When positive and negative attract which initiate the attraction?
Because the charges are equal in magnitude, the attraction is simultaneous.
Why like charges repel and unlike charges attract each other?
The reason why some charges repel while unlike charges attract comes down to polarity. According to Newton, with every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The reason comes down the the amount of protons and electrons in each atom. Equal amounts produce a repelling action where as charges with unequal protons and elections will cause the atoms to attract.
What is a good comparison of the charges of an electron and the charges of a proton?
They are equal in magnitude but opposite in charge.
Two equal charges exert equal forces on each other What if one charge has twice the magnitude of the other?
Whatever be the magnitude of charge, two charges will always exert equal force on each other. As force depends on the product of magnitude of charges, it will increase if magnitude is doubled but will remain same for both the charges.
What is an attraction between a positive ion and a negative ion?
they will attract if they have equal and opposite charges, such as Na and Cl
How positive and negative attract?
Think about it in science. If you had any atom with only positive charges or just negative charges it is an unstable atom, therfore you can't make anything out of it. They attract like puzzle pieces. To stabalize an object you need an equal amount of positive and negative charges.
What is the separation between two equal charges if force between them is equal two the weight of a 50 kg person?
That's going to depend on the magnitude of the charges. You've said that they're equal, and that's appreciated although unnecessary. But we still need a number.
When there are two or more charges the electric fields of each individual charge by repelling or attracting?
Two equal charges will repel one another. Two different charges (i.e., a positive and a negative charge) will attract one another.
How does the electric charge on the proton compare with the electric charge on the electron?
They are equal in magnitude but opposite in charge.
The electric charge of a photon is how many times stronger the charge of an electron?
The electric charges of the proton and electron are equal in magnitude (size, strength), and opposite in sign.
How can the resultant of two vecters of the same magnitude be equal to the magnitude of either vector?
If the directions of two vectors with equal magnitudes differ by 120 degrees, then the magnitude of their sum is equal to the magnitude of either vector.
When two vectors are added and their magnitude is equal to the magnitude of resultan what will be angle in between them?
if you add the vectors magnitude and equal to resultant the angle between them is 0
