SVETLANKA909090 [29]1 year ago
5 0

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the phone would increase. The gravitational potential energy of the phone would decrease.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy {\rm KE} of an object is proportional to the square of the speed of that object. If air resistance is negligible, the phone would accelerate under gravitational pull and speed up. Hence, the kinetic energy of the phone would increase.

The gravitational field near the surface of the earth is approximately constant. Hence, the gravitational potential energy {\rm GPE} of the phone would be proportional to its height. As the phone approaches the ground, the height of the phone becomes lower and the gravitational potential energy of the phone would decrease.

A square wire, 20 cm on the side, moves at constant speed parallel to the xy-plane into a region where there is a uniform magnet
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The speed of the wire is 5 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 20 cm

Magnetic field = 0.1 T

Current = 10 mA

Resistance R= 10\Omega

We need to calculate the  speed of the wire

Using formula of emf

\epsilon=Bvl

Using formula of current

I=\dfrac{\epsilon}{R}

Put the value of \epsilon into the formula of current

I=\dfrac{Bvl}{R}

v=\dfrac{IR}{Bl}

v=\dfrac{10\times10^{-3}\times10}{0.1\times20\times10^{-2}}

v= 5\ m/s

Hence, The speed of the wire is 5 m/s.

In 1911, Ernest Rutherford and his assistants Geiger and Marsden conducted an experiment in which they scattered alpha particles
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of mechanical energy

kinetic energy of alpha particle is converted into electric potential energy.

1/2 mv² = k q₁q₂/d , d is closest distance

d = 2kq₁q₂ / mv²

= 2 x 9 x 10⁹ x 79e x 2e / 4mv²

= 1422 x2x (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)² x 10⁹ /4x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x (1.5 x 10⁷)²

= 3640.32 x 10⁻²⁹ /2x 3.7575 x 10⁻¹³

= 484.4 x 10⁻¹⁶

=48.4  x 10⁻¹⁵ m
