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.

What happens to the volume of a loaf of bread that is squeezed? The mass? The density?
nalin [4]

Explanation:

The volume of the bread decreases, making the bread appear more compact, and smaller in size. The mass stays the same, it won't change unless part of the bread is removed. The density increases, the air bubbles inside of the bread get squished down, causing the bread to be smaller, and in turn, causing it to be more solid.

I hope this helped!

Thanks!

A 1.2 kg hammer slams down on a nail at 5.0 m/s and bounces off at 1.0 m/s. If the impact lasts 1.0 ms, what average force is ex
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse results in a change of momentum

FΔt = mΔV

F = mΔV/Δt

The impulse acting on the hammer will equal the impulse acting on the nail

If we assume upward is the positive direction

F = m(vf - vi)/t

F = 1.2(1.0 - (-1.5)) / 0.001

F = 3000 N
