Without the ability to measure, it would be difficult for scientists to conduct experiments or form theories. Not only is measurement important in science and the chemical industry, it is also essential in farming, engineering, construction, manufacturing, commerce, and numerous other occupations and activities.

An electron with speed 2.45 x 10^7 m/s is traveling parallel to a uniform electric field of magnitude 1.18 x 10^4N/C . How much
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

time will elapse before it return to  its staring point is 23.6 ns

Explanation:

given data

speed u = 2.45 × 10^{7} m/s

uniform electric field E = 1.18 × 10^{4} N/C

to find out

How much time will elapse before it returns to its starting point

solution

we find acceleration first by electrostatic force that is

F = Eq

here

F = ma by newton law

so

ma = Eq

here m is mass , a is acceleration and E is uniform electric field and q is charge of electron

so

put here all value

9.11 × 10^{-31} kg ×a = 1.18 × 10^{4} × 1.602 × 10^{-19}

a = 20.75 × 10^{14} m/s²

so acceleration is 20.75 × 10^{14} m/s²

and

time required by electron before come rest is

use equation of motion

v = u + at

here v is zero and u is speed given and t is time so put all value

2.45 × 10^{7} = 0 + 20.75 × 10^{14} (t)

t = 11.80 × 10^{-9} s

so time will elapse before it return to  its staring point is

time = 2t

time = 2 ×11.80 × 10^{-9}

time is 23.6 × 10^{-9} s

time will elapse before it return to  its staring point is 23.6 ns

How high would you have to lift a 1000kg car to give it a potential energy of:
Elza [17]

Given parameters:

Mass of the car = 1000kg

Unknown:

Height  = ?

To find the heights for the different amount potential energy given, we need to understand what potential energy is.

Potential energy is the energy at rest due to the position of a body.

 It is mathematically expressed as:

          P.E  = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

h is the height of the car

Now the unknown is h, height and we make it the subject of the expression to make for easy calculation.

               h = \frac{P.E }{mg}

<u>For 2.0 x 10³ J;</u>

                  h  = \frac{2000}{1000 x 9.8}   = 0.204m

<u>For 2.0 x 10⁵ J;</u>

                  h  = \frac{200000}{9.8 x 1000}   = 20.4m

<u>For 1.0kJ  = 1 x 10³J; </u>

                  h  = \frac{1000}{9.8 x 1000}   = 0.102m

How do I do these? Please help
ICE Princess25 [194]

Explanation:

4a)the displacement is the distance moved in a direction but since no direction is given, the displacement is equal to the distance

b) the distance moved is 400m because that's the length of the track
