Answer:

The  repulsive electrostatic force between two of the protons is 14.4 N.

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two protons, r = 4 x 10⁻¹⁵ m

charge of a proton, q = + 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

The repulsive electrostatic force between two of the protons is calculated by applying Coulomb's law;

F = \frac{k q_1 q_2 }{r^2} \\\\where;\\k \ is \ Coulomb's \ constant = 9\times 10^9 \ Nm^2/C^2 \\\\F = \frac{9\times 10^9 \  (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{(4 \times 10^{-15})^2} \\\\F = 14.4 \ N

Therefore, the  repulsive electrostatic force between two of the protons is 14.4 N.

A 1.15 kg book is at rest on the table. What is the magnitude of the normal force that the table is exerting on the book?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

11.27N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the book  = 1.15kg

Unknown:

Magnitude of the normal force  = ?

Solution:

The normal force is the vertical force exerted by a body on an object.

It can be described as the weight of an object.

 Normal force  = mass x acceleration due to gravity

 Normal force  = 1.15 x 9.8  = 11.27N

Calculate the potential energy at the top of the giant drop if the car weights 1000 kg
bonufazy [111]
The gravitional potential energy, relative to the bottom of the giant drop, in joules, is (9800) times (the height of the drop in meters). That's the PE of the empty car only, not counting any hapless screaming souls who may be trapped in it at that moment.

What’s the difference between gravitational force & gravitational field strength?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Gravitational field strength is the force experienced by a unit mass. Gravitational force is the amount of force acting on a body. It is the product of field strength times the mass under consideration. Gravitational pull is just a more colloquial name for gravitational force.

How to find volume of a cuboid in cm3
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

<em>we</em><em> </em><em>have</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>use</em><em> </em><em>formula</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>volume</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>find</em><em> </em><em>volume</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>cuboid</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>i.e</em><em> </em><em>v</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>l</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em>b</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em>h</em><em>)</em>

Explanation:

here, let your length of cuboid be x cm, breadth be y cm and height be z cm .

now, formula to find volume of cuboid = length ×

breadth × height.

so, v( volume)= l (length)× b (breadth)× h (height)

or, v= x cm × y cm × z cm

therefore, volume is xyz cm^3..... answer.
