Answer:
Gravity is the centripetal force when the moon orbits the earth.
Using the given equation:
di = 20.0 * 10.0 / 20.0 - 10.0
di = 200/10
di = 20.0 cm
The answer is A.
This happens in basketball. It is known as "jump ball".
The solution you should use is Hooke's law: F=-kx
It should have the same signs because they repel due to the stretch of the spring.
a. Since there is a constant energy within the spring, then Hooke's law will determine the possible algebraic signs. The solution should be
<span>F = kx
270 N/m x 0.38 m = 102.6 N

b. Then use Coulomb's law; F=kq1q2/r^2 to find the charges produced in the force.
