If one of two interacting charges is doubled, the force between the charges will _____________.

Physics

malfutka [58]3 years ago

If one of two interacting charges is doubled, the force between the charges will double.

Explanation:

The force between two charges is given by Coulomb's law

F=\frac{k q1 q2}{r^{2}}

K=constant= 9 x 10⁹ N m²/C²

q1= charge on first particle

q2= charge on second particle

r= distance between the two charges

Now if the first charge is doubled,

we get F'=\frac{k (2q1) q2}{r^{2}}

F'= 2 F

Thus the force gets doubled.

one car accelerates at half the rate of another how much longer does it take the first car to travel a quarter mile
Orlov [11]

Answer:

t=1/4v1

Explanation:

Given data

Car one

Speed =v1

Time =t

Distance =1/4 mile

Given data

Car two

Speed =v1/2

Time =t

Distance =d

Speed =distance/time

v1=1/4/t

v1t=1/4

t=1/4*1/v1

t=1/4v1 seconds

At a location near the equator, the earth’s magnetic field is horizontal and points north. An electron is moving vertically upwa
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

(b) EAST

Explanation:

you can assume that the magnetic field points rightward, that is, in the positive x direction (NORTH). Furthermore, you can assume that the direction of the motion of the electron is in the positive y direction. Hence, you have:

\vec{B}=B_o\hat{i}\\\\\vec{v}=v_o\hat{j}

You use the Lorentz formula to known which is the direction of the magnetic force over the electron:

F=qv\ X\ B

which implies the cross product between the unitary vecors j and i, that is

\hat{i} \ X\ \hat{j} = -\hat{k}  (WEST)

However, the minus sign of the charge of the electron changes the direction 180°. Hence, the direction is k. That is, to the EAST

Monochromatic light of wavelength 580 nm passes through a single slit and the diffraction pattern is observed on a screen. Both
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Part a)

Width of the slit is

a = 580 nm

Part b)

Ratio of intensity is given as

\frac{I}{I_o} = 0.81

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know by the formula of diffraction we will have

a sin\theta = \lambda

so we have

\theta = 90

\lambda = 580 nm

so we will have

a sin90 = 580 nm

a = 580 nm

Part b)

As we know that the intensity in diffraction pattern is given as

I = I_o (\frac{sin\theta}{\theta})^2

\frac{I}{I_o} = (\frac{sin\theta}{\theta})^2

so for angle 45 degree

\frac{I}{I_o} = (\frac{sin45}{\pi/4})^2

\frac{I}{I_o} = (\frac{sin45}{\pi/4})^2

\frac{I}{I_o} = 0.81

The speed of light is 3.0x10^5 km/sec and it takes light 1.3 seconds for light to travel from the moon to earth froim this infor
Vika [28.1K]
The motion of the light is a uniform motion with constant speed v=3 \cdot 10^5 km/s, therefore we can use the basic relationship between speed, space and time:
v= \frac{S}{t} (1)
where S is the distance covered and t is the time taken. The light takes t=1.3 s to travel from the moon to Earth, therefore by rearranging eq.(1) we can find the distance between the Moon and the Earth:
S=vt=(3 \cdot 10^5 km/s)(1.3 s)=390000 km=3.9 \cdot 10^5 km
