Answer carefully: (a) Two large conducting spheres carrying charges Q_(1) and Q_(2) are brought close to each other. Is the magnitude of electrostatic force between them exactly given by Q_(1),Q_(2)//4pi epsilon_(0)r^(2) , where r is the distance between their centres?

hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell may have an acidic or alkaline electrolyte. The half-cell reactions are To maximize the power per unit mass of an electrochemical cell, the electronic and electrolytic resistances of the cell must be minimized. Since fused salts have lower electrolytic resistances that aqueous solutions, high-temperature electrochemical cells are of special interest for practical applications. High temperature also allow the use of liquid metal electrode, which make possible higher current densities than solid electrodes If 560 mL of H_2 gas at STP is fed into and is consumed by the fuel cell in 10 minutes, then what is the current output of the fuel cell?
