- Tyrone and Mia have masses of 84 kg and 59 kg respectively. They sit 1.0 m apart in the front center of Mr. H's Physics class. For some time, they each have been sensing a sort of electricity in their growing relationship. And now, six units into their Physics course, they have learned that they are gravitationally attracted to each other. Determine the magnitude of this force of gravitational attraction.arrow_forwardAn electron is launched at a 45∘ angle and a speed of 5.0×106m/s from the positive plate of the parallel-plate capacitor shown in the figure (Figure 1). The electron lands 4.0 cm away. What is the electric field strength inside the capacitor? What is the smallest possible spacing between the plates? Express your answer with the appropriate units.arrow_forwardPer screen shot -- electric charge idea -- attached, what is the mass in kg? I know first that F = ma. Then, when discussing electric charge, we have force defined in terms of charge in an electric field. So, the problem is to set up problem in those terms, step by step. Help me conceptually.arrow_forward
