Coulombs law says that the force between any two charges depends on the amount of charges and distance between them. This force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the two charges and inversely proportional to the distance between them.

$F=k\frac{|q_1| |q_2|}{r^2}$

where $q_1\hspace{1mm}and\hspace{1mm}q_2$ are charges, $r$ is the distance between them and k is the coulomb constant.

case 1:

$q_1=-e\\ q_2=+3e\\ r=100pm\\ \Rightarrow F=k\frac{|-e||3e|}{(100pm)^2}=3ke^2\times10^8$

case 2

$q_1=-e\\ q_2=+2e\\ r=100pm\\ \Rightarrow F=k\frac{|-e||2e|}{(100pm)^2}=2ke^2\times10^8$

case 3:

$q_1=-e\\ q_2=+e\\ r=100pm\\ \Rightarrow F=k\frac{|-e||e|}{(200pm)^2}=0.25ke^2\times10^8$

Comparing the 3 cases:

The maximum potential force according to coulombs law is between -1 charge and +3 charge separated by a distance of 100 pm.

A car travels along a clear 10.0 km section of motorway in 6.0 minutes. It then drives through 3.0 km of roadwork in 3.0 minutes

Charra [1.4K]

6min=1/10h=0.1h
3min=1/20h=0.05h

$\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow Avg\:Speed=\dfrac{Total\:Displacement}{Total\:Time}$

$\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow Avg\:Speed=\dfrac{10+3}{0.1+0.05}$

$\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow Avg\:Speed=\dfrac{13}{0.15}$

$\\ \bull\tt\dashrightarrow Avg\:Speed=86.6km/h$
