Coulomb's law states that the force F of attraction between two oppositely charged particles varies jointly as the magnitude of

their electrical charges q1 and q2 and inversely as the square of the distance d between the particles. Find the effect on F of doubling q1 and q2 and halving the distance between them.

Answer: Force F will be one-sixteenth of the new force when the charges are doubled and distance halved

Explanation:

Let the charges be q1 and q2 and the distance between the charges be 'd'

Mathematical representation of coulombs law will be;

F1=kq1q2/d²...(1)

Where k is the electrostatic constant.

If q1 and q2 is doubled and the distance halved, we will have;

F2 = k(2q1)(2q2)/(d/2)²

F2 = 4kq1q2/(d²/4)

F2 = 16kq1q2/d²...(2)

Dividing equation 1 by 2

F1/F2 = kq1q2/d² ÷ 16kq1q2/d²

F1/F2 = kq1q2/d² × d²/16kq1q2

F1/F2 = 1/16

F1 = 1/16F2

This shows that the force F will be one-sixteenth of the new force when the charges are doubled and distance halved

The maximum speed limit on interstate 10 is 75 miles per hour. how many meters per second is this
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

<h2>33.53m/s</h2>

Explanation:

Given the maximum speed limit on interstate 10 as 75 miles per hour, to get the speed in meter per seconds, we need to convert the given speed to meter per seconds.

Using the conversion 1 mile = 1609.34m and 1 hour = 3600 seconds

75 miles perhour = 75miles/1 hour

75miles/1 hour (in m/s) = 75miles*1609.34m* 1 hour/1mile * 1 hour * 3600s *

= 75 *1609.34m* 1 /1 * 1 * 3600s

= 120,700.5m/3600s

= 33.53m/s

<em>Hence the maximum speed limit on interstate 10 in metre per seconds is 33.53m/s</em>

an audio CD has a diameter of 120 mm and spins at up to 540 rpm. When a CD is spinning at its maximum rate, how much time is req
Andru [333]

Answer:

 t = 0.1111 s

Explanation:

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

    d = 120 mm (1m / 1000 mm)

    d= 0.120 m

    w = 540 rpm (2pi rad / 1 rev) (1 min / 60s)  

     w= 56.55 rad / s

When at maximum speed we can use angular kinematic relationships to find the time for a sperm revolution with zero angular acceleration

     W = θ / t

     t = θ / w

     t = 2π / 56.55

     t = 0.1111 s

For a constant voltage, how is the resistance related to the current?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Resistance is inversely proportional to current, so when the resistance doubles, the current is cut in half. Resistance is directly proportional to current, so when the resistance doubles, the current is cut in half.

Measuring the volume of a ball that is 24cm across how can you set up an equation
BigorU [14]
The volume of every sphere is

           Volume = (4/3) (pi) (radius)³

When you say "across", I think you mean the diameter of the ball.
The radius is half of the diameter = 12 inches.

         Volume = (4/3) (pi) (12 inches)³

                       = (4/3) (pi) (1,728 cubic inches)

                       =    7,238.2 cubic inches .  (rounded)
