Question

Two identical particles with mass 7.03 mg and charge -935.0 nC are released from rest a distance 67.7 m from each other. How fast (in m/s) is one of the particles moving when they are a distance 393.0 m from each other? 

Expert Solution
Step 1

We know that we have given let the two identical particles q1 and q2 have a mass of m and released from the rest to a distance of d to each other. 

Then We know that the force between the two-particle at a distance d is given as 

F= kq1q2d2----- eq1 here q1=q2= q= -935×10-9 C d  = 67.7 m We also know that newton second law of motion F = ma a = Fm---- eq 2  Now we know that the third equation of motion v2= u2+2as----- eq3here u is the initila velocity of particle = 0 m/s s is the distance = 393 m v is the final velocity
