Two point charges, initially 2.0 cm apart, experience a 1.0 N force. If they are moved to a new separation of 0.25 cm, what is t

he electric force between them (in N)?

Explanation:

Th electric force between charges is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. It means,

F\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}

Initial distance, r₁ = 2 cm

Final distance, r₂ = 0.25 cm

Initial force, F₁ = 1 N    

We need to find the electric force between charges if the new separation of 0.25 cm. So,

\dfrac{F_1}{F_2}=(\dfrac{r_2}{r_1})^2\\\\F_2=\dfrac{F_1r_1^2}{r_2^2}\\\\F_2=\dfrac{1\times 2^2}{(0.25)^2}\\\\F_2=64\ N

So, the new force is 64 N if the separation between charges is 64 N.

An object 1,000 km above earths surface would accelerate
Verizon [17]

The acceleration which is gained by an object because of the gravitational force is called its acceleration due to gravity. Its SI unit is m/s2. Acceleration due to gravity is a vector, which means it has both a magnitude and a direction. The formula is ‘the change in velocity= gravity x time’ The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Earth is represented as g. It has a standard value defined as 9.80665 m/s2.[1]

<h3>Answer: 104.5 cubic cm</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

r = radius = 1.045 cm

h = height = 30.48 cm

pi = 3.141 approximately

V = volume of cylinder

V = pi*r^2*h

V = 3.141*(1.045)^2*30.48

V = 104.547940002

V = 104.5 cubic cm
