The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value.

Explanation:

Coulomb’s law, mathematical description of the electric force between charged objects. Formulated by the 18th-century French physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, it is analogous to Isaac Newton’s law of gravity.

Both gravitational and electric forces decrease with the square of the distance between the objects, and both forces act along a line between them. In Coulomb’s law, however, the magnitude and sign of the electric force are determined by the electric charge, rather than the mass, of an object. Thus, charge determines how electromagnetism influences the motion of charged objects. Charge is a basic property of matter. Every constituent of matter has an electric charge with a value that can be positive, negative, or zero.

Coulomb's Law says that the force between 2 charges is proportional to the product of the quantities of charge on each and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The formula for Coulomb's Law is $F=k\frac{q_{1}q_{2} }{r^{2} }$ .

is the force.

is the Coulomb's constant ( $8.987*10^{9} \frac{Nm^{2} }{C^{2} }$ ).

$q_{1}$ is the electric charge of object 1.

$q_{2}$ is the electric charge of object 2.

is the distance between the two charges.

Electric force is inversely proportional to ( $r^{2}$ ) instead of (). As the distance between charges increases, the electric force decreases by a factor of $\frac{1}{r^{2} }$ .

Answer from: Quest

That depends on what kind of environ meant it is in in space it has the same force that was applied when the velocity was gained

Answer from: Quest

Velocity=total displacement/timefrom house to store is 500 from store to neighbor is 200 therefore total displacement=500+200=700metrestherefore,700metres/910seconds=0.8metres per second

Simon is writing a story about an astronaut whose spacecraft has been boarded by space pirates. the astronaut has her lucky penny in her hand behind her back as the space pirates break into the control room. she has just locked the controls so that the ship is accelerating in the direction of the control room’s ceiling. simon wants the astronaut to use the penny to hit a button on the control panel to turn off the lights and escape. the button is located a short distance behind and below the astronaut’s hands. how should simon use the theory of relativity to describe what the astronaut must do in order to hit the button?
