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

ella [17]
The band of stability curves upward at high atomic numbers due to the fact that excess of neutrons are required due to the repulsion between protons.

Atomic number is the number of protons. As the number of protons (atomic number) increase, the electrical repulsion force, due to the same sign of the protons inside the nucleus, becomes more dominant compared to the nuclear force attractions, then the nucleus needs more neutrons to gain stability.The presence of more neutrons decrease the density of protons which decreases the repulsion among them.

The tension in the horizontal cord is 30N. Find the weight of the object.
vazorg [7]
Making a drawing of the system, we will have two forces which are tension and the weight of the object. Balancing the forces present, we do as follows:

T = W
W = 30 N

Therefore, weight is equal to 30 N. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.

Why does the gravitational field strength increase with latitude
otez555 [7]
The second major reason for the difference in gravity at differentlatitudes is that the Earth's equatorial bulge (itself also caused by centrifugalforce from rotation) causes objects at the Equator to be farther from the planet's centre than objects at the poles.

The weight of the mass added to the hanger is equal to the extra force on the gas, but what area should we use to calculate the
kari74 [83]

Answer: according to the Avagadro's law, volume is directly propotional to no of moles: VXn

according to the Charles law, volume is directly propotional to  temperatue: VXT

according to the Boyle's law, volume is inversely propotional to P: VX1/P

when we combine them we get:

VXnT1/P

V=knT/P

k= R(universal gas constant)

V=RnT/P

PV=nRT
