Homework Statement
F = A [Q][1][Q][2] / [r][2]
Rearrange make A subject
any one have any ideas?
Yes.missyfit said:by moving the Qs and r to other side is A the subject if it is left on the right?
missyfit said:A Q1Q2 / r2 x Q1Q2 / r2 = F Q1Q2 / r2 x Q1Q2 / r2
A = F Q1Q2 / r2
missyfit said:I guess i made a mess of this just learning equations and already finding it stressful. Dont worry thanks for help any way was following system we have been given to do equation clearly not very effective.
The process for rearranging an equation to make a specific variable the subject involves isolating the variable on one side of the equation by using inverse operations. This means performing the opposite operation on both sides of the equation until the variable is alone on one side.
Scientists need to rearrange equations in order to solve for unknown variables or to manipulate the equation to represent a different relationship between the variables. This allows for easier analysis and understanding of the relationship between different quantities.
Some common mistakes when rearranging equations include not performing the same operation on both sides of the equation, forgetting to apply the distributive property, and not accounting for negative signs when moving terms to the other side of the equation.
Rearranging equations can be done for any type of equation, as long as the basic rules of algebra are followed. This means using inverse operations and properly simplifying each step.
Some tips for efficiently rearranging equations include identifying the variable you want to make the subject before starting, using parentheses to avoid mistakes, and double checking each step to ensure accuracy.
