The force of attraction between 2 charged spheres can be explained by Coulomb's law,
It states the force of attraction is directly proportional to the magnitudes of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

/F =  \frac{k q_{1}  q_{2} }{ r^{2} }
where F - force of attraction/repulsion
q₁ and q₂ - charges of the 2 spheres 
k - Coulomb's law constant
r - distance between the spheres

In the question given, the charges of the spheres remain constant in both instances, only distance changes. Therefore (kq₁q₂) = c which is a constant 
then F = c / r²
first instance 
6 x 10⁻⁹ N = c/ (20 cm)² ---1)
F = c/(10 cm)² --- 2)
2) / 1)
\frac{F}{6* 10^{-9} } =  \frac{400}{100}
F = 6 x 10⁻⁹ x 4
F = 2.4 x 10⁻⁸ N

How do particles move differently in transverse waves and in surface water waves?
elixir [45]
The particles always move parallel and perpendicular to the waves. The waves which are in the water moves a circle. Both up and down and back and forth.

Good luck :)

You decide to roll a 0.11-kgkg ball across the floor so slowly that it will have a small momentum and a large de Broglie wavelen
Oksanka [162]

The de Broglie wavelength \lambda = 4.0\times 10^{-30}m

We know that

de Broglie wavelength = \lambda = \frac{h}{mv}\lambda = \frac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{0.11\times 1.5 \times 10 ^{-3}}

\lambda = 4.0\times 10^{-30}m

<h3>What is de Broglie wavelength?</h3>

According to the de Broglie equation, matter can behave like waves, much like how light and radiation do, which are both waves and particles. A beam of electrons can be diffracted just like a beam of light, according to the equation. The de Broglie equation essentially clarifies the notion of matter having a wavelength.

Therefore, whether a particle is tiny or macroscopic, it will have a wavelength when examined.

The wave nature of matter can be seen or observed in the case of macroscopic objects.
