What happens to the force between two charges when each charge is doubled and the distance between them is 1/4 its original

Answer:

F' = 64 F

Explanation:

The electric force between charges is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

Where

q₁ and q₂ are charges

r is the distance between charges

When  each charge is doubled and the distance between them is 1/4 its original magnitude such that,

q₁' = 2q₁, q₂' = 2q₂ and r' = (r/4)

New force,

F'=\dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r'^2}

Apply new values,

F'=\dfrac{k\times 2q_1\times 2q_2}{(\dfrac{r}{4})^2}\\\\=\dfrac{k\times 4q_1q_2}{\dfrac{r^2}{16}}\\\\=64\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\=64F

So, the new force becomes 64 times the initial force.

If you wanted to find a sample of fermium, which has an atomic number of 100, where would you look?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Fermium is a synthetic element with the symbol Fm and atomic number 100. It is an actinide and the heaviest element that can be formed by neutron bombardment of lighter elements, and hence the last element that can be prepared in macroscopic quantities, although pure fermium metal has not yet been prepared.[3] A total of 19 isotopes are known, with 257Fm being the longest-lived with a half-life of 100.5 days.

It was discovered in the debris of the first hydrogen bomb explosion in 1952, and named after Enrico Fermi, one of the pioneers of nuclear physics. Its chemistry is typical for the late actinides, with a preponderance of the +3 oxidation state but also an accessible +2 oxidation state. Owing to the small amounts of produced fermium and all of its isotopes having relatively short half-lives, there are currently no uses for it outside basic scientific research.

It's not true.

The crucial principle for a scientific experiment is to keep only ONE variable at a time.

In this case, the variable of this experiment is actually the tomato is in sunny part or in shady part, instead of whether applying Ca fertilizer.

Ber [7]

Answer:

a) motion is PARABOLIC, b) positive particle is accelerated towards the negative plate,  c)  x = 6.19 10⁹ m

Explanation:

This exercise looks at the motion of a positively charged particle in an electric field.

a) Since the field is vertical the acceleration in this direction is

            F = m a

the electric force is

           F = q E

we substitute

          q E = m a

           a = qE / m

the mass of the particle is m = 2.00 10-16 kg

           a = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 2.02 10³ / 2.00 10⁻¹⁶ kg

           a = 1,616 m / s²

           

on the x-axis there are no relationships because there are no forces.

Since the particle has velocities in both axes, its motion is PARABOLIC,

b) the positive particle is accelerated towards the negative plate,

The field is descending, for which the event is down

c) where  hit the particle on the x-axis

they indicate that the particle leaves the center of the negative plate, for which we will fix our reference system at this point.

Let's find the components of the initial velocity.

           sin θ = v_{oy} / v

           cos θ = v₀ₓ / v

           v_{oy} = v₀ sin θ

           v₀ₓ = v₀ cos θ

           v_{oy) = 1.02 10⁵ sin 37 = 0.6139 10⁵ m / s

           v₀ₓ = 1.02 10⁵ cos 37 = 0.8146 10⁵ m / s

Let's find the time it takes to hit the negative plate

            y = y₀I + v_{oy} t + ½ a and t2

in this case the positions are y = y₀ = 0 and the accelerations

a = - 1,616m/s2,

we substitute

            0 = 0 + v_{oy} t - ½ a_y t²

            v_{oy}= ½ a_y t

            t = 2v_{oy} / a_y

let's calculate

           t = 2 0.6139 10⁵ / 1.616

           t = 7.597 10⁴s

in this time the particle travels a horizontal distance

           x = v₀ₓ t

           x = 0.8145 10⁵ 7.597 10⁴

           x = 6.19 10⁹ m

the particle falls off the plate
