Answer:

2.29e-9C/m²

Explanation:

Using E = σ/ε₀ means the force on the electron is F = eE = eσ/ε₀.

The work done on the electron is W = Fd = deσ/ε₀. This equals the kinetic energy lost, ½mv².

½mv² = deσ/ε₀

d = 75cm – 15cm = 60cm = 0.6m

σ = mv²ε₀/(2de)

. .= 9.11e-31 * (7.4e6)² * 8.85e-12 / (2 * 0.6 * 1.6e-19)

. .= 2.29e-9 C/m² (i.e. 2.29x10^-9 C/m²)

A telephone line has a signal-to-noise ratio of 1000 and a bandwidth of 4 KHz. What is the maximum data rate supported by this l
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The maximum data rate supported by this line is 39900 bps

Explanation:

The maximum data rate supported by this line can be obtained using the formula below

c = W*log2(S/N+1)

where;

c is the maximum data rate supported by the line

W is the bandwidth = 4kHz

S/N+1 is the signal to noise ratio = 1001

c = 4*log2(1001)

c = 39868.9 ≅ 39900 bps

Therefore, the maximum data rate supported by this line is 39900 bps

What do measurements of the number of neutrinos emitted by the Sun tell us about conditions deep in the solar interior?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The neutrinos are produced in the core of the sun by nuclear fusion and measuring their number helps us confirm that there are enough proton-proton chain reactions of each which produce a neutrino and going on in the Sun's core to explain the energy output of the Sun.

A 60 kg boy and 40 kg girl stand on skateboards on a frictionless horizontal surface. The boy pushes the girl away from him. The
bezimeni [28]

Here in the above situation when boy pushes the girl there will be equal and opposite force on boy as per Newton's III law.

Due to this action reaction law boy will also go back with some speed.

Since there is no external force on this girl + boy system so we can use momentum conservation principle here.

As per momentum conservation

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

60*0 + 40*0 = 60*v_{1f} + 40*0.3

0 = 60*v_{1f}+ 12

v_{1f} = -0.2 m/s

So boy will go back with speed 0.2 m/s

Part b)

Since the boy and girl will always exert same force on each other by Newton's III law so it has no it matter whether the boy pushed the girl, the girl pushed the boy, or they put their hands together and pushed each other away.

As in all above cases the as per Newton's III law the force on them is always equal and opposite.
