Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

a

 F =  -1.07 *10^{-8} \  N

b

F_r  =  1.07 *10^{-8} \  N

Explanation:

Generally the force of attraction between this two irons is mathematically represented as

F =  \frac{k *  [Q_{Li}  ] * [Q_{O}  ]  }{ r^2}

Here k is known as the proportionality constant with value k = 2.31  *  10^ {-28} J \cdot m

substituting -2 for Q_{O} i.e the charge on oxygen , +1 for Q_{Li} i.e the charge on Lithium and [0.140 + 0.068 ] nm= 0.208 nm =  0.208*10^{-9} for r

So

F =  \frac{ 2.31  *  10^ {-28}*  +1   * -2   }{ ( 0.208*10^{-9} )^2   }

F =  -1.07 *10^{-8} \  N

Generally the force of repulsion will be the magnitude but different direction to the force o attraction

So Force of repulsionn is

F_r  =  1.07 *10^{-8} \  N

masya89 [10]
<span>One astronomical unit is equal to the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. The answer is letter B. However, the distance between the earth and the sun varies as the earth revolves around the sun. but recent discoveries have proven the exact distance. It is also equal to 149, 597, 870, 700 meters and was defined by the International Astronomical Union. </span>
