What is the distance between two spheres each with a charge of 1.5 x 10 -6C when the force between them is I N

Respuesta :

Answer:

The distance between spheres is 0.142 meters.

Explanation:

We have,

Magnitude of charges is [tex]q_1=q_2=1.5\times 10^{-6}\ C[/tex]

Force between charges, F = 1 N

It is required to find the distance between spheres having charges. The electrical force between charges is given by :

[tex]F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}[/tex]

r is distance

[tex]r=\sqrt{\dfrac{kq^2}{F}}\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.5\times 10^{-6})^2}{1}} \\\\r=0.142\ m[/tex]

So, the distance between spheres is 0.142 meters.
