Two charged objects attract each other with a force of F. What happens to the force between them if one charge is doubled, the o

ther charge is tripled, and the separation distance between their centers is reduced to ¼ its original value?
Physics

Ray Of Light [21]2 years ago

Answer:

The force is increased by a factor of 96. (F1 = 96F)

Explanation:

Let the first charge be Q1

Let the second charge be Q2

Let the distance between their centers be r

The electrostatic force, F, between them is:

F = (k*Q1*Q2) / r²

If the first charge is doubled = 2Q1

If the second charge is tripled = 3Q2

The separation between their centers is reduced to ¼ = ¼r

The force between them becomes:

F1 = (k* 2Q1 * 3Q2) / (¼r)²

F1 = (6 * k * Q1 * Q2) / (r²/16)

F1 = 96(k * Q1 * Q2) /r²

F1 = 96F

The force is increased by a factor of 96.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

a. 41.96ft/s

b. 1.096s

Explanation:

a. v²=u²+2gs

v²=31²+2×10×40

V=41.96ft/s

b. t=(v-u) /g

t=(41.96-31)/10

t=1.096s

What is the weight of a 5.00 kg object on Earth? Assume g=9.81 m/s^2.
Softa [21]

<em>weight = (mass) x (gravity)</em>

Weight = (5.00 kg) x (9.81 m/s²)

weight = (5.00 x 9.81) (kg-m/s²)

<em>Weight = 49.05 Newton</em>

A 0.041-kg bullet has a kinetic energy of 600j. What is the velocity of the bullet?
Paladinen [302]

171.0798 M/S

In classical mechanics, kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s2.

The outer planets are similar to the planet Earth; they just happen to be farther away from the Sun.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The inner planets are called terrestrial planets due to the surfaces are solid (similar to Earth)-made up of heavy metals, either have no moons or few moons.

The outer planets are called Jovian planets or gas giants because they are encased in gas.  They all have rings with plenty of moons.
