Distance is a scalar and measured only by units (meters, feet). Position is a vector and depends on where the origin is. It can be negative or positive and has direction.

M+2-4=3 solve and get 50 pts
Katen [24]
Hey!

First, let's write the problem.
M+2-4=3
Subtract the numbers, we would do the following operation, 2-4=-2
M-2=3
Add 2 to both sides.
M-2+2=3+2

This tells us that our final answer would be,
M=5

Thanks!

Answer:

<em>The new force is 2/3 of the original force</em>

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law </u>

The electrical force between two charged objects is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Written as a formula:

\displaystyle F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

Where:

k=9\cdot 10^9\ N.m^2/c^2

q1, q2 = the objects' charge

d= The distance between the objects

Suppose the first charge is doubled (2q1) and the second charge is one-third of the original charge (q2/3). Now the force is:

\displaystyle F'=k\frac{2q_1*q_2/3}{d^2}

Factoring out 2/3:

\displaystyle F'=\frac{2}{3}k\frac{q_1*q_2}{d^2}

Substituting the original force:

F'=\frac{2}{3}F

The new force is 2/3 of the original force

A charged particle moving along the x-axis enters a uniform magnetic field pointing along the z-axis. Because of an electric fie
Furkat [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the charge particle have charge equal to +q .

force due to electric field will be along the field that is along y - axis . To balance it force by magnetic force must be along   - y axis. ( negative of y axis )

force due to magnetic field = q ( v x B ) , v is velocity and B is magnetic field.

F = q ( v i x B k )  , ( velocity is along x direction and magnetic field is along z axis. )

= (Bqv) - j  

= - Bqv j

The force will be along - ve y - direction .

If we take charge as negative or - q

force due to electric field will be along - y axis .

magnetic force = F = -q ( v i x B k )

= +  Bqv j

magnetic force will be along  + y axis

So it is difficult to find out the nature of charge on the  particle from this experiment.
