The charge on each particles which are 1 m apart and feeling a repulsive force of 1 N is 1.05×10¯⁵ C

<h3>Assumption </h3>

Let the charge on each particles be q

<h3>How to determine the charge </h3>

Final force (F) = 1 N
Distance apart (r) = 1 m
Electrical constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Charge on 1st particle (q₁) = q =?
Charge on 2nd particle (q₂) = q =?

The charge on each particle can be obtained by using the Coulomb's law equation as shown below:

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

F = Kq² / r²

1 = (9×10⁹ × q²) / 1²

1 = 9×10⁹ × q²

Divide both side by 9×10⁹

q² = 1 / 9×10⁹

Take the square root of both side

q = √(1 / 9×10⁹)

q = 1.05×10¯⁵ C

What figure represents a longitudinal figure

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The wavelength can always be determined by measuring the distance between any two corresponding points on adjacent waves. In the case of a longitudinal wave, a wavelength measurement is made by measuring the distance from a compression to the next compression or from a rarefaction to the next rarefaction.

A stationary 15 kg object is located in a table near the surface of the earth. The coefficient of static friction between the su

madreJ [45]

maximum static friction acting on the object will be

$F_s = \mu_s mg$

plug in all values

$F_s = 0.40 \times 15 \times 9.8 = 58.8 N$

So here it means that if applied force is less than or equal to 58.8 N then the object will remain stationary as friction can balance the external force upto this limit of external force

So here it is given that applied force is 20 N

so here object will not move due to this force and it will remain at rest always

due to this applied force

It is essential to behave appropriately on social media and be _______ when you post anything.

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

I would say be Mindful.

Explanation:

There could be like a MILLION answers for this. I think that you should personally go with your gut. That would be the best option. I think it's mindful because you really do have to be mindful when you post. Like not posting too much, not posting stuff you're uncomfortable with, not posting when on vacation, etc. So, I think you should be mindful.
