Answer:

F'= 4F/9

Explanation:

Two small objects each with a net charge of +Q exert a force of magnitude F on each other. If r is the distance between them, then the force is given by :

F=\dfrac{kQ^2}{r^2} ...(1)

Now, if one of the objects with another whose net charge is + 4Q is replaced and also the distance between +Q and +4Q charges is increased 3 times as far apart as they were. New force is given by :

F'=\dfrac{kQ\times 4Q}{(3r)^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{4kQ^2}{9r^2}.....(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2), we get :

\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{\dfrac{kQ^2}{r^2}}{\dfrac{4kQ^2}{9r^2}}\\\\\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{kQ^2}{r^2}\times \dfrac{9r^2}{4kQ^2}\\\\\dfrac{F}{F'}=\dfrac{9}{4}\\\\F'=\dfrac{4F}{9}

Hence, the correct option is (d) i.e. " 4F/9"

Which characeristic makes omasis different from diffusion.
Ksju [112]
 <span>haha I used to think biology was so hard, i find it quite easy now. 
Okay, so basically Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Diffusion is generally the movement of a gradient from higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis applies to water only, whereas diffusion, you have many types such as Passive transport [ movement of molecules from high- low, NO CELLULAR ENERGY needed! ] then you have faciliated diffusion ( basically uses a channel protein to allow big substances to go through the membrane : NO ENERGY needed] 
OSMOSIS, the important thing to remember is that water ALWAYS flow towards the region with the higher concentration of the solute (ex: Salt is solute, water is solvent) solute is the thing that is being dissolved. Solvent is the one doing the dissolving. Hope this helped!</span>
