Electrostatic force between two points in space is defined as,

F_e=\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{4\pi r\epsilon_r\epsilon_0}

The r is the distance between them.

So if,

1N=\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{4\pi 2cm\epsilon_r\epsilon_0}\Rightarrow 2\cdot1N=\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{4\pi\cdot10^{-2}m\cdot\epsilon_r\epsilon_0}

Than,

\boxed{\dfrac{1}{4}N}=\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{4\pi\cdot 8cm\cdot\epsilon_r\epsilon_0}\Rightarrow8\dfrac{1}{4}N\Leftrightarrow 2N=\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{4\pi\cdot10^{-2}m\cdot\epsilon_r\epsilon_0}

Hope this helps.

You are standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo; there is negligible friction between
Anni [7]

Answer:

0.074m/s

Explanation:

We need the formula for conservation of momentum in a collision, this equation is given by,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Where,

m_1 = mass of ball

m_2 = mass of the person

u_1 = Velocity of ball before collision

u_2 = Velocity of the person before collision

v_1 = velocity of ball afer collision

v_2= velocity of the person after collision

We know that after the collision, as the person as the ball have both the same velocity, then,

v_1 = v_2

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_2

Re-arrenge to find v_2,

v_2 = \frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}

Our values are,

m_1= 0.425kg

u_1= 12m/s

m_2= 68.5kg

u_2= 0m/s

Substituting,

v_2 = \frac{(0.425)(12)+(68.5)(0)}{0.425+68.5}

v_2 = 0.074m/s

<em />

<em>The speed of the person would be 0.074m/s after the collision between him/her and the ball</em>

A 2.50-m segment of wire carries 1000 A current and feels a 4.00-N repulsive force from a parallel wire 5.00 cm away. What is th
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The current is  I_b  =  400 \ A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  length of the segment is  l  =  2.50  \  m

     The current is  I_a  =  1000 \ A

     The force felt is  F  =  4.0 \  N

        The distance of the second wire is  d =  5.0 \ cm  = 0.05 \  m

Generally the current on the second wire is mathematically represented as

        I_b  =  \frac{2 \pi * r * F }{ l *  \mu_o  *  I_a }

Here  \mu_o is the permeability of free space with value  \mu_o =  4 \pi * 10^{-7} \ N/A^2

=>      I_b  =  \frac{2 * 3.142  *  0.05 *  4 }{ 2.50  *  4\pi *10^{-7}  * 1000 }

=>      I_b  =  400 \ A
