Answer:

1. 8437500 N

2. The force between the two charges is attractive.

Explanation:

1. Determination of the force between the two charges.

Charge 1 (q₁) = –2.0 C

Charge 2 (q₂) = 3.0 C

Distance apart (r) = 80 m

Electrical constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Force (F) =?

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

F = 9×10⁹ × 2 × 3 / 80²

F = 5.4×10¹⁰ / 6400

F = 8437500 N

Thus, the force of attraction between the two charges is 8437500 N

2. From the question given, the charges are:

Charge 1 (q₁) = –2.0 C

Charge 2 (q₂) = 3.0 C

We understood that like charges repels while unlike charges attract. Since the two charges (i.e –2 C and 3 C) has opposite signs, it means they will attract each other.

Thus the force between them is attractive.

Korolek [52]

Answer:

f = pl / (l + p)

Explanation:

1/f = 1/p + 1/l

Find the common denominator of the right hand side.

1/f = l/(pl) + p/(pl)

Add:

1/f = (l + p) / (pl)

Take the inverse of both sides:

f = pl / (l + p)

D. All of the above

At high tide fish will feed among the mangrove roots - rich fishing ground

The trees trap sediment and soil in the river that would flow out to sea which also helps stop erosion

Wildlife utilise almost every part of the tree, with insects and birds, monkeys and lizards in the branches, shrimps and fish in the roots, and snails and clams in the soil

How would you find the total energy stored in the
likoan [24]

Answer:

The energy of the capacitors connected in parallel is 0.27 J

Given:

C = 2.0\micro F = 2.0\times 10^{- 6} F

C' = 4.0\micro F = 4.0\times 10^{- 6} F

Potential difference, V = 300 V

Solution:

Now, we know that the equivalent capacitance of the two parallel connected capacitors is given by:

C_{eq} = C + C' = 2.0 + 4.0 = 6.0\micro F = 6.0\times 10^{- 6} F

The energy of the capacitor, E is given by;

E = \frac{1}{2}C_{eq}V^{2}

E = \frac{1}{2}\times 6.0\times 10^{- 6}\times 300^{2} = 0.27 J
