Answer:
The force on q₁ due to q₂ is (0.00973i + 0.02798j) N
Explanation:
F₂₁ = 
Where;
F₂₁ is the vector force on q₁ due to q₂
K is the coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²
r₂₁ is the unit vector
|r₂₁| is the magnitude of the unit vector
|q₁| is the absolute charge on point charge one
|q₂| is the absolute charge on point charge two
r₂₁ = [(9-5)i +(7.4-(-4))j] = (4i + 11.5j)
|r₂₁| = 
(|r₂₁|)² = 148.25
= 0.050938(0.19107i + 0.54933j) N
= (0.00973i + 0.02798j) N
Therefore, the force on q₁ due to q₂ is (0.00973i + 0.02798j) N
A simple machine can make work easier by reduce the amount of energy needed to perform a task, therefore, B. <span>it magnifies the potential energy so that the kinetic energy is greater</span> is the correct answer.
As per the question, the velocity of the airplane [v] = 660 miles per hour.
The total time taken by airplane [t] = 3.5 hours.
We are asked to determine the total distance travelled by the airplane during that period.
The distance covered [ S] by a body is the product of velocity with the time.
Mathematically distance covered = velocity × total time
S = v × t
= 660 miles/hour ×3.5 hours
= 2310 miles.
Hence, the total distance travelled by the airplane in 3.5 hour is 2310 miles.
