Two electric charges A and B were placed facing each other at a distance of separation "r". The common electrostatic force betwe

en them is 4N. What will the magnitude of this force become if the distance of separation were to double between them?

Answer:

From the formula of force:

F =  \frac{kAB}{ {r}^{2} }  \\

since AB and k are constants:

F \:  \alpha  \:  \frac{1}{ {r}^{2} }  \\  \\ F =  \frac{x}{ {r}^{2} }

x is a constant of proportionality

• when force is 4N, separation distance is 1

4 =  \frac{x}{1}  \\ x = 4

therefore, equation becomes

F =  \frac{4}{ {r}^{2} }  \\

when r is doubled, r becomes 2. find F:

F =  \frac{4}{ {2}^{2} }  \\  \\ F =  \frac{4}{4}  \\  \\ { \underline{force \: is \: 1N}}

Energy is released during the fission of pu-239 atoms as a result of the
pav-90 [236]
<h2>Answer: process of converting matter into energy</h2><h2></h2>

Nuclear fission consists of dividing a heavy nucleus into two or more lighter or smaller nuclei, by means of the bombardment with neutrons to make it unstable. In this process that takes place in the atomic nucleus, neutrons, gamma rays and <u>large amounts of energy are emitted.  </u>

Then, with this division a great release of energy occurs and the emission of two or three neutrons, other particles and gamma rays.  

This means fission is a process in which energy is released by  the separation of the components of the nucleous of the atom.

In other words:

<h2>Matter is converted to energy .</h2>

When is the pressure of the man on the ground more – lying position or standing
Wittaler [7]

Hi,

<u>The man on the ground in standing position has more pressure</u>. This is because when he stands, only his legs are in contact with the ground. While lying, his body is more in contact with the ground, therefore, he exerts less pressure.

To the point, a man standing position on the ground had more pressure.

More is the area of contact, less is the pressure efforted.

Thank you...

Waves are observed passing under a dock. Wave crests are 8.0 meters apart. The time for a complete wave to pass by is 4.0 second
ki77a [65]
To answer that question, we don't care what the highest and lowest
levels of the wave are, or how far apart they are.  We only need to be
able to identify the highest point on the wave, and keep track of how
often those pass by us.

You said it takes 4 seconds for a complete wave to pass by.
Through the sheer power of intellect, I'm able to take that information
and calculate that  1/4  of the wave passes by in 1 second.

There's your frequency . . .  1/4 per second, or  0.25 Hz.
