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

Physics
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago
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

To lift a load of 100 kg a distance of 1 m an effort of 25 kg must be applied over an inclined plane of length 4 m. What must be
Troyanec [42]
Using conservation of energy law:-
∑ work in = ∑ work out
and work= force* displacement 
so when we wanted to move a 100kg a distance of 1m 
we multiplied 100*1 = work out
so work in should be equal to 100*g Joules, where g is the acceleration due to gravity.
so workout = 100*g = 25*g *x (divide both sides by 25*g)
x=4m 

by the same way:-
------------------------
work in = 100kg * 2m * g (m/s^2)= work out
so work out = 25*x*g = 200* g (divide both sides by 25*g)
x=8m

Theo made a list of the properties of electromagnetic waves. Identify the mistake in the list. Electromagnetic Wave Properties 1
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Line 3 has a mistake.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that oscillate perpendicular to the each other. Therefore, Line 1 is correct.

Also, the fields in an electromagnetic waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave: therefore, they are transverse waves. So Line 2 is also correct.

Electromagnetic waves, contrary to mechanical waves, do not need a medium to propagate: so, they can also travel through a vacuum. Therefore, Line 3 is wrong.

Finally, all electromagnetic waves travel through a vacuum at the same speed, called speed of light:

c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s

So, Line 4 is also correct.

On Earth, a scale shows that you weigh 585 N. What would the scale read on the Moon (g = 1.60 m/s2)? N
Serggg [28]

Answer:

95.51 N

Explanation:

First, find the mass in kg:

Fg = 585 N

Fg = m*g

585 N = m*9.8 m/s^2

<u>m = 59.69 kg</u>

Then, to find your weight (Fg) on the moon, you use the same equation of

Fg(moon) = m*g, except this time g = 1.60 m/s^2

Fg(moon) = 59.69 kg * 1.60 m/s^2

Fg(moon) = 95.51 N

Hope this helps!! :)
