Electric Charge andStatic ElectricityIt was known as early as 600BCEthat objects could become charged by rubbing fur on various

substances such as amber. Charged objects could be used to attract light objects such as hair. In the 1700s, it was determined that charge came in two varieties that could cancel each other out. Charles-Augustin de Coulomb established a quantitativerelation in 1783 that describes how charged objects interact via the electric force. The electric force:

Answer:

Explanation:

In 1785, Coulomb investigated quantitatively, the force exerted between point charges.

The Coulomb's Law states that: "The force of attraction or repulsion between two, point charges is directly proportional to the product of magnitude of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. "

If q₁ and q₂ are two, point charges and r is the distance between them, then the electric force of attraction or repulsion F between them, according to Coulomb’s law will be:

F ∝ q₁q₂ ________________________ eqn (1)

F ∝ 1/r²  ________________________ eqn (2)

Combining eqn (1) and eqn (2), we get:

F ∝ (q₁ q₂)/r²  

<u>F = (kq₁q₂)/r²  </u>

where,

k = constant of proportionality = 9 x 10⁹ N.m² / C²

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

1400 N

Explanation:

Change in momentum equals impulse which is a product of force and time

Change in momentum is given by m(v-u)

Equating this to impulse formula then

m(v-u)=Ft

Making F the subject of the formula then

F=\frac {m(v-u)}{t}

Take upward direction as positive then downwards is negative

Substituting m with 0.3 kg, v with 2 m/s, and u with -5 m/s and t with 0.0015 s then

F=\frac {0.3(2--5)}{0.0015}=1400N

A car maintains a constant speed v as it traverses the hill and valley as shown below. Both the hill and valley have a radius of
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

As given that the car maintains a constant speed v as it traverses the hill and valley where both the valley and hill have a radius of curvature R.

(i) At point C, the normal force acting on the car is largest because the centripetal force is up. gravity is down and normal force is up. net force is up so magnitude of normal force must be greater than the car's weight.

(ii) At point A, the normal force acting on the car is smallest because the centripetal force is down. gravity is down and normal force is up. net force is up so magnitude of normal force must be less than car's weight.

(iii) At point C, the driver will feel heaviest because the driver's apparent weight is the normal force on her body.

(iv) At point A, the driver will feel the lightest.

(v)The car can go that much fast without losing contact with the road at A can be determined as follow:

Fn=0 - lose contact with road

Fg= mv²/r

mg=mv²/r

v=sqrt (gr)
