What you can use is coulomb's inverse square law that states that force varies inversly as the square of distance.  <span>It menas that the force is calculated by dividing by distance squared. what this does is essentially as the distance doubles, the forces is reduced by a factor of 4 or can be divided by 4. Force at 0.5m=2.3328N. And brings you ti the answer</span>

Answer:

New force, F' = 2.33 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

A physicist found that a force of 0.72 N was measured between two charged sphere.

The distance between the spheres was, d = 0.9 m

We have to find the force between the two sphere when the distance was decreased to d' = 0.5 m

The force acting between two charged particles is given by :

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

i.e. F is inversely proportional to the square of distance between the charges. Let F' is the force when distance is decreased.

So, \dfrac{F}{F'}=(\dfrac{d'}{d})^2

\dfrac{0.72}{F'}=(\dfrac{0.5}{0.9})^2

On solving, we get : F' = 2.33 N

Hence, on decreasing distance the force between the charges increases.

A uniform rod of length L rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The rod pivots about a fixed frictionless axis at one end.
Svet_ta [14]

Answer: a) 0.315 (V/L)

Explanation:

From Conservation of angular momentum, we know that

L1 = L2 ,

Therefore MV L/2 = ( Irod + Ib) x W

M/4 x V x L/2 = (M (L/2)^2 + 1/3xMxL^2) x W

M/8 X VL = (ML^2/16 + ML^2 /3 )

After elimination we have,

V/8 = 19/48 x L x W

W = 48/8 x V/19L = 6/19 x V/L

Therefore W = (0.136)X V/L

How much work is done lifting a 12-m chain that is initially coiled on the ground and has a density 2 kg/m so that its top end i
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

2587.2 J.

Explanation:

From potential energy,

The work done to lift the chain = potential energy of the chain.

W = mgh............... Equation 1

Where W = work done to lift the chain, m = mass of the chain, g = acceleration due to gravity of the chain, h = height of the chain.

But,

m = m'd............... Equation 2

Where m' = density of the chain, d = length of the chain.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

W = m'dgh................ Equation 3

Given: m' = 2 kg/m, d = 12 m, h = 11 m, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 3

W = 2(12)(11)(9.8)

W = 2587.2 J.
