If two opposite charges get farther apart, does their attraction for each other increase, decrease, or remain the same?​

Physics

The force between them <em>decreases</em><em>,</em> as the square of the distance.

For example ...

-- If you move them apart to double the original distance, the force becomes (1/2²) = 1/4 of the original force.

-- If you move them apart to 3 times the original distance, the force becomes (1/3²) = 1/9 of the original force.

-- If you move them apart to 5 times the original distance, the force becomes  (1/5²) = 1/25 of the original force.

(Gravity works exactly the same way.)

A large body collides with a stationary small body from the rear end. How do the bodies behave if the collision is inelastic?.
alexdok [17]
If the collision is inelastic, there is every possibility that the large body will drag the small stationary body along with it in the direction of the collision. Some amount of heat, light and sound energy will also be produced due to the kinetic energy of the large body. I hope the answer helps you.

Question 2 (1 point)
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

I know someone anwsered but it would be 400M

Explanation:

i initial velocity (u)=10m/s

acceleration (a)=0

time taken (t) =40s

then distance (s)=u t +1/2 a t^2

s= u t +0 (as a is 0)

s= 10 x 40

s= 400M

The free-fall acceleration at the surface of planet 1 is 26 m/s^2 . The radius and the mass of planet 2 are twice those of plane
valkas [14]

Answer:

13 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of gravity near the surface of a planet is:

g = MG / R^2

For planet 1, g = 26 m/s^2.

The gravity on planet 2 in terms of the mass and radius of planet 1 is:

g = (2M)G / (2R^2)

g = 1/2 MG / R^2

Since MG/R^2 = 26 m/s^2, then:

g = 13 m/s^2

Explain why models are often used to study other planets ?
bonufazy [111]
The models are used to represent what you are studying in this case would be a planet. A model of Saturn and its rings and the moons surrounding it would be fantastic to look at when you have no way of going there

Find the velocity (in m/s) of a proton that has a momentum of 4.96 X 10^-19 kg.m/s.
kramer

Answer:

The velocity of the proton is 2.965*10^{8} \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The momentum of a particle is defined as the product of its mass by its velocity and we can calculate it using the following formula:

p=m*v Equation (1)

Where:

p: Is the momentum in kg*m/s

m: Is mass of the particle in kg

v: Is the velocity of the particle in m/s

Data known:

m= 1,6726 × 10^–27 kg : mass of the proton

p= 4.96 X 10^-19 kg.m/s.

We replace this data in the Equation (1):

4,96*10^{-19} =1.6726*10^{-27} *vv=\frac{4.9*10^{-19} }{1.6726*10^{-27} }

v=(\frac{4.96}{1.6726} )*(10^{27-19} )

v=2,965*10^{8} m/s

Answer: The velocity of the proton is 2.965*10^{8} \frac{m}{s}
