Answer:

False

Explanation:

The formula of force that exists between two charges is expressed as;

F = kq1q2/r²

If two charges separated by one meter exert a 9 N force on each other, the;

9 = kq1q2/1²

9 = kq1q2 ..... 1

If the charges are pushed to a 3 meter separation, then;

F =  kq1q2/3²

F =  kq1q2/9 .... 2

Divide both equations;

9/F = (kq1q2)/ kq1q2/9

9/F =  kq1q2 * 9/ kq1q2

9/F = 9

F = 9/9

F = 1N

Hence if the charges are pushed to a 3 meter separation, then the force on EACH charge will be 1N. Hence the answer is False

A train travelling at 20 m/s has 2 000 000 J of kinetic energy. What is the mass of<br> the train?
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

<h2>10,000 kg</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of the train can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{2k}{ {v}^{2} }  \\

k is the kinetic energy

v is the velocity

From the question we have

m \frac{2(2000000)}{ {20}^{2} }  =  \frac{4000000}{400}  =  \frac{40000}{4}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>10,000 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you
