Answer:
<h3>1/16</h3>
Explanation:
According to the coulombs law, the force existing vetween the ions is expressed as;
F = kQq/r² .... 1
Q and q are the ions
r is the distance between the ions
If the distance between the ion is quadrupled, then;
F2 = kQq/(4r)²
F2 = kQq/16r² ... 2
Divide equation 2 by 1;
F2/F = kQq/16r² ÷ kQq/r²
F2/F = kQq/16r² × r²/kQq
F2/F = 1/16
F2 = 1/16 F
Therefore the coulombic force between two ions is reduced to<u> 1/16 </u>of its original strength when the distance between them is quadrupled.
The best method to use in prevention of self-demagnetization of a permanent magnet is by use of a keeper. Keepers were also commonly known as amateurs. They help in storing magnets safely, especially those that have low coercivity ( magnets that are extremely susceptible to stray fields).

Sorry I didn't see this before...
Okay, I see two major problems with this student's experiment:
1) Nitric acid Won't Dissolve in Methane
Nitric acid is what's called a mineral acid. That means it is inorganic (it doesn't contain carbon) and dissolves in water.
Methane is an organic molecule (it contains carbon). It literally cannot dissolve nitric acid. Here's why:
For nitric acid (HNO3) to dissolve into a solvent, that solvent must be polar. It must have a charge to pull the positively charged Hydrogen off of the Oxygen. Methane has no charge, since its carbon and hydrogens have nearly perfect covalent bonds. Thus it cannot dissolve nitric acid. There will be no solution. That leads to the next problem:
2) He's Not actually Measuring a Solution
He's picking up the pH of the pure nitric acid. Since it didn't dissolve, what's left isn't a solution—it's like mixing oil and water. He has groups of methane and groups of nitric acid. Since methane is perfectly neutral (neither acid nor base), the electronic instrument is only picking up the extremely acidic nitric acid. There's no point to what he's doing.
Does that help?
<span>Before answering the questions I will list the three main laws of motion. The first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion in a straight line at a constant speed unless another force acts upon it. The second law of motion states that how fast an object picks up speed or slows down depends on the amount of force used and on its mass. The third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
#1) When a propagule falls into the water, it displaces some water, which causes a small splash.
Answer: For this case it would be C) The Third Law of Motion.
#2) A heavier propagule will fall faster and hit the water with more force, causing a bigger splash.
Answer: For this case it would be B) The Second Law of Motion.
#3) The drifting propagule tends to stay in motion. It will only get stuck in the mud and start to take root when it is really time to germinate.
Answer: For this case it would be C) The Third Law of Motion.
#4) When a propagule is ready to fall off of the parent tree, it must overcome the inertia that keeps it in place.
Answer: For this case it would be A) The First Law of Motion.
#5) Occasionally, another branch or leaf will rub against a seedling due to wind or water action, and cause it to fall prematurely.
Answer: For this case it would be C) The Third Law of Motion.
#6) A seedling falling into the water does so with more force than a leaf, since it has more mass.
Answer: For this case it would be B) The Second Law of Motion.
#7) As a seedling's roots begin to grow into the mud, they displace the soil particles, which are moved aside to make room for the new tree.
Answer: For this case it would be D) Friction.
#8) Manatees are large marine mammals that live in the mangroves. To scratch their itchy backs, they like to rub against the roots of the mangroves.
Answer: For this case it would be D) Friction.
