Answer:

The inertial force of the body

Explanation:

Everybody that is moving in a curved path has an inertial force called centrifugal force.

The counterforce of the centrifugal force is called the centripetal force. It also acts on every rotating body.

This force is always directed towards the center of the origin of the curve.

The velocity of the object changes its direction and magnitude at any instant of time. But the speed and angular velocity of the object remains the same for uniform circular motion.

So, according to the Newtonian mechanics, it is the inertial force of the body responsible for the centripetal force.

Answer:

New force, $F'=48\times 10^3\ N$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting between two charged particles, $F=7.5\times 10^2\ N$

We need to find the force if they are moved so they are only one-eighth as far apart.

The force between two charged particles separated at a distance of r is given by :

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$ ............(1)

If the charges are one-eighth as far apart then, r' =(1/8)r and new force is given by :

$F'=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{(\dfrac{r}{8})^2}$ ..........(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2) :

$\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{1}{64}$

$F'=7.5\times 10^2\ N\times 64$

F' = 48000 N

$F'=48\times 10^3\ N$

Hence, this is the required solution.

First you need to find the initial x component which is 13.02. After that you plug it into the 3rd formula on the AP physics formula sheet. Then rearrange it into the quadratic formula and solve for time. The answer should be 4.1 seconds.
