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

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.)

4) Write down the transformation of energy in torch light.<br>​
Elenna [48]

Answer:

<u>The transformation of energy in a torch light is as follows:</u>

1) When the torch is turned ON, the chemical energy in the batteries is converted into electrical energy.

2) The electrical energy is converted into heat and light energy. (We feel the torch to be hot after some time and we can see the light energy)

Hope this helped!

an open tank has the shape of a right circular cone (see figure). the tank is 8 feet across the top and 6 feet high. how much wo
Liono4ka [1.6K]

The amount of work done in emptying the tank by pumping the water over the top edge is 163.01* 10³ ft-lbs.

Given that, the tank is 8 feet across the top and 6 feet high

By the property of similar triangles, 4/6 = r/y

6r = 4y

r = 4/6*y = 2/3*y

Each disc is a circle with area, A = π(2/3*y)² = 4π/9*y²

The weight of each disc is m = ρw* A

m = 62.4* 4π/9*y² = 87.08*y²

The distance pumped is 6-y.

The work done in pumping the tank by pumping the water over the top edge is

W = 87.08 ∫(6-y)y² dy

W = 87.08 ∫(6y³ - y²) dy

W =  87.08 [6y⁴/4 - y³/3]

W =  87.08 [3y⁴/2- y³/3]

The limits are from 0 to 6.

W =  87.08 [3*6⁴/2 - 6³/3] = 87.08* [9*6³ - 2*36] = 87.08(1872) = 163013.76 ft-lbs

The amount of work done in emptying the tank by pumping the water over the top edge is 163013.76 ft-lbs.
