maximum static friction acting on the object will be
plug in all values
So here it means that if applied force is less than or equal to 58.8 N then the object will remain stationary as friction can balance the external force upto this limit of external force
So here it is given that applied force is 20 N
so here object will not move due to this force and it will remain at rest always
due to this applied force
Answer:
Approximately , assuming that the volume of these two charged objects is negligible.
Explanation:
Assume that the dimensions of these two charged objects is much smaller than the distance between them. Hence, Coulomb's Law would give a good estimate of the electrostatic force between these two objects regardless of their exact shapes.
Let and
denote the magnitude of two point charges (where the volume of both charged object is negligible.) In this question,
and
.
Let denote the distance between these two point charges. In this question,
.
Let denote the Coulomb constant. In standard units,
.
By Coulomb's Law, the magnitude of electrostatic force (electric force) between these two point charges would be:
.
Substitute in the values and evaluate:
.
