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

The amount of movement of the particles depends on the amount of _________ acting on them and their relationship to other atoms.
Liula [17]

Answer: The amount of movement of the particles depends on the amount of <u>force</u> acting on them and their relationship to other atoms.

Explanation:

The inter-atomic force determines the inter-atomic distance which governs the amount of movement of the particles.

For example in solids, the inter-atomic force is stronger and hence, the distance between any atoms is very very small which restricts the movement of the particles. On the other hand, in case of liquids and gases, the inter-atomic forces are not very strong and there is more distance between the atoms which allows free movement of particles.

In a jet engine, _________________ is sucked into the front of a compressor, where _____________ is injected into the high press
Kay [80]

The answers are; air, fuel, back, forward

The jet engine utilizes the principle that for every action force there is an equal reaction force in the opposite direction. When the exhaust from the combustion in the engine is ejected with great force backwards, the reaction force pushes the plane forward with an equivalent force.
