Answer:

a. the force between them quadruples

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charges is given by

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

In this problem, the charges on both objects are doubled, so

q_1' = 2q_1\\q_2' = 2q_2

While the distance does not change, so the new force will be

F'= k \frac{(2q_1)(2q_2)}{r^2}=4 (k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2})=4 F

so, the force will quadruple.

Atoms in a solid are in continuous vibrational motion due to thermal energy. At room temperature, the amplitude of these atomic
Bingel [31]

Answer:

10 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Amplitude of atomic vibrations (λ) = 10⁻⁹ cm = 10⁻⁹ × 10⁻² m = 10⁻¹¹ m [1 cm = 10⁻² m]

Frequency of the vibrations (f) = 10¹² Hz

In order to find the atom's maximum speed, we need to make use of the formula that relates speed, frequency and wavelength of the vibration.

Therefore, the formula for maximum speed is given as:

v=f\lambda

Now, plug in the values given and solve for speed 'v'. This gives,

v=(10^{12}\ Hz)(10^{-11}\ m)\\\\v=10^{12-11}\ m/s\\v=10\ m/s

Therefore, the atom's maximum speed due to thermal energy provided is 10 m/s.

Plan an experiment to measure the ideal mechanical advantage of a three-hole punch. (a) What materials would you need? (b) What
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

A) Three hole punch and either a layered plastic or paper

B) Identify the lengths involved  ,

  Length of input arm / length of output arm = L1/ L2

Explanation:

<u>a) Materials involved includes :</u>

Three hole punch and either a layered plastic or paper

Identify the forces acting on the three-hole punch which are Input and output forces

Identify the points where they act

<u>B) procedures involved </u>

The mechanical advantage = output force / input force

step one:  Identify the lengths involved

assuming no friction or relatively small friction \

mechanical advantage can be calculated as : Length of input arm / length of output arm = L1/ L2

The puffin is a bird that lives__________the sea.
Gnesinka [82]
What I found was from another website and it said "For most of the year, Atlantic puffins live on the open ocean, with a range spanning from the eastern coast of Canada and the northern United States to the western coast of Europe and northern Russia. 60% of the world's puffins live near Iceland. Puffins are specially adapted to living<span> on the open sea." here is the link https://animalfactguide.com/animal-facts/atlantic-puffin/

I put the link and a picture so it hopefully won't be deleted for plagiarism.
