Answer:

<h3>1/16</h3>

Explanation:

According to the coulombs law, the force existing vetween the ions is expressed as;

F = kQq/r² .... 1

Q and q are the ions

r is the distance between the ions

If the distance between the ion is quadrupled, then;

F2 =  kQq/(4r)²

F2 =  kQq/16r² ... 2

Divide equation 2 by 1;

F2/F = kQq/16r² ÷ kQq/r²

F2/F = kQq/16r² × r²/kQq

F2/F = 1/16

F2 = 1/16 F

Therefore the coulombic force between two ions is reduced to<u> 1/16 </u>of its original strength when the distance between them is quadrupled.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

By a factor of 3

Explanation:

In the photon energy formula , frequency and the energy content have a direct relationship. This means anything that is done to one of the parameters is the same that will be done to the other to have a balance.

In this equation: Energy=plank’s constant * frequency.

Energy is directly proportional to frequency.

You and a highway patrolman are driving at constant speeds in opposite directions on a straight highway. The patrolman is drivin
kompoz [17]

Answer:  75 mph

Explanation:

The Relative Speed for a mobile is equal to the diference between the object and the observer:

Relative Speed (Rs) = Object's Velocity  - Observer's Velocity

Thinking on those terms, we would need to have a universal observer to do any understandable measurement on daily basics. This is why we all use earth as a Static Observer for every measurement we do everyday.

Using Earth as an observer, the Velocity for the Patrolman is:

Patrolman Velocity (Vp) = 60 mph

Because the radar gun does measure the Relative Speed for the object, which is 135 mph, we need to work with the equation to find the Velocity using Earth as a reference.

Object's Relative Velocity = Object's Velocity - Patrolman's Velocity

Object's Velocity = Object's Relative Velocity + Patrolman's Velocity

We need to keep in mind, the Patrolman is going on the opposite direction. Because of this the sign for his velocity should be negative.

Object's Velocity = 135 mph + ( -60 mph)

Object's Velocity = 135 mph - 60 mph

Object's Velocity = 75 mph

What is the mass of an object that creates 33,750 joules of energy by traveling at 30 m/sec?
nikklg [1K]
The Energy is Kinetic Energy.

Kinetic Energy = 1/2*mv²,  Where m is mass in kg, v is velocity in m/s

Energy is 33750 Juoles,  v = 30m/s

1/2*mv² = E

1/2*m*30² = 33750

m = (2*33750) / (30²)     Using a calculator

m = 75 kg

Mass of object is 75 kg.

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

2m 13\frac{1}{3}s

Explanation:

1.5m = 1s

200m = \frac{200}{1.5} × 1s

          = 133\frac{1}{3}s

          = 2m 13\frac{1}{3}s
