelerating forward. How would his acceleration change if he had more mass?
exis [7]

Answer:

If the force remains the same, the acceleration would decrease

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of an object is given by

a=\frac{F}{m}

where

F is the force applied to the object

m is the mass of the object

As we see from the formula, the acceleration a is inversely proportional to the mass, m. Therefore, if the force F remains constant, this means that if the mass of the skateboarder increases, then the acceleration will decrease.

How many grams of CO2 are in 10 mol of the compound?
Zepler [3.9K]

For our problem, this means that one mole of CO2 has a mass of 44.01 grams. So 22 grams divided by 44.01 grams is roughly 0.5 moles of CO2.


hope it helps
