A point charge q 1 = +5.00 C is held fixed in space. From a horizontal distance
Question:
A point charge q1 = +5.00 µC is held fixed in space. From a horizontal distance of 6.00 cm, a small sphere with mass 4.00 × 10-3 kg and charge q2 = +2.00 µC is fired toward the fixed charge with an initial speed of 40.0 m/s. Gravity can be neglected. What is the acceleration of the sphere at the instant when its speed is 25.0 m/s?
Step by Step Answer:
IDENTIFY As the sphere approaches the point charge the speed of the sphere decreases becaus...View the full answer

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
