As a laudably skeptical physics student, you want to test Coulomb's law. For this purpose, you set up a measurement in which a p

roton and an electron are situated 933 933 nm from each other and you study the forces that the particles exert on each other. As expected, the predictions of Coulomb's law are well confirmed.

Explanation:

The Coulomb's law states that the magnitude of each of the electric forces between two point-at-rest charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them:

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

In this case we have an electron (-e) and a proton (e), so:

F=-\frac{ke^2}{d^2}\\F=-\frac{8.99*10^9\frac{N\cdot m^2}{s^2}(1.6*10^{-19}C)^2}{(933*10^{-9}m)^2}\\F=-2.64*10^{-16}N

In this case, the electric force is negative, therefore, the force is repulsive and its magnitude is:

F=2.64*10^{-16}N

On a sunny summer day, why does a white car with a light-colored interior stay cooler than a black car with a dark-colored inter
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: Solar radiation reflects off the lighter colours, away from the car, thus keeping the car cool

Explanation: This is because lighter colors reflect a good amount of radiation while darker colors absorb it. Just like, Antarctica hasn't completely melted because it reflects a lot of the heat that is acting upon it. Or, you notice that you get hotter when you wear a black shirt opposed to a white one.

vivado [14]

Answer:

10

Explanation:

This is tough. The last number  0.2 has only one significant figure. So while the sum of all the numbers is 12.3, you must only leave one sig figure. Rounding to the tenths gives 10.

Which formula correctly expresses the property density?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Option A

D = m/v

Explanation:

Density is defined as mass per unit volume of an object. Therefore, D=m/v where m is the mass of the object and v is the volume

Therefore, option A is the right option
