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 kayaker moves 26 meters southward, then 18 meters
Svetllana [295]

Total distance: 56 meters. Magnitude and direction of displacement: 20 meters South.

Explanation:

The term distance refers to space between one point and other, or the total space a body or object covered while moving. In the case presented, this can be calculated by adding the partial distances given. This means the total distance is  56 meters as 26 meters + 18 meters + 12 meters = 56 meters.

On the other hand, displacement considers the distance from the initial position to the final position, and the direction of movement. This means partial distances should not be added but each movement should be considered according to the direction. The process is shown below:

-The first movement was 26 meters southward; this means by the end of this movement the distance between the initial position was 26 meters south.

- The second movement was 18 northward; this means the kayaker moved 18 meters towards the position. This changes the displacement to 8 meters South as 26 meters south - 18 meters north = 8 meters to the South.

-The last movement was 12 meters sound; this means the kayaker increased the distance from the original position 8 meters to the South + 12 meters to the South = 20 meters South (total displacement.)

What is the purpose of chloroplasts, and why do you think it is missing from the root hair cell?
Karolina [17]

Explanation:

Mitochondria are essential parts of many eukaryotes, but they are useless without oxygen. Therefore, chloroplasts are extremely important. They produce breathable air for life. Root hairs are seen to not have chloroplasts as their job is to collect water and nutrients.

How many orders of magnitude (powers of ten) is the distance to the moon greater than the distance across the Atlantic ocean?
kupik [55]

Answer:

The distance to the moon greater than the distance across the Atlantic ocean by an order of 1.

Explanation:

We have the average distance across the Atlantic ocean, d_i=3700\ mi

the average distance to the moon, d_m=238,900\ mi

The factor by which the distance to moon is greater than the width of Atlantic ocean:

f=\frac{d_m}{d_i}

f=\frac{238,900}{3700}

f=64.57

i.e.

the distance to the moon greater than the distance across the Atlantic ocean by an order of 1.
