Answer:
D. 2.8 × 10⁹ N
Explanation:
The force between two charges is directly proportional to the amount of charges at the two points and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the two points.
Fe= k Q₁Q₂/r²
Q₁= -0.0045 C
Q₂= -0.0025 C
r= 0.0060 m
k= 9.00 × 10 ⁹ Nm²/C²
Fe= (9.00 × 10 ⁹ Nm²/C²×-0.0045 C×-0.0025 C)/0.0060²
=2.8 × 10⁹ N
Answer: 0.42 Amperes
Explanation:
Given that:
Current, I = ?
Electric charge Q = 100 coulomb
Time, T = 4.0 minutes
(The SI unit of time is seconds. so, convert 4.0 minutes to seconds)
If 1 minute = 60 seconds
4.0 minutes = 4.0 x 60 = 240 seconds
Since electric charge, Q = current x time
i.e Q = I x T
100 coulomb = I x 240 seconds
I = 100 coulomb / 240 seconds
I = 0.4167 Amperes (round to the nearest hundredth which is 0.42 amperes)
Thus, 0.42 Amperes of current flows in the circuit.
