Answer:

We have learned that refraction occurs as light passes across the boundary between two media. Refraction is merely one of several possible boundary behaviors by which a light wave could behave when it encounters a new medium or an obstacle in its path.

3. What conclusion can you make about the electric field strength between two parallel plates? Explain your answer referencing P

KIM [24]

Answer:

From the relation above we can conclude that the as the distance between the two plate increases the electric field strength decreases

Explanation:

I cannot find any attached photo, but we can proceed anyways theoretically.

The electric field strength (E) at any point in an electric field is the force experienced by a unit positive charge (Q) at that point

i.e

$E=\frac{F}{Q}$

But the force F

$F= \frac{kQ1Q2}{r^2}$

But the electric field intensity due to a point charge Q at a distance r meters away is given by

$E= \frac{\frac{kQ1Q2}{r^2}}{Q} \\\\\E= \frac{Q1}{4\pi er^2 }$

From the relation above we can conclude that the as the distance between the two plate increases the electric field strength decreases

How will the electrostatic force between two electric charges change if the first charge is doubled and the second charge is onl

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

B) $\frac{2}{3}$

Explanation:

The electric force between charges can be determined by;

F = $\frac{kq_{1} q_{2} }{r^{2} }$

Where: F is the force, k is the Coulomb's constant, $q_{1}$ is the value of the first charge, $q_{2}$ is the value of the second charge, r is the distance between the centers of the charges.

Let the original charge be represented by q, so that;

$q_{1}$ = 2q

$q_{2}$ = $\frac{q}{3}$

So that,

F = $q_{1}$ $q_{2}$ x $\frac{k}{r^{2} }$

= 2q x $\frac{q}{3}$ x $\frac{k}{r^{2} }$

= $\frac{2q^{2} }{3}$ x $\frac{k}{r^{2} }$

= $\frac{2}{3}$ x $\frac{kq}{r^{2} }$

F = $\frac{2}{3}$ x $\frac{kq}{r^{2} }$

The electric force between the given charges would change by $\frac{2}{3}$ .

What is the distance covered when the speed is 960km/hr and time is 1 hour and 50 minutes?

OLEGan [10]

The distance is 1760 km

The speed is 960 km hour I.e 960 divide by 60 = 16 km/minute
hence in time 1 hour 50 minutes I.e 110 minutes
distance travelled is 110 - 16 = 1760 km
