Degrees of loudness and softness in music are called dynamics. I don’t really have an explanation for this, that’s just what they’re called. I know because I’m a violinist and learned it when I first started playing.

Consider a positive charge Q and a point B twice as far away from Q as point A. What is the ratio of the electric field strength

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

$\frac{E_{A}}{E_{B}}=4$

Explanation:

The electric field is defined as the electric force per unit of charge, this is:

$E=\frac{F}{q}$ .

The electric force can be obtained through Coulomb's law, which states that the electric force between to electrically charged particles is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them and directly proportional to the product of their charges. The electric force can be expressed as

$F=\frac{kQq}{r^{2}}$ .

By substitution we get that

$E=\frac{kQq}{qr^{2}}\\\\E=\frac{kQ}{r^{2}}$

Now, letting $E_{A}$ be the electric field at point A, letting $E_{B}$ be the electric field at point B, and letting R be the distance from the charge to A:

$E_{A}=\frac{kQ}{R^{2}}\\\\E_{B}=\frac{kQ}{(2R)^{2}}$ .

The ration of the electric fields is

$\frac{E_{A}}{E_{B}}=\frac{\frac{kQ}{R^{2}}}{\frac{kQ}{(2R)^{2}}}\\\\\frac{E_{A}}{E_{B}}=\frac{\frac{1}{R^{2}}}{\frac{1}{(2R)^{2}}}\\\\\frac{E_{A}}{E_{B}}=\frac{\frac{1}{R^{2}}}{\frac{1}{(4)R^{2}}}\\\\\\\frac{E_{A}}{E_{B}}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{(4)}}\\\\\frac{E_{A}}{E_{B}}=4$

This means that at half the distance, the electric field is four times stronger.
