If the distance between 2 charged particles is double, the force between them changes by a factor of?

Physics
1 answer:
aev [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Given that;

q1 and q2 are the magnitudes of the two charges while r1 is the distance between the charges.

F1 =kq1q2/r1^2

Then,

F2 = kq1q2/(2r1)^2

F2 = kq1q2/4r1^2

So,

F2 = 1/4 F1

The force between the charges changes by a factor of 1/4.

Charge flows from low potential to high potential.<br> O True<br> or<br> O False
inn [45]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Think of the electric potential in terms of potential energy. If you imagine a place with high elevation (A) and another one at sea level (B), a ball will roll from high potential to low potential (A-->B).

Everything in our universe wants to reach a lower state of energy if no external force is acted upon it. Every object tends to slow down (friction), a radioactive element dissipates energy (an unstable element releases energy to get to a stable state), water in the clouds comes down to the ground (rain experiencing difference in potential energy).

Electric potential is exactly the same, you just can't see it! It flows from higher voltage (which is a synonym for electric potential) to lower voltage.

Most comets have short periods and orbit close to the ecliptic plane. (T/F)
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Most comets are located outside the solar system, in part of the cloud that originated from dust and gas that has remained virtually untouchable for billions of years. The orbit of these comets can reach the order of a light year. Thus, they are called long-period comets.

During a trial run, race car A starts from rest and accelerates uniformly along a straight level track for a particular interval
kondor19780726 [428]
Answer: car B has travelled 4times as far as Car A

d=vi*t+1/2at^2

No initial velocity so equation becomes;

d=1/2at^2 and the acceleration is the same between both only time is different;

Car A d=1/2a(1)^2

Car B d=1/2a(2)^2

Car A d= 1^2=1

Car B d= 2^2=4

Car B d=4*Car A

So car B has travelled 4 times as far as car A
