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.

A flat horizontal surface with an area of 518 cm^2 is inside a uniform electric field of 1.33 x 10^4 N/C. The angle between the
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: 576.48 N*m^2/C

Explanation: In order to calculate the electric flux through the any surface we have to take into account the scalar product between the electric field vector and the normal vector to the surface.

So we have:

ФE= E*A= 1.33 * 10^4*0.0518* cos (33.2°)= 576.48 N*m^2/C
