Answer:

A. Acceleration always involves changing speed.

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

Velocity is a vector quantity and is defined as speed in a given direction. Therefore, when any or both of the components of velocity is changing with time, a body is said to be accelerating i.e. acceleration involves a change of speed or change in direction, or a change in both speed and direction.

Considering the statements:

A. Acceleration always involves changing speed is false because acceleration can occur when speed is constant but direction is changing.

B. Changing direction always involves acceleration is true because, a change in direction results in a change in velocity.

C Changing speed always involves acceleration is true because, changing speed results in a change in velocity.

D. Circular motion always involves acceleration is true because in circular motion the direction is always changing, and this results in a change in velocity

Two identical small metal spheres with q1 > 0 and |q1| > |q2| attract each other with a force of magnitude 72.1 mN when se
Brrunno [24]

1) +2.19\mu C

The electrostatic force between two charges is given by

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2} (1)

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the charges

When the two spheres are brought in contact with each other, the charge equally redistribute among the two spheres, such that each sphere will have a charge of

\frac{Q}{2}

where Q is the total charge between the two spheres.

So we can actually rewrite the force as

F=k\frac{(\frac{Q}{2})^2}{r^2}

And since we know that

r = 1.41 m (distance between the spheres)

F= 21.63 mN = 0.02163 N

(the sign is positive since the charges repel each other)

We can solve the equation for Q:

Q=2\sqrt{\frac{Fr^2}{k}}=2\sqrt{\frac{(0.02163)(1.41)^2}{8.98755\cdot 10^9}}}=4.37\cdot 10^{-6} C

So, the final charge on the sphere on the right is

\frac{Q}{2}=\frac{4.37\cdot 10^{-6} C}{2}=2.19\cdot 10^{-6}C=+2.19\mu C

2) q_1 = +6.70 \mu C

Now we know the total charge initially on the two spheres. Moreover, at the beginning we know that

F = -72.1 mN = -0.0721 N (we put a negative sign since the force is attractive, which means that the charges have opposite signs)

r = 1.41 m is the separation between the charges

And also,

q_2 = Q-q_1

So we can rewrite eq.(1) as

F=k \frac{q_1 (Q-q_1)}{r^2}

Solving for q1,

Fr^2=k (q_1 Q-q_1^2})\\kq_1^2 -kQ q_1 +Fr^2 = 0

Since Q=4.37\cdot 10^{-6} C, we can substituting all numbers into the equation:

8.98755\cdot 10^9 q_1^2 -3.93\cdot 10^4 q_1 -0.141 = 0

which gives two solutions:

q_1 = 6.70\cdot 10^{-6} C\\q_2 = -2.34\cdot 10^{-6} C

Which correspond to the values of the two charges. Therefore, the initial charge q1 on the first sphere is

q_1 = +6.70 \mu C
