What factors affect the strength of the electric force between two objects

1 answer:

5 0

There are three factors:

The charge of the two objects. The electric force is proporcional to the product of the charges of both objects.

The distance that separetes them. The electric force is proportional to the inverse of the squared distance that separates the objects.

The media. The electric force constant of proportionality depends on the media: air, water, oil, glass.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer: 12 N to the right

Explanation:

If we calculate the net force acting on the box, we will have:

<u>In y-component:</u>

$Fy_{net}=F_{n}+F_{g}$ (1)

Where $F_{n}=12 N$ is the Normal force, directed upwards and $F_{g}=-12 N$ is the weight of the box (gravity force), directed downwards.

$Fy_{net}=12 N-12 N$ (2)

$Fy_{net}=0 N$ (3) Hence the net force in the vertical component is zero

<u>In x-component:</u>

$Fx_{net}=F_{left}+F_{right}$ (4)

Where $F_{left}=-3 N$ and $F_{right}= 15 N$

$Fx_{net}=-3 N + 15 N$ (5)

$Fx_{net}=12 N$ (6) This is the net force in the horizontal component

Therefore, the total net force acting on the box is 12 N directed to the right

A student decides to spend spring break by driving 50 miles due east, then 50 miles 30 degrees south of east, then 50 miles 30 d

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

a. 600 ml, 12

Explanation:

The movement described in the question exhibits that of a polygon. Exhibiting a constant distance and angle with only varying direction until the starting point is reached.

The sum of exterior angles of a polygon = 360 degrees.

Exterior angle of a polygon = (360 ÷ number of sides)

Therefore,

Number of sides = 360 ÷ exterior angle

Exterior angle = 30 degrees

Hence,

Number of sides = 360 ÷ 30 = 12 sides

Since distance traveled of 50 miles is the same for each displacement ;

Total displacement = distance traveled * number of sides

Total displacement = 50 * 12 = 600 miles.

A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcycle

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

a) $\Delta{t} = 5.39s$

b) the motorcycle travels 155 m

Explanation:

Let $t_2-t_1 = \Delta{t}$ , then consider the equation of motion for the motorcycle (accelerated) and for the car (non accelerated):

$v_{m2}=v_0+a\Delta{t}\\x+d=(\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2} )\Delta{t}\\v_c = v_0 = \frac{x}{\Delta{t}}$

where:

$v_{m2}$ is the speed of the motorcycle at time 2

$v_{c}$ is the velocity of the car (constant)

$v_{0}$ is the velocity of the car and the motorcycle at time 1

d is the distance between the car and the motorcycle at time 1

x is the distance traveled by the car between time 1 and time 2

Solving the system of equations:

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}car&motorcycle\\x=v_0\Delta{t}&x+d=(\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2}}) \Delta{t}\end{array}\right]$

$v_0\Delta{t}=\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2}\Delta{t}-d \\\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2}\Delta{t}-v_0\Delta{t}=d\\(v_0+v_{m2})\Delta{t}-2v_0\Delta{t}=2d\\(v_0+v_0+a\Delta{t})\Delta{t}-2v_0\Delta{t}=2d\\(2v_0+a\Delta{t})\Delta{t}-2v_0\Delta{t}=2d\\a\Delta{t}^2=2d\\\Delta{t}=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2*58}{4}}=\sqrt{29}=5.385s$

For the second part, we need to calculate x+d, so you can use the equation of the car to calculate x:

$x = v_0\Delta{t}= 18\sqrt{29}=96.933m\\then:\\x+d = 154.933$

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

vi = 0

a = 9.81

d = 4.50 m

vf = ?

Formula

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2 * a * d

Solution

Substitute the knowns into the formula

vf^2 =0 + 2 * 9.81 * 4.50

vf^2 = 88.29 Take the square root of both sides.

sqrt(vf^2) = sqrt(88.29)

vf = 9.40 m/s
