Answer:

Work done by the electric force as one of the charges moves to an empty corner is 25.71 KJ

Explanation:

Work done on a unit positive charge = Electric field potential X distance moved by the charge.

Electric field potential = (Kq)/r²

Where;

k is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

q is magnitude of point charge = 4.0 x 10⁻⁶ C

r is the distance between the point charges = 0.715 m

Then, Work done on a unit positive charge =  (Kq)/r² X r

Work done on a unit positive charge = (kq)/r

Work done on a unit positive charge = (8.99 X 10⁹ X 4.0 x 10⁻⁶)/0.715

Work done on a unit positive charge = 25.71 X 10³ J = 25.71 KJ

Therefore, work done by the electric force as one of the charges moves to an empty corner is 25.71 KJ

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 4 m/s to 13 m/s in a period of 3 s. What is your acceleration?
iogann1982 [59]

The acceleration formula goes like this: a= (vf-vi)/t so it would be (13-4)/3 Thus the answer is 3m/s^2

1. Two-point charges, QA = +8 μC and QB = -5 μC, are separated by a distance r = 10 cm. What is the magnitude and direction of t
tiny-mole [99]

Explanation:

Charges,q_1=8\ \mu C=8\times 10^{-6}\ C

q_2=-5\ \mu C=-5\times 10^{-6}\ C

The distance between charges, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

We need to find the magnitude and direction of the electric force. It is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 8\times 10^{-6}\times 5\times 10^{-6}}{(0.1)^2}\\\\F=36\ N

So, the required force between charges is 36 N and it is towards positive charge i.e. +8 μC.
