Answer:

Option E

Explanation:

In the presence of two point charges at the two vertices of an equilateral triangle, the resultant electric field at the third vertex due to these charges can not be zero whether the charges are identical or not.

The reason being that only of the x or y component of the field can be cancelled out in either case still the total field can't be reduced to zero.

This can only be achieved if another charge is present.

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

The internal energy (kinetic energy) of the milk particles increases thus warming the milk up, while the internal energy of the coffee particles reduce their initial average speed as they are imparting energy to the slow milk particles.

How much equal charge should be placed on the earth and the moon so that the electrical repulsion balances the gravitational for
kumpel [21]

As we know that electrostatic force between two charges is given as

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

here we know that electrostatic repulsion force is balanced by the gravitational force between them

so here force of attraction due to gravitation is given as

F_g = 1.98 \times 10^{20} N

here we can assume that both will have equal charge of magnitude "q"

now we have

1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{kq^2}{r^2}

1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(q^2)}{(3.84 \times 10^8)^2}

1.98 \times 10^{20} = (6.10 \times 10^{-8}) q^2

now we have

q = 5.7 \times 10^{13} C
