Answer:

the forces between the two charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them

Answer:

The force becomes 4 times as much when the distance is halved.

Explanation:

F1 = k*q1 * q2/r^2 = kq^2/r^2

F2 = kq^2/1 / (r/2)^2

Set up a proportion using F1/F2 as you reference.

Notice that you don't know any number that can be used in this equation. However k q^2 does not change as you move the two charges closer together. That being so, you can still show what happens to F1 and F2.

F1/F2 = 1/r^2 // 1/(r^2/4)

Take the denominator, invert the fraction and multiply. That creates another cancellation.

F1/F2 = 1/r^2 * r^2 /4 1

F1/F2 = r^2 // r^2/4 which allows you to cancel r^2

F1/F2 = 1/4 Now you need to interpret F1 and F2. Cross Multiply

4F1 = F2

Does a dog like me? Is scientific or nonscientific

Basile [38]

Answer:

Non scientific.

Explanation:

Whether or not a dog likes you cannot be truly proven, and is more of a subjective query. A dog cannot really like or dislike a person. They can trust or not, they can be loyal or not, dominating or not, and such things, but “like” is an extremely opinionated term.

Which diagrams shows reaction pathway that absorbs energy?

postnew [5]

Question:

<em>The diagram shows the potential energy changes for a reaction pathway.</em>

Part 1: Does the diagram illustrate an endothermic or an exothermic reaction? Give reasons in support of your answer.

Part 2: Describe how you can determine the total change in enthalpy and activation energy from the diagram and if each is positive or negative.

Answer:

Part 1: The diagram illustrates an endothermic reaction as the products has a higher potential energy than the reactants do. There is a positive slope of the diagram and there is enough energy to meet the activation energy requirement.

Part 2: You can determine the total change in enthalpy and activation energy from the diagram by the potential energy of the reactants. If the reactants have a high potential energy, then the enthalpy is also high, and if the reactants have a low potential energy, then the enthalpy is low. You can determine if the diagram is positive or negative by knowing if its an endothermic or exothermic reaction. An endothermic reaction is positive because the products are higher than the reactants and a exothermic reaction is negative because the reactants are higher than the products.

What gives sperms motility

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The tail of the sperm, the flagellum

Explanation:

We find cilia in the human body. They coat the epithelial cells of the upper respiratory tract and play a role in keeping dust particles, smog, and potentially harmful microorganisms from entering the lungs.

Their movements enable the movement of mucus or other substances across the surface of various epithelial cells. The cilia also cover parts of the male and female reproductive tract.

Flagella are found in sperm, whose tail represents the flagellum in its structure. The body wall of the sponge, among others, contains cells with whips that create and maintain the flow of water through the body.
