Answer:

F_e = +/- 0.013133 N

Explanation:

Given:

- charge on each sphere q = -56 nC

- separation of spheres r = 3.0 cm

- charge constant k = 8.99*10^9

Find:

- Magnitude of Electric Force F_e on each sphere.

Solution:

The magnitude of electric Force F_e of one sphere on other is:

                                F_e = k*q^2 / r^2

- Plugging the given values :

                                F_e = (8.99*10^9) * (56*10^-19)^2 / (0.03)^2

                                F_e = 0.013133 N

- An equal and opposite force is experienced on the other sphere. Hence, F_e = + / - 0.013133 N

Can you please explain me how to do integration in physics in a easy way?

The easiest way to explain it is roughly identical to the way that your teacher explained it in class.  If there were any easier way ... like writing it here in a few paragraphs ... then that's what the teacher would have done.  You would have been given the easy explanation on the first day of class, printed on one sheet of paper, and you would have had the rest of the year to practice it and get really good at it.
If the class spent a month teaching it, then that's about how long it takes.  Sorry.

A 100 kg bag of sand has a weight on 100 N. When dropped its acceleration is what?
Lyrx [107]
100N describes the weight of the sandbag, while 100kg is the mass of the sandbag.

To calculate acceleration, divide your weight by the mass, thus the accleration is:

100N/100kg = 1(m/s^2)

Which of these best explains the ability of small insects to walk on the surface of still water?
Furkat [3]
Well, the surface of still water has surface tension. If there isn't enough mass or weight to break the surface tension, the object will float.

Answer:

Explanation:

Theorem of Binomial Distribution will apply here.

n = 29 , p = .67 , q = 0.33

mean = np = 29 x .67 = 19.43

Standard Deviation = √npq

= √29 x .67 x .33

= √6.4

= 2.53
