(a) Force between the two charges
The electrostatic force between the two charges is given by:

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 the two charges, r their separation.
In this problem:



Substituting into the equation, we find

(b) direction of particle q2
Particle q2 wants to move in the direction of the force acting on it. The direction of the force depends on the relative sign of the two charges: like charges attract each other, opposite charges repel each other. In this case, the two charges are both positive, so they repel each other and q2 tends to move away from particle q1.
Answer:

Explanation:
Since the formula for kinetic energy of an object is:

Where m is the mass of the object and v is the speed. We can substitute m =
kg and v = 17900m/s:

Answer:
a)T total = 2*Voy/(g*sin( α ))
b)α = 0º , T total≅∞ (the particle, goes away horizontally indefinitely)
α = 90º, T total=2*Voy/g
Explanation:
Voy=Vo*sinα
- Time to reach the maximal height :
Kinematics equation: Vfy=Voy-at
a=g*sinα ; g is gravity
if Vfy=0 ⇒ t=T ; time to reach the maximal height
so:
0=Voy-g*sin( α )*T
T=Voy/(g*sin( α ))
- Time required to return to the starting point:
After the object reaches its maximum height, the object descends to the starting point, the time it descends is the same as the time it rises.
So T total= 2T = 2*Voy/(g*sin( α ))
The particle goes totally horizontal, goes away indefinitely
T total= 2*Voy/(g*sin( α )) ≅∞
T total=2*Voy/g
The total displacement is equal to the total distance. For the east or E direction, the distance is determined using the equation:
d = vt = (22 m/s)(12 s) = 264 m
For the west or W direction, we use the equations:
a = (v - v₀)/t
d = v₀t + 0.5at²
Because the object slows down, the acceleration is negative. So,
-1.2 m/s² = (0 m/s - 22 m/s)/t
t = 18.33 seconds
d = (22 m/s)(18.33 s) + 0.5(-1.2 m/s²)(18.33 s)²
d = 201.67 m
Thus,
Total Displacement = 264 m + 201.67 m = 465.67 or approximately 4.7×10² m.
