When the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them?

Llana [10]

If the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them increases by a factor 4.

In fact, the magnitude of the electric 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

We see that the magnitude of the force F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance r. Therefore, if the radius is halved:
$r'= \frac{r}{2}$
the magnitude of the force changes as follows:
$F'=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r'^2}=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{( \frac{r}{2})^2 }=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{ \frac{r^2}{4} } =4k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}=4 F$
so, the force increases by a factor 4.

Select Light for the type of wave, adjust the wavelength so that the light is red, and increase the amplitude of the light to th

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

here as we increase the distance the intensity will decrease and hence the amplitude of the electric field will decrease and vice-versa

Explanation:

As wee know that the amplitude of the wave will decide the energy of the wave

Here we know that energy density of electromagnetic wave is given as

$u = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0E_0^2$

now we have

$\frac{I}{c} = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0 E_0^2$

so here we can say that intensity of the wave at the given distance from the source is given by formula

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2}$

so here as we increase the distance the intensity will decrease and hence the amplitude of the electric field will decrease and vice-versa.

Recessed incandescent luminaires not marked type ic and those marked for installing directly in ___________ must not have insula

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Recessed incandescent luminaires not marked type ic and those marked for installing directly in insulated ceilings must not have insulation over the top of the luminaire.

Explanation:

Depending on how they interact with insulation, lighting fixtures are rated at various levels. Non-IC rated lighting fixtures can accommodate higher wattage bulbs, but they also pose the greatest fire risk when used with the incorrect insulation.

In locations with insulation, light fixtures that are not IC rated may be installed. But there is a condition. The distance between the fixture and any insulation should be 3 inches. But the 3 inch gap in the insulation would negate the goal of insulation by producing a lot of uninsulated space, so this defies logic. Building a box-style cover to cover the fixture on the attic side is one option to fix this. Drywall or foil-faced foam insulation can be used to create this box. After the cover is put in place, insulation can be added for maximum effectiveness.
