Mr. Ramirez demonstrates that objects can exert forces on each other even when the objects

are not touching. He removes two long pleces of clear plastic tape from a tape dispenser. He

holds a piece of tape in each hand so that they are hanging down. As he moves his hands closer together, the pieces of tape repel each other. His students then plan an investigation to study the forces exerted by the pieces of tape. a. Identify two factors that may affect the forces exerted by the pieces of tape. Explain your

reasoning.




b. Describe how the effect of one of the factors you identified in part (a) could be tested. Be sure to include a description of how the effect would be measured and how the collected data would be analyzed.

Respuesta :

The two factors that may affect the forces exerted by the pieces of tape are  the charge on the tape and distance between them.

The effect of one of the factors could be tested by altering the distance and calculating the forces between them.

What is force?

A force is the push or pull which make a body to move or stop it.

a. When two objects are kept apart. they are always attracted when uncharged kept at any distance.

When the objects are charged, the force will be attractive or repulsive.

The distance between those charged objects increase or decrease in strength depending on the distance between them.

Thus, the two factors that may affect the forces exerted by the pieces of tape are the magnitude of charge on the tape and distance between them.

b. By increasing the distance between the tapes, we can find the strength of forces.
