Is magnitude proportional to force?
Newton’s second law of motion can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
How does the magnitude of a charge relate to its force?
Experiments with electric charges have shown that if two objects each have electric charge, then they exert an electric force on each other. The magnitude of the force is linearly proportional to the net charge on each object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
What is the relationship between the electric force and the product of magnitude of the two charges?
The magnitude of the electric force between q 1 q_1 q1q, start subscript, 1, end subscript and q 2 q_2 q2q, start subscript, 2, end subscript is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This equation is known as Coulomb’s Law.
Which force is directly proportional to product of charges?
The magnitude of the electrostatic force F between two point charges q1 and q2 is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
What is proportional to the product of the magnitudes of the two charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges?
Coulomb-s-law
The fundamental law of electrostatics stating that the force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
How are force and mass directly proportional?
It states that the time rate of change of the velocity (directed speed), or acceleration, , is directly proportional to the force F and inversely proportional to the mass m of the body; i.e., a = F / m or F = ma; the larger the force, the larger the acceleration (rate of change of velocity); the larger the mass, the …
