To calculate the initial velocity of the bike, we use the following equation

d=\frac{1}{2} (u+v)t.

or

u=\frac{2d}{t} -v

Here, u is initial velocity, v is final velocity, t is the time and d is the distance covered by bike.

Given, u =7.8 m/s,d= 19 m and t=4.2 s.

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

u = \frac{2 \times 19}{4.2 \ s} -7.8 m/s = 9.05 \ m/s - 7.8 \ m/s \\\\ u= 1.2 m/s.

Thus, the initial velocity of the bike is 1.2 m/s.

Why isn't Coulomb's law valid for dielectric objects, even if they are spherically symmetrical?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Explanation:

The "traditional" form of Coulomb's law, explicitly the force between two point charges. To establish a similar relationship, you can use the integral form for a continuous charge distribution and calculate the field strength at a given point.

In the case of moving charges, we are in presence of a current, which generates magnetic effects that in turn exert force on moving charges, therefore, no longer can consider only the electrostatic force.
