Answer:

true! : )

(i underlined the place where the answer is the other information is just as important but if you do not want to read it you do not have to)

Explanation:

Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases. the greater the mass, the greater the gravitational pull. <u>gravitational pull decreases with an increase in the distance between two objects.</u> Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces.

A charge of 50 µC is placed on the y axis at y = 3.0 cm and a 77-µC charge is placed on the x axis at x = 4.0 cm. If both charge

Answer:

The acceleration of an electron is $1.2\times10^{20}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

One Charge = 50 μC

Distance on y axis = 3.0 cm

Second charge = 77 μC

Distance on x axis = 4.0 cm

We need to calculate the force on electron due to q₁

Using formula of force

$F_{1}=\dfrac{kq_{1}q}{r^2}$

Here, q = charge of electron

Put the value into the formula

$F_{1}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times50\times10^{-6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{(3\times10^{-2})^2}$

$F_{1}=8\times10^{-11}j\ \ N$

We need to calculate the force on electron due to q₂

Using formula of force

$F_{2}=\dfrac{kq_{2}q}{r^2}$

Here, q = charge of electron

Put the value into the formula

$F_{2}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times77\times10^{-6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{(4\times10^{-2})^2}$

$F_{2}=6.93\times10^{-11}i\ \ N$

We need to calculate the net force

Using formula of net force

$F=F_{1}+F_{2}$

Put the value into the formula

$F=8\times10^{-11}j+6.93\times10^{-11}i$

The magnitude of the net force

$F=\sqrt{(8\times10^{-11})^2+(6.93\times10^{-11})^2}$

$F=1.058\times10^{-10}\ N$

We need to calculate the acceleration of an electron

Using formula of force

$F = ma$

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{1.058\times10^{-10}}{9.1\times10^{-31}}$

$a=1.2\times10^{20}\ m/s^2$

Hence, The acceleration of an electron is $1.2\times10^{20}\ m/s^2$
