Two charged particles with the same charge are held apart at a distance. What will the particles likely do if they are released?

Question 2 options:

A) They will rotate around one another according to the right hand rule

B) They will accelerate towards each other

C) They will accelerate away from each other

D) They will stay in place

C) They will accelerate away from each other

Explanation:

Just like magnets, if the charges are the same, the point charges will repel one another.  They will exert a net force in opposite directions, and will thus accelerate away from one another.

when two balls of the different masses are dropped from equal height, they reach the ground at the same time .this is because they experience the same acceleration.

the acceleration is independent of mass.

thus when they are dropped they will always maintain the same velocity and travel the same distance (neglect air resistance of course) at the same time.

get the total number of pieces of fruit and divide it by 4 to get the average. the result is the answer to the problem. 14 total number of fruits and there are 4 members. 14 divided by 4 is equals to 3.5.
