In a mass spectrometer a particle of mass m and charge q is accelerated through a potential difference V and allowed to enter a

magnetic field B, where it is deflected in a semi-circular path of radius R. The magnetic field is uniform and oriented perpendicular to the velocity of the particle. Derive an expression for the mass of the particle in terms of B, q, V, and R.

Answer:

m = B²qR² / 2 V

Explanation:

If v be the velocity after acceleration under potential difference of V

kinetic energy  = loss of electric potential energy

1/2 m v² = Vq ,

v² = 2 Vq / m ----------------------- ( 1 )

In magnetic field , charged particle comes in circular motion in which magnetic force provides centripetal force

magnetic force = centripetal force

Bqv = mv² / R

v = BqR / m

v² = B²q²R² / m²  ------------------------- (2)

from (1) and (2)

B²q²R² / m²  = 2 Vq / m

m = B²q²R² / 2 Vq

m = B²qR² / 2 V

A jogger travels a route that has two parts. The first is a displacement of 3 km due south, and the second involves a displaceme
spayn [35]

Answer:

a) 2.41 km

b) 38.8°

Questions c and d are illegible.

Explanation:

We can express the displacements as vectors with origin on the point he started (0, 0).

When he traveled south he moved to (-3, 0).

When he moved east he moved to (-3, x)

The magnitude of the total displacement is found with Pythagoras theorem:

d^2 = dx^2 + dy^2

Rearranging:

dy^2 = d^2 - dx^2

dy = \sqrt{d^2 - dx^2}

dy = \sqrt{3.85^2 - 3^2}  = 2.41 km

The angle of the displacement vector is:

cos(a) = dx/d

a = arccos(dx/d)

a = arccos(3/3.85) = 38.8°

What is the difference between a circuit and a current?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

a circuit is a complete loop that carries a current in the form of electrons from negative to positive

Explanation:

The difference between current and circuit is that a circuit is a complete loop that carries a current in the form of electrons from negative to positive .

In a circuit, there are difference elements or components such as the battery, wire, resistor. The goal of a circuit arrangement is to completely carry current from one end to another.

The current is the quantity of charge that flows within the circuit per unit of time.

So, the battery supplies the electromotive force to move the current round the circuit.

A ball with a mass of 5.0 g is moving at a speed of 2.0 m/s. Would doubling the mass or doubling the speed have a greater effect
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is K.E1/2mv2 so that means it is directly proportional to mass and velocity.

Populations of organisms that reproduce asxually tend to show less variation from one individual to another.Why might this be?
algol13

Answer:

This might be because since they reproduce without mating, the genes of their offspring have are not mixed with anyone elses, making them have very little variation in contrast with those that reproduce our way.

A sample of 2.50 kg of water is held at a temperature of 100°C. How much energy must be added to completely turn the liquid wate
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since 100C is the boiling temperature for water, for this problem we don't need to calculate the energy needed to get to the boiling point, just the heat or energy needed to vaporize the water to steam at 100C.

The formula for this is  q=m(delta)

q is Joules of heat needed to vaporize the water to steam at 100C

m is mass in grams

Delta is in Joules per gram and can be looked up for water at this temperature. Here, it is approximately 2260J/g. This online lecture should help ease understanding: https://cabrillo.instructure.com/courses/10267/modules/items/256219

Therefore...

q=2.5g (2260J/g)= 5650J = 5.65kJ
