Charges are moving away from both charges. Similar charges repel which means that A.) they are negative, and they repel or <span>D.) they are positive, they repel</span>

The correct answer is <span>D.) they are positive, they repel.

The law of charges states that; like charges repel while unlike charges attract. 
</span>∴ The first conclusion we can make from the two charges is that they are like, the repel. 
<span>
Magnetic field lines moves from positive to negative. In the diagram it is clear that the fields are moving from the two charges. 

So therefore, the correct answer is that, the two charges are positive and they repel.</span>

Elden [556K]

Answer:

Since steel contains iron (a magnetic metal), the magnets will attract the steel cans since aluminum is not magnetic. This is used to separate the steel cans from the aluminum cans so they can be recycled separately.

Four charges are on the four corners of a square. Q1 = +5μC, Q2 = -10μC, Q3 = +5μC, Q4 = -10μC. The side length of the square is
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field due to a point charge Q at a point at distance d is given by the relation

E = \frac{K\times Q}{d^2}

Since Q1 and Q2 are of the same magnitude and distance , so they will create eletric field of same magnitude. Similarly field due to rest of the charges will also be same.

The charges are situated on the corners of a square in such a way that

equal charges of Q1 and Q3 are situated on the diametrically  opposite corners of the square. Fields due to these two charges will be equal and opposite in direction. Therefore net field due to these two  charges will be zero.  

On the same ground, we can say that field due to Q2 and Q4 at the centre will be equal and opposite and therefore they will cancel out each other. Net field at the centre will be zero

Overall, net field due to all the four charges will be zero

The intensity of the Sun's light in the vicinity of the Earth is about 1000W/m^2. Imagine a spacecraft with a mirrored square sa
NeX [460]

Explanation:

Formula to represent thrust is as follows.

             F = \frac{dP}{dt}

                = \frac{2p}{dt}

or,           p = \frac{E}{c}

         \frac{p}{dt} = \frac{W}{c}

                  F = \frac{2IA}{c}

                     = \frac{2 (1000 W/m^{2})(5.5 \times 10^{3} m)^{2}}{3 \times 10^{8} m/s}

                     = 201.67 N

Thus, we can conclude that the thrust is 201.67 N.
