Answer:

288.0 units; that is the electrostatic force of attraction become quadruple of its initial value.

Explanation:

If all other parameters are constant,

Electrostatic Force of attraction ∝ (1/r²)

F = (k/r²) = 72.0

If r₁ = r/2, what happens to F₁

F₁ = (k/r₁²) = k/(r/2)² = (4k/r²) = 4F = 4 × 72 = 288.0 units

Bob is threatening Tom’s life with a giant laser with wavelength (650 nm), a distance (D = 10 m) from the wall James is shackled
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

He should stand from the center of laser pointed on the wall at 1.3 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wave length = 650 nm

Distance =10 m

Double slit separation d = 5 μm

We need to find the position of fringe

Using formula of distance

d\sin\theta=n\lambda

d\dfrac{y}{D}=n\lambda

y=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}

Put the value into the formula

y=\dfrac{650\times10^{-9}\times10}{5\times10^{-6}}

y=1.3\ m

Hence, He should stand from the center of laser pointed on the wall at 1.3 m.

What is the definition of work when net force is parallel to the distance?
goldfiish [28.3K]
Work in general is given by W=F·d where F is the force vector and d is the displacement vector.  The dot symbol is the dot product which is a measure of how parallel two vectors are.  It can be replaced by the cosine of the angle between the two vectors and the vectors replaced by their magnitudes.  If F and d are parallel then the angle is zero and the cosine is unity.  So in this case work can be defined as the product of the magnitudes of the force and distance:

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, what is the direction of the force on the test charge?
svetlana [45]

Explanation:

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, it will exert the force in the test charge in the direction of electric field vector. We know that the direction of electric field is given by electric field lines. The field lines for a positive charge is outwards. The electric force acting on the charge is given by :

F = q E

Hence, this is the required solution.
