Two point charges attract each other with an electric force of magnitude F.a. If one charge is reduced to one-third its original

value and the distance between the charges is doubled, what is the resulting magnitude of the electric force between them?b. If one charge is reduced to one-fourth its original value, how should the distance between the two charges change such that the force F remains constant?

Answer:

a. F'=\frac{1}{12}F

b. d'=\frac{d}{2}

Explanation:

a. The magnitude of the electric force is given by the Coulomb's law:

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}

In this case, we have q_1'=\frac{q_1}{3} and d'=2d:

F'=\frac{kq_1'q_2}{d'^2}\\F'=\frac{k(\frac{q_1}{3})q_2}{(2d)^2}\\F'=\frac{kq_1q_2}{3*4d^2}\\F'=\frac{1}{12}\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}\\F'=\frac{1}{12}F

b. In this case, we have q_1'=\frac{q_1}{4}:

F=\frac{kq_1'q_2}{d'^2}\\\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}=\frac{k(\frac{q_1}{4})q_2}{d'^2}\\\frac{1}{d^2}=\frac{1}{4d'^2}\\d'^2=\frac{d^2}{4}\\d'=\frac{d}{2}

calculate the distance a plane flies on a 7.95 hour flight from Chicago to London. Assume a constant speed of 800.0 km/h
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

6360 km

Explanation:

Use the kinematics equation x=v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2.  We are given t = 7.95 hours and a = 0 m/s^2 (constant speed means there is no acceleration).  Solve for x.

x=(800)(7.95)+\frac{1}{2}(0)(7.95^2)\\x=6360 \ km

What is the mass of a dog that weighs 382 N?(unit=kg)
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: mass = 38.93 kg

Explanation:

Data

mass = ?

Weight = 382 N

gravity = 9.81 m/s2

Formula

Weight = mass x gravity

mass = weight / gravity

mass = 382 / 9.81         substitution

mass = 38.93 kg           result

Using Gauss's law, calculate the electric field at a point distance s from a long wire bearing uniform charge density. i need he
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

E = 2k  \frac{\lambda}{ r}

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the electric flux equals the wax charge between the dielectric permeability.

We must define a Gaussian surface that takes advantage of the symmetry of the problem, let's use a cylinder with the faces perpendicular to the line of charge. Therefore the angle between the cylinder side area has the same direction of the electric field which is radial.

            Ф = ∫ E . dA = E ∫ dA = q_{int} /ε₀

tells us that the linear charge density is

            λ = q_ {int} /l

            q_ {int} = l λ

we substitute

            E A = l λ /ε₀

is area of ​​cylinder is

           A = 2π r l

we substitute

            E = \frac{ l \ \lambda}{ \epsilon_o \ 2\pi  \ r \ l }

             E = \frac{\lambda}{ 2\pi  \epsilon_o \ r}

the amount

            k = 1 / 4πε₀

            E = 2k  \frac{\lambda}{ r}

A young woman with normal distant vision has a 10.0% ability to accommodate (that is, increase) the lens strength (a.k.a, lens p
Kipish [7]

Answer:

20.0 cm

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

The normal power for distant vision is 50.0 D. A young woman with normal distant vision has a 10.0% ability to accommodate (that is, increase) the power of her eyes. What is the closest object she can see clearly?

Solution

Now, the power of a lens, P = 1/f = 1/u + 1/v where f = focal length of lens, u = object distance from eye lens and v = image distance from eye lens.

Given that we require a 10 % increase in the power of the lens to accommodate the image she sees clearly, the new power P' = 50.0 D + 10/100 × 50 = 50.0 D + 5 D = 55.0 D.

Also, since the object is seen clearly, the distance from the eye lens to the retina equals the distance between the image and the eye lens. So, v = 2.00 cm = 0.02 m

Now, P' = 1/u + 1/v

1/u = P'- 1/v

1/u = 55.0 D - 1/0.02 m

1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 1/0.02 m

1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 50.0 m⁻¹

1/u = 5.0 m⁻¹

u = 1/5.0 m⁻¹

u = 0.2 m

u = 20 cm

So, at 55.0 dioptres, the closet object she can see is 20 cm from her eye.
