Answer:

The electrostatic force that will result if both charges are doubled and the distance remains the same is 6.0 * 10⁻⁶ N

Explanation:

Coulomb's law of  electricity states that the magnitude of the force of attraction or repulsion between two charges is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance of of separation between them.

In formula; F = KQ₁Q₂/d²

Using the formula for electrostatic force of attraction above to determine the force of between the two charged spheres

Let the charges be Q₁ and Q₂; distance of separation be d, K is a constant

Initially, F₁ = KQ₁Q₂/d² ---- (1)

F₁ = 3.0 * 10⁻⁶ N

when the charges are doubled, Q₁ = 2Q₁; Q₂ = 2Q₂; K and d remains constant

F₂ = 2KQ₁Q₂/d² ----(2)

Dividing equation (2) by (1) to find the ratio of their forces

F₂/F₁ = (2KQ₁Q₂/d²) / KQ₁Q₂/d²

F₂/F₁ = 2

Thus, F₂ is twice F₁.

Since F₁ = 3.0 * 10⁻⁶ N; F₂ = 2 * 3.0 * 10⁻⁶ N

F₂ = 6.0 * 10⁻⁶ N

Therefore, the electrostatic force that will result if both charges are doubled and the distance remains the same is 6.0 * 10⁻⁶ N

What is a passing mechanic cues to remember when you are the receiver of a pass in hockey?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Positions in Hockey: 6 players for each team on the ice

1 Goalie – the player in the goal who tries to stop the puck from going in the net.

1 Center – plays in between the two wings and is usually the best passer on the team

2 Wings – offensive players who plays on both sides of the center. They are usually goal scorers

2 Defensemen – main job is to play defense and help defend the goal

Passing Cues

1. Stick blade faces target

2. Puck in center of blade

3. Transfer weight rear to front as you pass

4. Use wrist movement to drive the puck

5. Follow through at target

Receiving Cues:

1. athletic position

2. catch puck with middle of blade and control

3. slow the puck when it contacts the stick by giving with it

1hp is written in electric motor what does it mean​
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Explanation:

The horsepower (hp) is a unit in the foot-pound-second ( fps ) or English system, sometimes used to express the rate at which mechanical energy is expended. It was originally defined as 550 foot-pounds per second (ft-lb/s). A power level of 1 hp is approximately equivalent to 746 watt s (W) or 0.746 kilowatt s (kW).

Masteriza [31]

Answer: D. It is a SUSPENSION

Explanation:

SUSPENSION

This is a combination of two or more single substances. The properties of the components involved are not however changed or lost as is the case with compounds.

For this reason this mixture can be separated due to sedimentation or filtering.

After a few days, this occurs in the aqueous nickel sulfide because the solid nickel sulfide is separating from the water.
