Usually the force of gravity on electrons is neglected. To see why, we can compare the force of the Earth’s gravity on an electr

on with the force exerted on the electron by an electric field of magnitude of 40000 V/m (a relatively small field). What is the force exerted on the electron by an electric field of magnitude of 40000 V/m? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 , the mass of an electron is 9.10939 × 10−31 kg, and the elementary charge 1.602 × 10−19 C. Answer in units of N.

Answer:

6.4\cdot 10^{-15} N

Explanation:

The electric force exerted on the electron is given by:

F=qE

where

q=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C is the magnitude of the electron charge

E = 40000 V/m is the electric field

Substituting,

F=(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C)(40000 V/m)=6.4\cdot 10^{-15} N

By comparison, the gravitational force exerted on the electron is:

F=mg

where

m=9.10939\cdot 10^{-31} kg is the mass of the electron

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

Substituting,

F=(9.10939\cdot 10^{-31} kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=8.93\cdot 10^{-30}N

ivann1987 [24]

No temperature change occurs from heat transfer if ice melts and becomes liquid water (i.e., during a phase change). For example, consider water dripping from icicles melting on a roof warmed by the Sun. Conversely, water freezes in an ice tray cooled by lower-temperature surroundings.

#1

As we are increasing the frequency in the simulation the wavelength is decreasing

So if speed remains constant then wavelength and frequency depends inversely on each other

If we are in boat and and moving over very small wavelengths then these small wavelength will be encountered continuously by the boat in short interval of times

#2

As we are changing the amplitude in the simulation there is no change in the speed frequency and wavelength.

So amplitude is independent of all these parameter

Amplitude of wave will decide the energy of wave

So light of greater intensity is the light of larger amplitude

#3

In our daily life we deal with two waves

1 sound waves

2 light waves

A bird flying straight upward at 5 m/s drops a berry when it is 300 m above the ground. How fast is the berry going when it hits
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

v=77.62 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

h= - 300 m

speed of the bird ,u= 5 m/s

Lets take Speed of the berry when it hit the ground = v m/s

we know that ,if object is moving upward

v² = u² - 2 g h

u=Initial speed

v=Final speed

h=Height

Now by putting the values

v² = u² - 2 g h

v² = 5² - 2 x 10 x (-300)                ( take g = 10 m/s²)

v² =25 + 20 x 300

v² ==25 + 6000

v² =6025

v=77.62 m/s

Therefore the final speed of the berry will be 77.62 m/s.
