FALSE!

Nonmetals include common gasses that are found in the atmosphere, such as nitrogen and oxygen, as well as sulfur (S) and carbon too. Nonmetals are usually not good conductors of heat and electricity.

Two identical charges q placed 2.0 mapart exert forces of magnitude 4.0 N on each other What is the value of the charge q? a) q

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

c) $4.2*10^{-5}C$

Explanation:

Coulomb's law says that the force exerted between two charges is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them, and is given by the expression:

$F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}$

where k is a proportionality constant with the value $k=9*10^{9}\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}$

In this case $q_{1}=q_{2}=q$ , so we have:

$F=\frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}$

Solving the equation for q, we have:

$kq^{2}=Fr^{2}$

$q^{2}=\frac{Fr^{2}}{k}$

$q=\sqrt{\frac{Fr^{2}}{k}}$

Replacing the given values:

$q=\sqrt{\frac{4.0N*(2.0m)^{2}}{9*10^{-9}\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}}}$

$q=4.2*10^{-5}C$
