Answer:

65.87 s

Explanation:

For the first time,

Applying

v² = u²+2as.............. Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance

From the question,

Given:  u = 0 m/s (from rest), a = 1.99 m/s², s = 60 m

Substitute these values into equation 1

v² = 0²+2(1.99)(60)

v² = 238.8

v = √238.8

v = 15.45 m/s

Therefore, time taken for the first 60 m is

t = (v-u)/a............ Equation 2

t = (15.45-0)/1.99

t = 7.77 s

For the final 40 meter,

t = (v-u)/a

Given: v = 0 m/s(decelerates), u = 15.45 m/s, a = -0.266 m/s²

Substitute into the equation above

t = (0-15.45)/-0.266

t = 58.1 seconds

Hence total time taken to cover the distance

T = 7.77+58.1

T = 65.87 s

Why must one use a reference point to determine whether or not an object is in motion
GaryK [48]
Because there's no such thing as "really" moving. 
ALL motion is always relative to something.

Here's an example:
You're sitting in a comfy cushy seat, reading a book and listening
to your .mp3 player, and you're getting drowsy.  It's so warm and
comfortable, your eyes are getting so heavy, finally the book slips
out of your hand, falls into your lap, and you are fast asleep.

-- Relative to you, the book is not moving at all.
-- Relative to the seat, you are not moving at all.
-- Relative to the wall and the window, the seat is not moving at all.
-- But your seat is in a passenger airliner.  Relative to people on the
    ground, you are moving past them at almost 500 miles per hour !
-- Relative to the center of the Earth, the people on the ground are moving
   in a circle at more than 700 miles per hour.  
-- Relative to the center of the Sun, the Earth and everything on it are moving
   in a circle at about 66,700 miles per hour ! 

How fast are they REALLY moving ?
There's no such thing.
It all depends on what reference you're using.

Answer:

<em>The new force is 2/3 of the original force</em>

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law </u>

The electrical 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 the first charge is doubled (2q1) and the second charge is one-third of the original charge (q2/3). Now the force is:

\displaystyle F'=k\frac{2q_1*q_2/3}{d^2}

Factoring out 2/3:

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

Substituting the original force:

F'=\frac{2}{3}F

The new force is 2/3 of the original force
