Answer:
A. -2.16 * 10^(-5) N
B. 9 * 10^(-7) N
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Distance between their centres, r = 0.3 m
Charge in first sphere, Q1 = 12 * 10^(-9) C
Charge in second sphere, Q2 = -18 * 10^(-9) C
A. Electrostatic force exerted on one sphere by the other is:
F = (k * Q1 * Q2) / r²
F = (9 * 10^9 * 12 * 10^(-9) * -18 * 10^(-9)) / 0.3²
F = -2.16 * 10^(-5) N
B. When they are brought in contact by a wire and are then in equilibrium, it means they have the same final charge. That means if we add the charges of both spheres and divided by two, we'll have the final charge of each sphere:
Q1 + Q2 = 12 * 10^(-9) + (-18 * 10^(-9))
= - 6 * 10^(-9) C
Dividing by two, we have that each sphere has a charge of -3 * 10^(-9) C
Hence the electrostatic force between them is:
F = [9 * 10^9 * (-3 * 10^(-9)) * (-3 * 10^(-9)] / 0.3²
F = 9 * 10^(-7) N
Answer:
Centripetal Acceleration
In the previous section, we defined circular motion. The simplest case of circular motion is uniform circular motion, where an object travels a circular path at a constant speed. Note that, unlike speed, the linear velocity of an object in circular motion is constantly changing because it is always changing direction. We know from kinematics that acceleration is a change in velocity, either in magnitude or in direction or both. Therefore, an object undergoing uniform circular motion is always accelerating, even though the magnitude of its velocity is constant.
You experience this acceleration yourself every time you ride in a car while it turns a corner. If you hold the steering wheel steady during the turn and move at a constant speed, you are executing uniform circular motion. What you notice is a feeling of sliding (or being flung, depending on the speed) away from the center of the turn. This isn’t an actual force that is acting on you—it only happens because your body wants to continue moving in a straight line (as per Newton’s first law) whereas the car is turning off this straight-line path. Inside the car it appears as if you are forced away from the center of the turn. This fictitious force is known as the centrifugal force. The sharper the curve and the greater your speed, the more noticeable this effect becomes.
Figure shows an object moving in a circular path at constant speed. The direction of the instantaneous tangential velocity is shown at two points along the path. Acceleration is in the direction of the change in velocity; in this case it points roughly toward the center of rotation. (The center of rotation is at the center of the circular path). If we imagine Δs becoming smaller and smaller, then the acceleration would point exactly toward the center of rotation, but this case is hard to draw. We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion the centripetal acceleration ac because centripetal means “center seeking.”

Answer: The correct option is Option b.
Explanation:
Power is defined as the rate of work done by an object.
Mathematically,
.....(1)
And work done is the product of force exerted on the object times the displacement covered by that object.
Mathematically,
Putting this value in above equation, we get:
where,
P = power = ?W
F = Force exerted = 10N
s = Displacement = 400cm = 4m (Conversion factor: 1m = 100 cm)
t = Time taken = 8s
Putting values in above equation, we get
Hence, the correct option is Option b.
