Electrostatic forces between charges depend on the product of
the sizes of the charges, and the distance between them.
We should also mention the item about whether the charges are
both the same sign or opposite signs. That determines whether
the forces will pull them together or push them apart, which is a
pretty significant item.
Answer:
Part a)
Part b)
Part c)
Explanation:
Part a)
As we know that the friction force on two boxes is given as
Now we know by Newton's II law
so we have
Part b)
For block B we know that net force on it will push it forward with same acceleration so we have
Part c)
If Alex push from other side then also the acceleration will be same
So for box B we can say that Net force is given as
The answer is X. I hope this helped
