Two particles with oppositely signed charges are held a fixed distance apart. The charges are equal in magnitude and they exert
damaskus [11]

Answer:

the force will decrease to 3/4 of its original value.

Explanation:

The initial electric force between the two charges is:

F = k \frac{q\cdot q}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q is the magnitude of each charge

r is their separation

Later, half of one charge is transferred to the other charge; this means that one charge will have a charge of

q+\frac{q}{2}=\frac{3}{2}q

while the other charge will be

q-\frac{q}{2}=\frac{q}{2}

So, the new force will be

F' = k \frac{(\frac{q}{2})\cdot (\frac{3}{2}q)}{r^2}=\frac{3}{4} (k\frac{q\cdot q}{r^2})=\frac{3}{4}F

So, the force will decrease to 3/4 of its original value.

Two resistances, R1 and R2, are connected in series across a 9-V battery. The current increases by 0.450 A when R2 is removed, l
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

a. R1 = 0.162 Ω

b. R2 = 0.340 Ω

Explanation:

Since the resistors R1 and R2 are connected in series, the current flowing through them when the 9 V battery is applied is 9/R1 + R2.

When the current increases by 0.450 A wen only R1 is in the circuit, the current is

9/R1 + R2 + 0.450 A = 9/R1       (1)

When the current increases by 0.225 A when only R2 is in the circuit, the current is

9/R1 + R2 + 0.225 A = 9/R2       (2)

equation (1) - (2) equals

9(1/R1 - 1/R2) = 0.450 A - 0.225

9(1/R1 - 1/R2) = 0.125

(1/R1 - 1/R2) = 0.125 A/9 = 0.0138

1/R1 = 0.0138 + 1/R2

R1 = R2/(1 + 0.0138R2)     (3)

From (1)

9/R1 - 9/R1 + R2 = 0.450 A

9R2/[R1(R1 + R2)] = 0.450 A

R2/[R1(R1 + R2)] = 0.450 A/9 = 0.5

R2/[R1(R1 + R2)] = 0.5    (4)

From (3) R2/R1 = (1 + 0.0138R2) and from (4) R2/R1 = 0.5(R1 + R2). So,

(1 + 0.0138R2) = 0.5(R1 + R2)

0.5R1 + 0.5R2 = 1 + 0.0138R2

0.5R1 = 1 + 0.0138R2 - 0.5R2

0.5R1 = 1 - 0.4862R2        (5)

Substituting (3) into (5) we have

0.5R2/(1 + 0.0138R2) = 1 - 0.4862R2

R2 = (1 + 0.0138R2)(1 - 0.4862R2)

R2 = 1 - 0.4724R2 - 0.0067R2²

Collecting like terms, we have

0.0067R2² + 0.4724R2 + R2 - 1 = 0

0.0067R2² + 1.4724R2 - 1 = 0

Using the quadratic formula,

R_{2} = \frac{-1.4724 +/-\sqrt{(1.4724)^{2} - 4 X 0.0067 X -1} }{2 X 0.0067}  \\= \frac{-1.4724 +/-\sqrt{2.1680 + 0.0268} }{0.0268}\\= \frac{-1.4724 +/-\sqrt{2.1948} }{0.0268}\\= \frac{-1.4724 +/- 1.4815 }{0.0268}\\= \frac{-1.4724 + 1.4815 }{0.0268} or \frac{-1.4724 - 1.4815 }{0.0268}\\= \frac{0.0091 }{0.0268} or \frac{-2.9539}{0.0268}\\= 0.340 or -110.22

We choose the positive answer.

So R2 = 0.340 Ω

From (5)

R1 = 0.5 - 0.9931R2

   = 0.5 - 0.9931 × 0.340

   = 0.5 - 0.338

   = 0.162 Ω

a. R1 = 0.162 Ω

b. R2 = 0.340 Ω
