Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

The electric fields of strengths E = 187,500 V/m and

and The magnetic fields of strengths B = 0.1250 T

The diameter d is 25.05 cm which is converted to 0.2505m

The radius is (d/2)

= 0.2505m / 2 = 0.12525m

The given formula to find the magnetic force is $F_{ma}=BqV---(i)$

The given formula to find the electric force is $F_{el}=qE---(ii)$

The velocity of electric field and magnetic field is said to be perpendicular

Electric field is equal to magnectic field

Equate equation (i) and equation (ii)

$Bqv=qE\\\\v=\frac{E}{B}$

$v=\frac{187500}{0.125} \\\\v=15\times10^5m/s$

It is said that the particles moves in semi circle, so we are going to consider using centripetal force

$F_{ce}=\frac{mv^2}{r}---(iii)$

magnectic field is equal to centripetal force

Lets equate equation (i) and (iii)

$Bqr=\frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\\frac{q}{m}=\frac{v}{Br} \\\\\frac{q}{m} =\frac{15\times 10^5}{0.125\times0.12525} \\\\=\frac{15\times10^5}{0.015656} \\\\=95808383.23\\\\=958.1\times10^5C/kg$

Therefore, the particle's charge-to-mass ratio is $958.1\times10^5C/kg$

b)

To identify the particle

Then 1/ 958.1 × 10⁵ C/kg

The charge to mass ratio is very close to that of a proton, which is about 1*10^8 C/kg

Therefore the particle is proton.

The oscillating electric field in a plane electromagnetic wave is given by <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%7B50%5Csin%20%28%5

Scorpion4ik [409]

Here, we are given with:

${:\implies \quad \longrightarrow \begin{cases}\sf E_{0}= 50\: V/m\\ \sf \nu = 2\times 10^{7}Hz\end{cases}}$

(a) So now, we can thus obtain

${:\implies \quad \sf \omega =2\pi \nu}$

${:\implies \quad \sf \omega =2\pi (2\times 10^{7})}$

${:\implies \quad \boxed{\bf{\omega = 4\pi \times 10^{7}\: s^{-1}}}}$

Now, finding $\lambda$

${:\implies \quad \sf \lambda =\dfrac{c}{\omega}=\dfrac{3\times 10^{8}}{4\pi \times 10^{7}}}$

${:\implies \quad \boxed{\bf{\lambda \approx 2.39\:m}}}$

Now, finding k

${:\implies \quad \sf k=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}=\dfrac{200\pi}{239}}$

${:\implies \quad \boxed{\bf{k\approx 2.63\:m^{-1}}}}$

Thus, expression for the electric field is:

${:\implies \quad \boxed{\bf{E=50\sin \bigg(4\pi \times 10^{7}t-\dfrac{263x}{100}\bigg)}}}$

(b) Now, here

${:\implies \quad \sf B_{0}=\dfrac{E_{0}}{c}=\dfrac{50}{3\times 10^{8}}}$

${:\implies \quad \boxed{\bf{B_{0}\approx 16.67×10^{-7}\:T}}}$

Thus, expression for the magnetic field:

${:\implies \quad \boxed{\bf{B_{y}=16.67\times 10^{-7}\sin \bigg(4\pi \times 10^{7}t-\dfrac{263x}{100}\bigg)\:T}}}$

Asteroid Ida was photographed by the Galileo spacecraft in 1993, and the photograph revealed that the asteroid has a small moon,

Nady [450]

Answer:

The orbital speed of Dactyl is $5.55m/s$

Explanation:

The orbital speed can be determined by the combination of the universal law of gravity and Newton's second law:

$F = G\frac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}$ (1)

Where G is gravitational constant, M is the mass of the asteroid, m is the mass of the moon and r is the distance between them

In the other hand, Newton's second law can be defined as:

$F = ma$ (2)

Where m is the mass and a is the acceleration

Then, equation 2 can be replaced in equation 1

$m\cdot a = G\frac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}$ (2)

However, a will be the centripetal acceleration since the moon Dactyl describe a circular motion around the asteroid

$a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}$ (3)

$m\frac{v^{2}}{r} = G\frac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}$ (4)

Therefore, v can be isolated from equation 4:

$m \cdot v^{2} = G \frac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}r$

$m \cdot v^{2} = G \frac{M \cdot m}{r}$

$v^{2} = G \frac{M \cdot m}{rm}$

$v^{2} = G \frac{M}{r}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{G M}{r}}$ (5)

Finally, the orbital speed can be found from equation 5:

Notice, that it is necessary to express r in units of meters.

$r = 95km \cdot \frac{1000m}{1km}$ ⇒ $95000m$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.672x10^{-11}N.m^{2}/kg^{2})(4.4x10^{16}kg)}{95000m}}$

$v = 5.55m/s$

Hence, the orbital speed of Dactyl is $5.55m/s$

What does atomic spectrum mean?

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The range of characteristic frequencies of electromagnetic radiation that are readily absorbed and emitted by an atom. The atomic spectrum is an effect of the quantized orbits of electrons around the atom

Additional Facts:

Atomic spectra can also be analyzed to determine the composition of objects
The frequency depends on the difference in energy between the orbitals. Explaining this phenomenon was crucial to the development of quantum mechanics
Occurs due to the fact are quantized at specific levels determined by the atomic number

Which of the following statements about energy is true? I. Kinetic energy cannot be transformed into another type of energy. II.

Mashcka [7]

Answer: B. II and III only

Explanation:

Let’s begin by explianing what energy is: the ability of matter to produce work in the form of movement, light, heat, among others. In this sense, there are several types of energy, but we will talk especifically in this case about <u>kinetic energy</u> and <u>potential energy</u>.

<u>Kinetic energy </u>is the energy an object or body has due to its movement and depends on the mass and velocity of the object or body.

To understande it better: If an object is at rest, its velocity is null and it does not have kinetic energy, however, if the object is moving, then it has kinetic energy.

On the other hand, <u>Potential energy</u> is known as <em>“stored energy”</em> that has the potential to be converted into energy of motion (kinetic energy) or another type of energy (thermal energy, for example). In addition, this energy is related to the work done when a certain force moves an object or body from its natural resting state along a distance to a new position.

So, according to this, Kinetic energy can be transformed into potential energy and Potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy or any other type of energy. Hence, options II and III are correct.
