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.

Answer:

5..No work is being done.

Explanation:

Hello!

Remember that the concept of work is defined as the force required to move a certain body distance, it is calculated as the product of force by distance.

therefore, the work required to raise the box is 150J.

However, the work required to keep the box lifted without moving is zero since although the box has a force due to the weight it does not move.

What is the value of x?<br><br> 6x−2(x 4)=12
Ymorist [56]

Answer: The value of x is -6.

Explanation:

To calculate the value of 'x', we need to solve each function happening inthe equation.

The equation provided to us is 6x-2(4x)=12

To solve this, we will multiply 4x with 2 and then subtract the like terms and finally, we evaluate the value of 'x'.

6x-8x=12\\\\-2x=12\\\\x=\frac{12}{-2}\\\\x=-6

Hence, the value of x will be -6.
