How will the electrostatic force between two electric charges change if one charge is doubled and the second charge is tripled?

Physics

rewona [7]3 years ago

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

While Bob is demonstrating the gravitational force on falling objects to his class, he drops an 1.0 lb bag of feathers from the
____ [38]

As per the question Bob drops the bag full with feathers from the top of the building.

The mass of the bag(m)= 1.0 lb

Let the air resistance is neglected.As the bag is under free fall ,hence the only force that acts on the bag is the force of gravity which is in vertical downward direction.

Here the acceleration produced on bag due to the free fall will be nothing else except the acceleration due to gravity i.e g =9.8 m/s^2


Here we are asked to calculate the distance travelled by the bag at the instant 1.5 s

Hence time t= 1.5 s

From equation of kinematics we know that -

                S=ut + 0.5at^2     [ here S is the distance travelled]

For motion under free fall initial velocity (u)=0.

Hence   S= 0×1.5+{0.5×(-9.8)×(1.5)^2}

           ⇒ -S =0-11.025 m

            ⇒ S= 11.025 m

                   =11 m

Here the negative sign is taken only due to the vertical downward motion of the body .we may take is positive depending on our frame of reference .


Hence the correct option is B.

Jimmy walks 3 miles east then 1 mile west. What is the distance Jimmy traveled?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

2 miles

Explanation:

Jimmy walked forward 3 miles east (to the right)

Then, he backtracked and walked 1 mile west (to the left)

This can be written as:

3 - 1 = ?

3 - 1 = 2

Therefore, Jimmy traveled a total of 2 miles.
