Answer:

The Earth's magnetism is generated in the core, which is composed of iron that is constantly churning

Explanation:

Magnetic fields are produced by charges in motion, therefore by currents.

The outer core of the Earth consists mainly of melted iron that is in constant motion. This iron in motion actually acts as a giant current, and therefore it is responsible for the creation of the Earth's magnetic field.

The magnetic field of the Earth is very weak, in fact its magnitude is on average between 25 and 65 microtesla (for comparison, normal magnets can even produce magnetic fields of a few millitesla).

However, its role is very important for the Earth: in fact, it provides a shield that blocks most of the harmful radiation coming from the Sun.

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor and accelerates to the positive plate (see

mash [69]

Answer:

(7.90 × 10⁻¹⁵) J

Explanation:

The electric force exerted on the elecrron by rhe electric field is given by

F = qE

where |q| = charge on the particle = (1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹) C

E = magnitude of the electric field = (2.9 × 10⁶) V/m or N/C

F = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ × 2.9 × 10⁶ = (4.646 × 10⁻¹³) N

From Newton's first law of motion relation, we can obtain the acceleration this force confers on the electron

F = ma

m = mass of the electron = (9.11 × 10⁻³¹) kg

a = acceleration of the electron caused by the electric force = ?

(4.646 × 10⁻¹³) = (9.11 × 10⁻³¹) × a

a = (4.646 × 10⁻¹³)/(9.11 × 10⁻³¹)

a = (5.10 × 10¹⁷) m/s²

Now, using the equations of motion, we can obtain the velocity with which the electron reaches the positive plate

u = initial velocity of the electron = 0 m/s (since the electron was initially at rest)

v = final velocity of the electron = ?

a = acceleration of the electron = (5.10 × 10¹⁷) m/s²

y = distance covered by the electron = 1.7 cm = 0.017 m

v² = u² + 2ay

v² = 0² + 2(5.10 × 10¹⁷)(0.017)

v² = (1.734 × 10¹⁶)

v = 131,677,182.5 m/s = (1.32 × 10⁸) m/s

Kinetic energy with which the electron hits the positive plate = (1/2)(m)(v²) = (1/2)(9.11 × 10⁻³¹)(1.32 × 10⁸)² = (7.90 × 10⁻¹⁵) J

Hope this Helps!!!

A top-fuel dragster starts from rest and has a constant acceleration of 42.0 m/s2. What are (a) the final velocity of the dragst

disa [49]

Answer:

a) Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 75.6 m/s

b) Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 151.2 m/s

c) The displacement of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 68.04 m

d) The displacement of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 272.16 m

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 1.8 s

Substituting

v = u + at

v = 0 + 42 x 1.8 = 75.6 m/s

Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 75.6 m/s

b) We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 3.6 s

Substituting

v = u + at

v = 0 + 42 x 3.6 = 75.6 m/s

Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 151.2 m/s

c) We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 1.8 s

Substituting

s= ut + 0.5 at²

s = 0 x 1.8 + 0.5 x 42 x 1.8²

s = 68.04 m

The displacement of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 68.04 m

d) We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 3.6 s

Substituting

s= ut + 0.5 at²

s = 0 x 3.6 + 0.5 x 42 x 3.6²

s = 272.16 m

The displacement of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 272.16 m
