What happens to the electrostatic force between two charged particles if the distance between them is doubled?

Stells [14]

According to Coulomb's Law , The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. So ,if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the electrostatic force will become weak by one fourth of the original force.

Two stones are launched from the top of a tall building. One stoneis thrown in a direction 30.0^\circ above the horizontal with

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Part A)

t(1) > t(2), the stone thrown 30 above the horizontal spends more time in the air.

Part B)

x(f1) > x(f2), the first stone will land farther away from the building.

Explanation:

Part A)

Let's use the parabolic motion equation to solve it. Let's define the variables:

y(i) is the initial height, it is a constant.
y(f) is the final height, in our case is 0
v(i) is the initial velocity (v(i)=16 m/s)
θ1 is the first angle, 30°
θ2 is the first angle, -30°

For the first stone

$y_{f1}=y_{i1}+v*sin(\theta_{1})t_{1}-0.5gt_{1}^{2}$

$0=y_{i1}+16*sin(30)t_{1}-0.5*9.81*t_{1}^{2}$

$0=y_{i1}+8t_{1}-4.905*t_{1}^{2}$ (1)

For the second stone

$0=y_{i2}+16*sin(-30)t_{2}-4.905t_{2}^{2}$

$0=y_{i2}-8t_{2}-4.905t_{2}^{2}$ (2)

If we solve the equation (1) we will have:

$t_{1}=\frac{-8\pm \sqrt{64+19.62*y_{i}}}{-9.81}$

We can do the same procedure for the equation (2)

$t_{1}=\frac{8\pm \sqrt{64+19.62*y_{i}}}{-9.81}$

We can analyze each solution to see which one spends more time in the air.

It is easy to see that the value inside the square root of each equation is always greater than 8, assuming that the height of the building is > 0. Now, to get positive values of t(1) and t(2) we need to take the negative option of the square root.

Therefore, t(1) > t(2), it means that the stone thrown 30 above the horizontal spends more time in the air.

Part B)

We can use the equation of the horizontal position here.

First stone

$x_{f1}=x_{i1}+vcos(30)t_{1}$

$x_{f1}=0+13.86*t_{1}$

$x_{f1}=13.86*t_{1}$

Second stone

$x_{2}=x_{i2}+vcos(-30)t_{2}$

$x_{1}=0+13.86*t_{1}$

$x_{1}=13.86*t_{2}$

Knowing that t(1) > t(2) then x(f1) > x(f2)

Therefore, the first stone will land farther away from the building.

They land at different points at different times.

I hope it helps you!

Equation of motion description is v=20+2t.How big is the initial speed,acceleration?

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

the initial velocity is 20 m/s and the acceleration is 2 m/s²

Explanation:

Given equation of motion, v = 20 + 2t

If V represents the final velocity of the object, then the initial velocity and acceleration of the object is calculated as follows;

From first kinematic equation;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is time of motion

If we compare (v = u + at) to (v = 20 + 2t)

then, u = 20 and

a = 2

Therefore, the initial velocity is 20 m/s and the acceleration is 2 m/s²

Metals are used in many products because of the characteristic properties that most metals share. Which properties of the metal

Anastaziya [24]

The most important characteristics that are exhibited by metals are-

1- Metals are ductile

2-Most metals are conductive in nature.

3-Most metals are malleable.

4- Metals have strong inter molecular force of attraction between the.

5-Metals have luster.

6-Metals are sonorous.

Here we are given Tungsten filament.

Tungsten is a metal.So it must be conductive and as well as ductile in nature.

The electric filament that we are using in our electric bulb glows due to the heating effect of current.Hence the chosen substances for glowing electric bulb must have high melting point.

The melting point of tungsten is 1650 degree celsius which is very high.That's why it is used in electric bulb.

Hence the correct answer to the question is the third one i.e Tungsten is ductile,has a high melting point, and is electrically conductive.
