The electrons in the beam of a television tube have a kinetic energy of 2.20 10-15 j. initially, the electrons move horizontally

from west to east. the vertical component of the earth's magnetic field points down, toward the surface of the earth, and has a magnitude of 3.00 10-5 t. (a) in what direction are the electrons deflected by this field component? due north due south due east due west (b) what is the magnitude of the acceleration of an electron in part (a)? m/s2

(a) The electrons move horizontally from west to east, while the magnetic field is directed downward, toward the surface. We can determine the direction of the force on the electron by using the right-hand rule:
- index finger: velocity --> due east
- middle finger: magnetic field --> downward
- thumb: force --> due north
However, we have to take into account that the electron has negative charge, therefore we have to take the opposite direction: so, the magnetic force is directed southwards, and the electrons are deflected due south.

b) From the kinetic energy of the electrons, we can find their velocity by using
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where K is the kinetic energy, m the electron mass and v their velocity. Re-arranging the formula, we find
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 2.20 \cdot 10^{-15} J}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg} }=6.95 \cdot 10^7 m/s

The Lorentz force due to the magnetic field provides the centripetal force that deflects the electrons:
qvB = m \frac{v^2}{r}
where
q is the electron charge
v is the speed
B is the magnetic field strength
m is the electron mass
r is the radius of the trajectory
By re-arranging the equation, we find the radius r:
r= \frac{mv}{qB}= \frac{(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg)(6.95 \cdot 10^7 m/s)}{(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C)(3.00 \cdot 10^{-5} T)}=13.18 m

And finally we can calculate the centripetal acceleration, given by:
a_c =  \frac{v^2}{r}= \frac{(6.95 \cdot 10^7 m/s)^2}{13.18 m}=3.66 \cdot 10^{14} m/s^2

A system in which only one particle can move has the potential energy shown in (figure 1). Suppose u1 = 60 j. What is the y-comp
marta [7]

The y-component of the force on the particle at the given position is 120 N.

<h3>Electric force on the particle</h3>

The electric force on the particle is determined by applying Coulomb's law and work-energy theorem as shown below;

Fd = W

Where;

  • F is the applied force
  • d is the distance
  • W is potential

F = W/d

F = 60/0.5

F = 120 N

Thus, the y-component of the force on the particle at the given position is 120 N.

A pulley system lifts a 1345 n weight a distance of 0.975m. Paul pulls the rope a distance of 3.90m, exerting a force of 375N. A
Rashid [163]

A. IMA: 4

The Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) is given by:

IMA = \frac{d_i}{d_o}

where

d_i is the input distance

d_o is the output distance

For the pulley system in this problem, d_i = 3.90 m and d_o = 0.975 m, so the IMA is

IMA=\frac{3.90 m}{0.975 m}=4


B. MA: 3.59

The actual mechanical advantage (AMA), or simply the Mechanical Advantage (MA), is given by

MA=\frac{F_o}{F_i}

where F_o is the output force and F_i is the input force. For the pulley system in this problem, F_i = 375 N and F_o = 1345 N, so the MA is

MA=\frac{1345 N}{375 N}=3.59


C. Efficiency: 89.8 %

The efficiency of a machine is equal to the ratio between the MA and the AMA:

\eta = \frac{MA}{AMA} \cdot 100

Therefore, in this case,

\eta=\frac{3.59}{4}\cdot 100=0.898=89.8 \%
