If the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them increases by a factor 4.
In fact, the magnitude of the electric force between two charges is given by:
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges
We see that the magnitude of the force F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance r. Therefore, if the radius is halved:
the magnitude of the force changes as follows:
so, the force increases by a factor 4.
Answer:We are usually not aware of the electric force acting between two everyday objects because most everyday objects have as many plus charges as minus charges. Option A
Explanation:An electric force is exerted between any two charged objects( either positive or negative). Objects with the same charge will repel each other, and objects with opposite charge will attract each other. The strength of the electric force between any two charged objects depends on the amount of charge that each object contains and on the distance between the two charges. Electric charges are generated all around us due to different surfaces bearing different types of charges. We are usually not aware of it because the quantity of positive charges equals the number of negative charges.
Answer:
0.8712 m/s²
Explanation:
We are given;
Velocity of first car; v1 = 33 m/s
Distance; d = 2.5 km = 2500 m
Acceleration of first car; a1 = 0 m/s² (constant acceleration)
Velocity of second car; v2 = 0 m/s (since the second car starts from rest)
From Newton's equation of motion, we know that;
d = ut + ½at²
Thus,for first car, we have;
d = v1•t + ½(a1)t²
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
d = 33t + 0
d = 33t
For second car, we have;
d = v2•t + ½(a2)•t²
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
d = 0 + ½(a2)t²
d = ½(a2)t²
Since they meet at the next exit, then;
33t = ½(a2)t²
simplifying to get;
33 = ½(a2)t
Now, we also know that;
t = distance/speed = d/v1 = 2500/33
Thus;
33 = ½ × (a2) × (2500/33)
Rearranging, we have;
a2 = (33 × 33 × 2)/2500
a2 = 0.8712 m/s²
the answer is concave lens
