The resultant force on the animal = Resultant mass * total acceleration
F = 0.2 * 2.5 to the right
F = 0.5 to the right.
As, girl exerting a force of 3.5 N & it's not mentioned that she is in right or left, so the force exerting by boy would be either:
3.5-0.5 = 3 OR 3.5+0.5 = 4
If boy exerting a greater force then, answer will be 4 N & if girl exerting a greater force the, answer will be 3 N
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The distance of separation is decreased
Explanation:
From Cuolomb's law, we know that the strength of charge is inversely proportional to the distance of separation between the charges. To mean that increasing the distance let's say from 2m to 3 m would mean initial strength getting form 1/4 to 1/9 which is a decrease. The vice versa is true hence the force of repulsion can increase only when we decrease the distance of separation.
The first scientist to introduce the concept of inertia was Galileo
