Answer:

The charges are q₁  = 2 × 10⁻⁸ C and  q₂ = 3 × 10⁻⁸ C

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

Two identical tiny balls have charge q1 and q2. The repulsive force one exerts on the other when they are 20cm apart is 1.35 X 10-4 N. after the balls are touched together and then represented once again to 20cm, now the repulsive force is found to be 1.40 X 10-4 N. find the charges q1 and q2.

Solution

The force F = 1.35 × 10⁻⁴ N when the charges are separated a distance of r = 20 cm = 0.2 m is given by

F = kq₁q₂/r₁²

q₁q₂ = Fr₁²/k

q₁q₂ = 1.35 × 10⁻⁴ N × (0.2 m)²/9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² = 0.054/9 × 10⁻¹³ C² = 0.006 × 10⁻¹³ C² = 6 × 10⁻¹⁶ C²

q₁q₂ = 6 × 10⁻¹⁶ C² (1)

When the charges are brought together, the charge is now q = (q₁ + q₂)/2

The new repulsive force F = 1.406 × 10⁻⁴ N  at a distance of r₂ = 20 cm = 0.2 m is then

F₂ = kq²/r₂²

q² = F₂r₂²/k = 1.406 × 10⁻⁴ N × (0.2 m)²/9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² = 0.00625 × 10⁻¹³ C² = 6.25 × 10⁻¹⁶ C²

q² = 6.25 × 10⁻¹⁶ C²

q = √(6.25 × 10⁻¹⁶) C

q = 2.5 × 10⁻⁸ C

(q₁ + q₂)/2 =  2.5 × 10⁻⁸ C

(q₁ + q₂) = 2 × 2.5 × 10⁻⁸ C

q₁ + q₂ = 5 × 10⁻⁸ C (2)

q₁  = 5 × 10⁻⁸ C - q₂  (3)

Substituting equation (3) into (1), we have

(5 × 10⁻⁸ C - q₂)q₂ = 6 × 10⁻¹⁶ C²

Expanding the bracket, we have

(5 × 10⁻⁸ C)q₂ - q₂² = 6 × 10⁻¹⁶ C²

So, q₂² - (5 × 10⁻⁸ C)q₂ + 6 × 10⁻¹⁶ C² = 0

Using the quadratic formula to find q₂

q_{2} = \frac{-(-5 X 10^{-8} )+/- \sqrt{(-5 X 10^{-8} )^{2} - 4X1X6 X 10^{-16} } }{2X1}\\  = \frac{5 X 10^{-8} )+/- \sqrt{25 X 10^{-16}  - 24 X 10^{-16} } }{2}\\= \frac{5 X 10^{-8} )+/- \sqrt{1 X 10^{-16} } }{2}\\= \frac{5 X 10^{-8} )+/- 1 X 10^{-8} }{2}\\= \frac{5 X 10^{-8} + 1 X 10^{-8} }{2} or \frac{5 X 10^{-8}  - 1 X 10^{-8} }{2}\\= \frac{6 X 10^{-8} }{2} or \frac{4 X 10^{-8}}{2}\\= 3 X 10^{-8} C or 2 X 10^{-8} C

q₁  = 5 × 10⁻⁸ C - q₂

q₁  = 5 × 10⁻⁸ C - 3 × 10⁻⁸ C or 5 × 10⁻⁸ C - 2 × 10⁻⁸ C

q₁  = 2 × 10⁻⁸ C or 3 × 10⁻⁸ C

So the charges are q₁  = 2 × 10⁻⁸ C and  q₂ = 3 × 10⁻⁸ C

Answer:

ΔL = L0 C ΔT

We need to find C the constant of expansivity

C = ΔL / (L0 ΔT)

C = .96 / (15.04 * 65) = 9.82 * 10^-4 / deg C

Devise an experiment using a Landsat satellite and hypothesize<br> results.
guapka [62]

An experiment that involves using a Landsat satellite is given below;

Paddy lands detection through the use of Landsat-8 satellite images and object-based classification in  cape town, South Africa.

<h3>What is the experiment about?</h3>

Rice is known to be one of the most vital  food staples in a lot of countries, especially South Africa . Due to the irrigated rice production that tend to  differs from other kinds of  agricultural fields, this study was said to have created a paddy field mapping model via the use of  phenological aspects, a lot of  satellite sensor data, and also the use of object-based approach.

This study  uses the phonological features of rice plants and also the use of an annual data regarding surface temperature (LST) to make the paddy map.

The core remote sensing data is made up of the yearly LST that is obtained from MODIS and multi-temporal Landsat-8 satellite imagery.

Based on the study, the total  accuracy and kappa coefficient for the pixel-based classification method is seen to be  92% and 0.89.

Hence, An experiment that involves using a Landsat satellite is Paddy lands detection through the use of Landsat-8 satellite images and object-based classification in  cape town, South Africa.

How much work would it take to push two protons very slowly from a separation of 2.00×10−10m (a typical atomic distance) to 3.00
laiz [17]

Answer:

Work= -7.68×10⁻¹⁴J

Explanation:

Given data

q₁=q₂=1.6×10⁻¹⁹C

r₁=2.00×10⁻¹⁰m

r₂=3.00×10⁻¹⁵m

To find

Work

Solution

The work done on the charge is equal to difference in potential energy

W=ΔU

Work=U_{1}-U_{2}\\ Work=-kq_{1}q_{2}[\frac{1}{r_{2}}-\frac{1}{r_{1}} ]\\Work=(-9*10^{9})*(1.6*10^{-19} )^{2}[\frac{1}{3.0*10^{-15} }-\frac{1}{2*10^{-10} } ]\\  Work=-7.68*10^{-14}J
