Two particles with charges +2
q and +
q are separated by a distance
r . The +2
q particle has an electric field
E at distance
r and exerts a force
F on the +
q particle. Use this information to answer questions 31–32.
What is the electric field of the +
q particle at the same distance and what force does it exert on the +2
q particle?

Section summary
- The electrostatic force field surrounding a charged object extends out into space in all directions.
- The electrostatic force exerted by a point charge on a test charge at a distance
depends on the charge of both charges, as well as the distance between the two.
- The electric field
is defined to be
where
is the Coulomb or electrostatic force exerted on a small positive test charge
.
has units of N/C.
- The magnitude of the electric field
created by a point charge
is
where
is the distance from
. The electric field
is a vector and fields due to multiple charges add like vectors.

what is the function of lymphatic system
to drain extracellular fluid all over the body.
asegid
The lymphatic system plays several crucial roles in the human body, functioning as a key component of the immune system and contributing to the maintenance of fluid balance. Its main functions include:
1. Immune Response: The lymphatic system produces and transports lymphocytes, which are a type of
asegid
to transport fluids fats proteins and lymphocytes to the blood stream as lymph

what's the difference between anatomy and physiology
Anatomy is the study of the structure of the body, while physiology is the study of the function of the body. Anatomy looks at the body's organs and systems, while physiology looks at how those organs and systems work together to keep the body functioning.

what is enzymes all about?
Enzymes are proteins that help speed up chemical reactions in our bodies. Enzymes are essential for digestion, liver function and much more. Too much or too little of a certain enzyme can cause health problems

the normal temperature is 37°c or 98.6 °Fahrenheit is important for maintaining the homeostasis in the body
the body regular this temperature through the process called thermoregulation which involves brain skin muscle and other organ working together to maintain stable internal temperature
