The electron is accelerated through a potential difference of \Delta V=780 V, so the kinetic energy gained by the electron is equal to its variation of electrical potential energy:
\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =  e \Delta V
where
m is the electron mass
v is the final speed of the electron
e is the electron charge
\Delta V is the potential difference

Re-arranging this equation, we can find the speed of the electron before entering the magnetic field:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2 e \Delta V}{m} } = \sqrt{ \frac{2(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(780 V)}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg} }=1.66 \cdot 10^7 m/s


Now the electron enters the magnetic field. The Lorentz force provides the centripetal force that keeps the electron in circular orbit:
evB=m \frac{v^2}{r}
where B is the intensity of the magnetic field and r is the orbital radius. Since the radius is r=25 cm=0.25 m, we can re-arrange this equation to find B:
B= \frac{mv}{er}= \frac{(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31}kg)(1.66 \cdot 10^7 m/s)}{(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(0.25 m)} =3.8 \cdot 10^{-4} T

What two kinds of crust are involved in a subduction zone
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Oceanic crust and continental crust

Explanation:

A subduction zone is normally between oceanic crust which is made of basalt and continental crust which is made of granite. Oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. So when oceanic crust collides with continental crusts, it subsducts underneath the continental crust since it is denser.

Plz help this is so confusing
Nata [24]

Answer:

5 Km/h

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance travelled = 10 Km

Time = 2 hours

Speed =?

Speed is simply defined as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it can be represented as:

Speed = distance travelled /time.

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed at which the duck is travelling as follow:

Distance travelled = 10 Km

Time = 2 hours

Speed =?

Speed = distance travelled /time.

Speed = 10 / 2

Speed = 5 Km/h

Thus, the duck is travelling at a speed of 5 Km/h

Add these measurements, using significant digit rules:
tia_tia [17]

Here we have to add the two measurements given in the question

The measurement values are given as 1.0090 cm and 0.02 cm.we have to  add them on the basis of significant figure rules.

As per the addition rule in terms of significant figures

1-First we have to select the number of significant digits after the decimal point of each quantity.

2-Now we have to remember that during the addition ,the resultant of two quantities will follow the quantity having least number of significant figures after the decimal point.

3-Here we are considering the minimum number of significant figures after the decimal points not the minimum number of significant figures in case of multiplication and division

Now we have to add these two quantities as per the above rule-

         1.0090 cm +0.02 cm

         =1.0290 cm

Here the result  will follow 0.02 which has minimum number of significant figures after the decimal points.

Hence we have to round off the number from 9 of 1.0290

As 9 is  greater than 5 ,so he actual result will be 1.03 cm
