2 answers:

Speed is a description of how fast an object moves; velocity is how fast and in what direction it moves. In physics, velocity is speed in a given direction. When we say a car travels at 60 km/h, we are specifying its speed.

Two electric charges A and B were placed facing each other at a distance of separation "r". The common electrostatic force betwe

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

From the formula of force:

$F = \frac{kAB}{ {r}^{2} } \\$

since AB and k are constants:

$F \: \alpha \: \frac{1}{ {r}^{2} } \\ \\ F = \frac{x}{ {r}^{2} }$

x is a constant of proportionality

• when force is 4N, separation distance is 1

$4 = \frac{x}{1} \\ x = 4$

therefore, equation becomes

$F = \frac{4}{ {r}^{2} } \\$

when r is doubled, r becomes 2. find F:

$F = \frac{4}{ {2}^{2} } \\ \\ F = \frac{4}{4} \\ \\ { \underline{force \: is \: 1N}}$

What is the acceleration of the box?

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a=4,32m/s^2

Explanation:

Fnet = F1 - F2

= 12-1.2

= 10.8N

m=2.5kg

Fnet =ma

10.8=2.5a then divide both sides by 2.5 to get acceleration

the diagram to the right shows an electrical wire. the arrow shows the direction of the current. what does “b” represent?

goblinko [34]

B represents the direction of the magnetic field around the wire

Explanation:

A wire carrying an electric current always produces a magnetic field around itself. The lines of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wires are concentric circles around the wire. The magnitude of the field is given by the formula:

$B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}$

where

$\mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability

I is the current in the wire

r is the distance from the wire

The direction of the field lines is given by the so-called right hand rule, shown in the figure. Basically, the thumb of the right hand is placed in the direction of the electric current, while the other fingers are "wrapped" around the thumb: the direction of the other fingers give the direction of the magnetic field lines.

Coulomb's law for the magnitude of the force FFF between two particles with charges QQQ and Q′Q′Q^\prime separated by a distance

NemiM [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force between two charges of q₁ and q₂ at distance d is given by the expression

F = k q₁ q₂ / d₂

Here force between charge q₁ = - 15 x 10⁻⁹ C and q₃ = 47 x 10⁻⁹ C when distance between them d = (1.66 - 1.24 ) = .42 mm

k = 1/ 4π x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

putting the values in the expression

F = 1/ 4π x 8.85 x 10⁻¹² x - 15 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²

= 9 x 10⁹ x - 15 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²

= 35969.4 x 10⁻³ N .

force between charge q₂ = 34.5 x 10⁻⁹ C and q₃ = 47 x 10⁻⁹ C when distance between them d = ( 1.24 - 0 ) = 1.24 mm .

putting the values in the expression

F = 1/ 4π x 8.85 x 10⁻¹² x 34.5 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²

= 9 x 10⁹ x - 34.5 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²

= 82729.6 x 10⁻³ N

Both these forces will act in the same direction towards the left (away from the origin towards - ve x axis)

Total force = 118699 x 10⁻³

= 118.7 N.
