How much equal charge should be placed on the earth and the moon so that the electrical repulsion balances the gravitational for
kumpel [21]

As we know that electrostatic force between two charges is given as

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

here we know that electrostatic repulsion force is balanced by the gravitational force between them

so here force of attraction due to gravitation is given as

F_g = 1.98 \times 10^{20} N

here we can assume that both will have equal charge of magnitude "q"

now we have

1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{kq^2}{r^2}

1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(q^2)}{(3.84 \times 10^8)^2}

1.98 \times 10^{20} = (6.10 \times 10^{-8}) q^2

now we have

q = 5.7 \times 10^{13} C

When running a half marathon (13.1 miles), it took Kevin 8 minutes to run from mile marker 1 to mile marker 2, and 18 minutes to
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

It took Kevin 26 minutes to run from markers 1 to 4

His average speed from mile markers 1 to 4 is 0.154 miles/minute

Kevin must run by average speed 0.1 miles/minute to finish the race

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

A half marathon 13.1 miles

Kevin took 8 minutes to run from mile marker 1 to mile marker 2 and

18 minutes to run from mile marker 2 to mile marker 4

→ He took 8 minutes and 18 minutes to run from marker 1 to marker 4

→ The total time of the first 4 marker = 8 + 18 = 26 minutes

<em>It took Kevin 26 minutes to run from markers 1 to 4</em>

<em></em>

Average speed is total distance divided by total time

The average speed of Kevin as he ran from mile marker 1 to mile

marker 4 is the 4 miles divides by 26 minutes

→ Average speed = 4 ÷ 26 = \frac{2}{13} = 0.154 miles/minute

<em>His average speed from mile markers 1 to 4 is 0.154 miles/minute</em>

<em></em>

It took Kevin 71 minutes to pass mile marker 9

Kevin need to complete the race in 112 minutes, then what must

Kevin's average speed be as he travels from mile marker 9 to the

finish line?

The total distance of the race is 13.1 miles, he ran 9 miles

→ The remaining distance = 13.1 - 9 = 4.1 miles

He must run 4.1 miles to complete the race

The total time is 112 minutes, he used 71 minutes to run the first 9 miles

→ The remaining time = 112 - 71 = 41 minutes

He must finish the 4.1 miles in 41 minutes

→ His average speed for the last part of the race = 4.1 ÷ 41 = 0.1 mi/min

<em>Kevin must run by average speed 0.1 miles/minute to finish the race</em>
