Answer:
9. The force is a force of attraction and it is 2.95N
10. The magnitude of acceleration 35.12m/s^2 and the direction of this acceleration is away from the other balloon.
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Q1 = 3.4 * 10^-6C
Q2 = - 5.1 * 10^-6C
Distance between the two balloons = 23cm = 0.23m
9. Force acting between the two balloons is a force of attraction because they are unlike charges. Hence, the force between them is:
F = kQ1Q2/r^2
F = (9 *10^9 * 3.4 * 10^-6 * -5.1 * 10^-6)/(2.3 * 10^-1)^2
F = (1.56 * 10^-1)/(5.29 * 10^-2)
F = - 2.95N
10. Assuming that Balloon A has a mass, m, of 0.084kg, then:
F = ma
Where a = acceleration
a = F/m
a = -2.95/0.084
a = - 35.12m/s^2
The acceleration has a magnitude of 35.12m/s^2 and its direction is away from balloon B.
The negative sign shows that the balloon A is slowing down as it moves towards balloon B. Hence, it's velocity is reducing slowly.
