A negative charge of -2 C and a positive charge of 5 C are separated by 84,752 m. What is the force between the two charges?

Sagot :

Answer:

F = 12.52 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge, q₁ = -2 C

Charge, q₂ = 5 C

The distance between charges, d = 84,752 m

We need to find the force between the two charges. The force between two charges is given by :

[tex]F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}\\\\F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{2\times 5}{(84752)^2}\\F=12.52\ N[/tex]

So, the force between charges is 12.52 N.
