Answer:

Explanation:

The charge on the electron is

q=1.6×10^-19C

It moves in a path perpendicular to the electric field

Given that the uniform electric field is

E=3N/C.

We need to calculate Work

Distance moved is

d=15cm=0.15m

W=q ∫E.ds

Thus, the angle θ between the path and electric field is 90°, and the dot product E.ds is zero

E.ds= Eds Cos θ= Edscos90

Cos 90=0

Then E.ds=0

Now,

W=q ∫E.ds

W=q × 0

W=0J

To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a _____ scale or _____ scale.
allsm [11]
To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a Richter scale or Mercalli scale. Richter scale uses the amplitued of the wave and the distance from the source. Mercalli scale uses observations of people and is not considered to be scientific as Richter scale.

Earth’s atmosphere is in hydrostatic equilibrium. What this means is that the pressure at any point in the atmosphere must be hi
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: The pressure that one experiences on the Mount Everest will be different from the one, in a classroom. It is because pressure and height are inversely proportional to each other. This means that as we move up, the height keeps on increasing but the pressure will keep on decreasing. This is the case that will be observed when one stands on the Mount Everest as the pressure is comparatively much lower there.

It is because as we move up, the amount of air molecules keeps on decreasing but all of the air molecules are concentrated on the lower part of the atmosphere or on the earth's surface.

Thus a person in a low altitude inside a classroom will experience high pressure and a person standing on the Mount Everest will experience low pressure.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

\theta_{max} =18.38^o

b

New  n_{cladding} =1.491

Explanation:

 From the question we are told that

          The refractive index of the core is  n_{core} = 1.497

         The refractive index of the cladding  is   n_{cladding} = 1.421

Generally according to Snell's law

      n_{core} * sin(90- \theta) = n_{cladding} * sin (90)

Where \theta_{max} is the largest angle a largest angle a ray will make with respect to the interface of the fiber and experience total internal reflection

      \theta_{max} = 90 - sin^{-1} [\frac{n_{cladding}}{n_{core}} ]

       \theta_{max} = 90 - sin^{-1} [\frac{1.421}{1.497}} ]

      \theta_{max} =18.38^o

Given from the question the the largest angle is  5°

Generally the refraction index of the cladding is mathematically represented as

           n_{cladding} = n_{core} * sin (90 - 5)

          n_{cladding} =1.491

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Expression for relative velocity

= \frac{v_1+v_2}{1+\frac{v_1v_2}{c^2} }

= (.54 + .82 )c/ 1+ \frac{.54 \times.82}{1}

= 1.36 c / 1.4428

= .94 c

β = .94
