Answer:
(a). The electric force is 0.9 N.
(b). The acceleration is 0.9 m/s²
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass = 1.0 kg
Distance = 1.0 m
Charge = 10 μC
(a). We need to calculate the electric force
Using formula of electric force
[tex]F = \dfrac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^2}[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]F=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times10\times10^{-6}\times10\times10^{-6}}{1.0^2}[/tex]
[tex]F=0.9\ N[/tex]
(b). We need to calculate the acceleration
Using newton's second law
[tex]F = ma[/tex]
[tex]a =\dfrac{F}{m}[/tex]
Put the value into the formula
[tex]a=\dfrac{0.9}{1.0}[/tex]
[tex]a=0.9\ m/s^2[/tex]
Hence, (a). The electric force is 0.9 N.
(b). The acceleration is 0.9 m/s²
