After a student shoves a book across a flat table, it begins to slow down. Why?

Physics
1 answer:
Dovator [93]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

  • <u>The force of friction opposes the motion of an object, causing moving objects to lose energy and slow down. When objects move through a fluid, such as air or water, the fluid exerts a frictional force on the moving object. The frictional force from a fluid is called a drag force.</u>

By what factor will the Electrostatic Force between two charged objects change when the amount of charge on both objects doubles
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

F' = (4/9)F

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged objects is given by Coulomb's Law:

F = kq₁q₂/r²   -------------------- equation (1)

where,

F = Electrostatic Force

k = Coulomb's Constant

q₁ = magnitude of first charge

q₂ = magnitude of second charge

r = distance between charges

Now, when the charges and distance altered as follows:

q₁' = 2q₁

q₂' = 2q₂

r' = 3r

Then,

F' = kq₁'q₂'/r'²

F' = k(2q₁)(2q₂)/(3r)²

F' = (4/9)kq₁q₂/r²

using equation (1):

<u>F' = (4/9)F</u>

Why are there zero hours of daylight at the north pole and south pole in the winter
raketka [301]

A uranium ion and an iron ion are separated by a distance of =61.10 nm. The uranium atom is singly ionized; the iron atom is dou
scoray [572]

Answer:

Explanation:

Charge on uranium ion = charge of a single electron

= 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

charge on doubly ionised iron atom = charge of 2 electron

= 2 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Let the required distance from uranium ion be d .

force on electron at distance d from uranium ion

= 9 x 10⁹ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ / r²

force on electron at distance 61.10 x 10⁻⁹ - r from iron  ion

= 9 x 10⁹ x 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ / (61.10 x 10⁻⁹ - r )²

For equilibrium ,

9 x 10⁹ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ / r² = 9 x 10⁹ x 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ / (61.10 x 10⁻⁹ - r )²

2 d² = (61.10 x 10⁻⁹ - r )²

1.414 r = 61.10 x 10⁻⁹ - r

2.414 r = 61.10 x 10⁻⁹

r = 25.31 nm .
