Answer: the longitude line rotates with Earth, 360 degrees in 24 hours.

Explanation: In the old days, the position of the sun was used to tell which time of the day it is. But more modern findings, has shown that the longitude line matters too.

A sodium ion, Na+, with a charge of 1.6×10−19C and a chloride ion, Cl− , with charge of −1.6×10−19C, are separated by a distance

Answer:

$W\geq 2.1x10^{-19}J$

Explanation:

Due to Coulomb´s law electric force can be described by the formula $F=K\frac{q_{1}.q_{2}}{r^{2}}$ , where K is the Coulomb´s constant ( $9x10^{9} N\frac{m^{2} }{C^{2} }$ ), $q_{1}$ = Charge 1 (Na+ in this case), $q_{2}$ is the charge 2 (Cl-) and r is the distance between both charges.

Work made by a force is W=F.d and total work produced is the change in energy between final and initial state. this is $W=W_{f} -W_{i}$ .

so we have $W=W_{f} -W_{i} =(K\frac{q_{(Na+)}q_{(Cl-)}rf}{r_{f} ^{2}})-(K\frac{q_{(Na+)}q_{(Cl-)}ri}{r_{i} ^{2}})=Kq_{(Na+)}q_{(Cl-)[\frac{1}{{r_{f}}} -\frac{1}{{r_{i}}}]$
