Answer:
The answer to your question is 3.27 m
Explanation:
Data
q₁ = -40 x 10⁻⁶ C
q₂ = 108 x 10⁻⁶ C
F = 4 N
d = ?
K = 9.9 x 10⁹ N m²/C²
- Use Coulomb's law to solve this problem.
F = Kq₁q₂ / d²
- Solve for d²
d² = Kq₁q₂ / F
- Substitution
d² = 9.9 x 10⁹ (40 x 10⁻⁶)(108 x 10⁻⁶) / 4
- Simplification
d² = 42.768 / 4
d² = 10.692
- Result
d = √10.692
d = 3.27 m
