An electron of mass 9.11 1031 kg has an initial speed of 3.00 105 m/s. It travels in a straight line, and its speed increases to

7.00 105 m/s in a distance of 5.00 cm. Assuming its acceleration is constant, (a) determine the force exerted on the electron and (b) compare this force with the weight of the electron, which we ignored.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of an electron, m=9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg

Initial speed of the electron, u=3\times 10^5\ m/s

Final speed of the electron, v=7\times 10^5\ m/s

Distance, d = 5 cm = 0.05 m

(a) The acceleration of the electron is calculated using the third equation of motion as :

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2d}

a=\dfrac{(7\times 10^5)^2-(3\times 10^5)^2}{2\times 0.05}

a=4\times 10^{12}\ m/s^2

Force exerted on the electron is given by :

F=m\times a

F=9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 4\times 10^{12}

F=3.64\times 10^{-18}\ N

(b) Let W is the weight of the electron. It can be calculated as :

W=mg

W=9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8

W=8.92\times 10^{-30}\ N

Comparison,

\dfrac{F}{W}=\dfrac{3.64\times 10^{-18}}{8.92\times 10^{-30}}

\dfrac{F}{W}=4.08\times 10^{11}

Hence, this is the required solution.

When an atom that has no charge looses two electrons it becomes a
alex41 [277]

Answer: it becomes a positive ion

Explanation:

So, when an atom loses 2 electrons there will be no change in the number of neutrons. Therefore, an isotope will not form. Thus, it is concluded that when an atom with no charge loses two electrons, it becomes a positive ion.

Write a sentence on how these words are used in real life situations
ipn [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

You can approach an expression for the instantaneous velocity at any point on the path by taking the limit as the time interval gets smaller and smaller. Such a limiting process is called a derivative and the instantaneous velocity can be defined as.#3

For the special case of straight line motion in the x direction, the average velocity takes the form: If the beginning and ending velocities for this motion are known, and the acceleration is constant, the average velocity can also be expressed as For this special case, these expressions give the same result. Example for non-constant acceleration#1

a man hits a golf ball (0.2kg) which accelerates at a rate of 20 m/s what amount of force acted on the ball
MAVERICK [17]

The ball only accelerates during the brief time that the club is in contact
with it. After it leaves the club face, it takes off at a constant speed.

If it accelerates at 20 m/s² during the hit, then

   Force = (mass) x (acceleration) = (0.2kg) x (20 m/s²) = <em>4 newtons</em> .
