1. Two-point charges, QA = +8 μC and QB = -5 μC, are separated by a distance r = 10 cm. What is the magnitude and direction of the electric force? The constant k = 9 x 109 N-m2/C2 Solution:

F = 36 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge, q₁ = +8 μC

Charge, q₂ = -5 μC

The distance between the charges, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

We need to find the magnitude of the electrostatic force. The formula for the electrostatic force is given by :

So, the magnitude of the electrostatic force is 36 N.

d₁ = displacement of tern from arctic to antarctic = 11000 miles

d₂ = displacement of tern from antarctic to arctic =   - 11000 miles

d = total displacement for the journey

total displacement for the journey is given as

d = d₁ + d₂

d = 11000 + (-11000)

d = 0 miles

t₁ = time of travel from arctic to antarctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t₂ = time of travel from antarctic to arctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t = total time of travel

total time of travel is given as

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 90 + 90

t = 180 days

average velocity is given as

average velocity = total displacement/ total time

v = d/t

v = 0/180

v = 0 miles/day
