Two point charges attract each other with an electric force of magnitude f. a. if one charge is reduced to one-third its original value and the distance between the charges is doubled, what is the resulting magnitude of the electric force between them? b. if one charge is reduced to one-fourth its original value, how should the distance between the two charges change such that the force f remains constant?

Amerry-go-round of radius r, shown in the figure, is rotating at constant angular speed. the friction in its bearings is so small that it can be ignored. a sandbag of mass m is dropped onto the merry-go-round, at a position designated by r. the sandbag does not slip or roll upon contact with the merry-go-round. how would you rank the following different combinations of m and r on the basis of the angular speed of the merry-go-round after the sandbag "sticks" to the merry-go-round from largest to smallest. a) m = 10kg, r = 0.25r b) m = 20kg, r = 0.25r c) m = 10kg, r = 0.50r d) m = 10kg, r = 1.0r e) m = 15kg, r = 0.75r f) m = 40kg, r = 0.25r
