The rms speed can be calculated using the following rule:
rms = sqrt ((3RT) / (M)) where:
R is the gas constant = 8.314 J/mol-K
T is the temperature = 31.5 + 273 = 304.5 degrees kelvin
M is the molar mass = 2*14 = 28 grams = 0.028 kg

Substitute with the givens to get the rms speed as follows:
rms speed = sqrt [(3*8.314*304.5) / (0.028)] = 520.811 m/sec

How is the electrostatic force affected when the magnitude of a charge is doubled?

BaLLatris [955]

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charges is given by:
$F=k_e \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$
where
ke is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges

We can see that the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the charges. This means that when one of the charges is doubled, the magnitude of the electrostatic force will double as well, so the correct answer is
A) <span>The magnitude of the electrostatic force doubles</span>
