Find the electric force acting on an alpha particle in a horizontal electric field of 600N/C

1 answer:

6 0

Since an alpha particle has 2 protons and no negative particles (electrons) to balance the net charge, its charge is
Q=2(1.6e-19)=3.2e-19C.
The force on a charged particle is F=QE so
(3.2e-19C)(600N/C)=1.92e-16N

In an experiment the mass of a calorimeter is 36.35 g . Express in micrometer ,millimetre and kg.

Andru [333]

Answer:

1. 36.35 g = 36.35E15 micrometer.

II. 36.35 g = 363.5 millimetre.

III. 36.35 g = 0.03635 kilogram.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass of calorimeter = 36.35 grams

To convert the mass in grams (g) to;

I. Micrometer

Conversion:

1 g = 1 exp 15 um

36.35 g = X um

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 36.35 * 1 exp 15 = 36.35 exp 15 um

36.35 g = 36.35E15 micrometer

II. Millimetre

Conversion:

1 g = 1 milliliter

36.35 g = X milliliter

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 36.35 * 1 = 36.35 milliliter

Next, we would convert milliliter to millimetre;

1 milliliter = 10 millimetre

36.35 milliliter = X millimetre

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 36.35 * 10 = 363.5 millimetre

36.35 g = 363.5 millimetre

III. Kilogram

Conversion:

1000 grams = 1 kilogram

36.35 g = X kilogram

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X * 1000 = 36.35 * 1

Dividing both sides by 1000, we have;

X = 36.35/1000 = 0.03635 kilogram

36.35 g = 0.03635 kilogram

Note:

g is the symbol for grams.
Exp (E) means exponential = 10
um is the symbol for micrometer.

A copper wire has a diameter of 2.097 mm. what magnitude current flows when the drift velocity is 1.54 mm/s? take the density of

frozen [14]

By using drift velocity of the electron, the current flow is 7.20 ampere.

We need to know about drift velocity of electrons to solve this problem. The drift velocity can be determined as

v = I / (n . A . q)

where v is drift velocity, I is current, n is atom number density, A is surface area and q is the charge.

From the question above, we know that

d = 2.097 mm

r = (0.002097 / 2) m

v = 1.54 mm/s = 0.00154 m/s

ρ = 8.92 x 10³ kg/m³

q = e = 1.6 x 10¯¹⁹C

Find the atom density

n = Na x ρ / Mr

where Na is Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10²³), Mr is the atomic weight of copper (63.5 g/mol = 0.635 kg/mol).

n = 6.022 x 10²³ x 8.92 x 10³ / 0.635

n = 8.46 x 10²⁷ /m³

Find the current flows

v = I / (n . A . q)

0.00154 = I / (8.46 x 10²⁷ . πr² . 1.6 x 10¯¹⁹)

0.00154 = I / (8.46 x 10²⁷ . π(0.002097 / 2)² . 1.6 x 10¯¹⁹)

I = 7.20 ampere
