Answer:

<em>b. The force is 6 times the original</em>

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law </u>

The electrostatic force between two charged objects is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Written as a formula:

\displaystyle F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

Where:

k=9\cdot 10^9\ N.m^2/c^2

q1, q2 = the objects' charge

d= The distance between the objects

Suppose one of the charges is doubled, i.e., q1=2q1 and the other charge is tripled (q2'=3q2). The new force F' would be:

\displaystyle F'=k\frac{(2q_1)(3q_2)}{d^2}

Operating:

\displaystyle F'=k\frac{6q_1q_2}{d^2}

\displaystyle F'=6\cdot k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

Substituting the original value of the force:

F'=6\cdot F

b. The force is 6 times the original

A team of eight dogs pulls a sled with waxed wood runners on wet snow (mush!). The dogs have average masses of 18.5 kg, and the
meriva

Answer:

a.2.86 m/s^2

b.1058 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of each dog,M=18.5 kg

Mass of sled with rider,m=250 kg

a.Average force,F=185 N

\mu_s=0.14

g=9.8 m/s^2

By Newton's second law

8F-f=(8M+m)a

a=\frac{8F-f}{8M+m}=\frac{8(185)-(0.14)(9.8)(250)}{8(18.5)+250}

a=2.86 m/s^2

b.By Newton's second law

T=ma+\mu_s mg

Substitute the values

T=250\times 2.86+0.14(250)(9.8)=1058 N

Hence, the force in the coupling between the dogs and the sled=1058 N
