The microwaves in a microwave oven are produced in a special tube called a magnetron. The electrons orbit in a magnetic field of

9.6 x 10^−2 T at a frequency of 2.7 GHz , and as they do so they emit 2.7 GHz electromagnetic waves.
a) If the maximum diameter of the electron orbit before the electron hits the wall of the tube is 2.5 cm, what is the maximum velocity the electrons may have?

Answer:

Explanation:

For equilibrium of rotating electron in outermost circular path

Centripetal force = force on electron

m v² / r = B q v

v = B q r / m , v is velocity of electron , B is magnetic field, q is charge on electron , r is radius of circular path.

v = 9.6 x 10⁻² x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 1.25 x 10⁻² / 9.1 x 10⁻³¹

= 2.1 x 10⁸ m /s

Proxima Centauri and the Sun are both main-sequence stars, but Proxima Centauri is a red dwarf and the Sun is a yellow dwarf. Ba
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Yellow dwarfs are small, main sequence stars. The Sun is a yellow dwarf. A red dwarf is a small, cool, very faint, main sequence star whose surface temperature is under about 4,000 K. Red dwarfs are the most common type of star. Proxima Centauri is a red dwarf.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

θ₁ = 3.35 10⁻⁴ rad ,  θ₂ = 8.39 10⁻⁵ rad

Explanation:

This is a diffraction problem for a slit that is described by the expression

       sin θ = m λ

the resolution is obtained from the angle between the central maximum and the first minimum corresponding to m = 1

      sin θ = λ / a

as in these experiments the angle is very small we can approximate the sine to its angle

        θ = λ / a

In this case, the circular openings are explicit, so the system must be solved in polar coordinates, which introduces a numerical constant.

       θ = 1.22 λ / D

where D is the diameter of the opening

 let's apply this expression to our case

indicates that the wavelength is λ = 550 nm = 550 10⁻⁹ m

the case of a lot of light D = 2 mm = 2 10⁻³ m

       θ₁ = 1.22 550 10-9 / 2 10⁻³

       θ₁ = 3.35 10⁻⁴ rad

For the low light case D = 8 mm = 8 10⁻³

      θ₂ = 1.22 550 10-9 / 8 10⁻³

      θ₂ = 8.39 10⁻⁵ rad

The skid marks from a car involved in an accident measured 73 feet. To the nearest tenth, what was the speed of the car before t
labwork [276]

Answer:

speed of the car before the brakes were apply is 12.35 m/s

Explanation:

given data

accident measured distance = 73 feet = 22.25 m

to find out

speed of car before the brakes

solution

we consider here coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and the tires is 0.35

and we take speed of the car just before skidding =  u

and final speed of car will be v = 0  

now we apply here work energy theorem

so

0.5 mv² - 0.5 mu² = (- coefficient of kinetic friction × mass × g ) distance  .......1

0.5( v² -u² ) = (- coefficient of kinetic friction × g ) distance

put here value and we get

0.5 ( 0 - u² ) = (- 0.35 × 9.8 ) 22.25

solve it we get

u = 12.35

speed of the car before the brakes were apply is 12.35 m/s
