Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is given that a positive test charge q is released from rest at a distance r away from a charge of +Q and a distance 2r which is away from a charge of +2Q.

Then test charge to the right immediately after being released.

Therefore, the net force will be as follows.

            F = \frac{kqQ}{r^{2}} - kq\frac{(2Q)}{(2r)^{2}}

               = \frac{4KqQ - 2KqQ}{4r^{2}}

               = \frac{KqQ}{2r^{2}}

           F = \frac{KqQ}{2r^{2}} > 0

Thus, we can conclude that the test charge move to the right immediately after being released.

Answer:

Thumb

Explanation:

The direction of the magnetic field can be determined by using the right-hand rule. According to this rule, hold a current carrying wire in your right hand such that the thumb of the right-hand point in the direction of electric current. The curled finger gives the direction of the magnetic field.

Hence, the thumb shows the electric current.

The work done in lifting a brick of mass 2kg through a height of 5m above the ground will be
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

D. 100 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass (m) = 2 kg

Height (h) = 5 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Now

Work done(W)

= m * g * h

= 2 * 10 * 5

= 100 Joule

Hope it will help :)❤

Which way will the people on the right move? Why? Plz answer
Scrat [10]
Probably to the right because the force on the left is greater and will therefore overpower the 2N force and push to the right
