Answer:

B. Iron nails are attracted to the magnet

Explanation:

A qualitative observation is an observation that gives qualitative data -as opposed to quantitative-. This means that the data is non-numerical (or unquantifiable). In other words it could be said that a qualitative observation can be reached when you don't count anything. In chemistry qualitative observations can be made of properties such as color, smell, or whether or not a species is attracted to a magnet.

A charge of -3.02 μC is fixed in place. From a horizontal distance of 0.0377 m, a particle of mass 9.43 x 10^-3 kg and charge -9

Answer:

$d = 0.0306 m$

Explanation:

Here we know that for the given system of charge we have no loss of energy as there is no friction force on it

So we will have

$U + K = constant$

$\frac{kq_1q_2}{r_1} + \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_2} + \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2$

now we know when particle will reach the closest distance then due to electrostatic repulsion the speed will become zero.

So we have

$\frac{(9 \times 10^9)(3.02 \mu C)(9.78 \mu C)}{0.0377} + \frac{1}{2}(9.43 \times 10^{-3})(80.4)^2 = \frac{(9 \times 10^9)(3.02 \mu C)(9.78 \mu C)}{r} + 0$
