Explanation:
<u>Charge of an Electron</u>
Since Robert Millikan determined the charge of a single electron is
Every possible charged particle must have a charge that is an exact multiple of that elemental charge. For example, if a particle has 5 electrons in excess, thus its charge is
Let's test the possible charges listed in the question:
. We have just found it's a possible charge of a particle
. Since 3.2 is an exact multiple of 1.6, this is also a possible charge of the oil droplets
this is not a possible charge for an oil droplet since it's smaller than the charge of the electron, the smallest unit of charge
cannot be a possible charge for an oil droplet because they are not exact multiples of 1.6
Finally, the charge is four times the charge of the electron, so it is a possible value for the charge of an oil droplet
Summarizing, the following are the possible values for the charge of an oil droplet:
Answer:
<em>The velocity of the carts after the event is 1 m/s</em>
Explanation:
<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum </u>
The total momentum of a system of bodies is conserved unless an external force is applied to it. The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and speed v is
P=mv.
If we have a system of bodies, then the total momentum is the sum of the individual momentums:
If a collision occurs and the velocities change to v', the final momentum is:
Since the total momentum is conserved, then:
P = P'
In a system of two masses, the equation simplifies to:
If both masses stick together after the collision at a common speed v', then:
The common velocity after this situation is:
The m1=2 kg cart is moving to the right at v1=5 m/s. It collides with an m2= 8 kg cart at rest (v2=0). Knowing they stick together after the collision, the common speed is:
The velocity of the carts after the event is 1 m/s
