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 wave will "break" because ________. a wave will "break" because ________. the sediment load of water is greater near the shore
vodka [1.7K]
A wave will "break" because the bottom interferes with its oscillatory motion. Breaking of waves may occur anywhere that the amplitude is sufficient, including in mid-ocean. When waves enter shallow water they break because the motion of water in lower part of the wave nearest the bottom is slowed by friction so that their oscillation is faster than its supporting portion at the bottom. Thus, the wave collapses forward and breaks.

What did Galileo discover when he dropped two cannon balls of different weights from the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
Maru [420]
The answer is "B".. Galileo discovered that dropping two items of the same mass, they can have different weights but no matter what the force that is acting upon them is the same amount, so this means that both objects will hit the ground at the same time. Galileo tested this theory and proved it right.

Which process is not required for an animal to obtain energy from food?
Romashka [77]

Complete Question:

Which process is not required for an animal to obtain energy from food?

a. Secretion.

b. Digestion.

c. Excretion.

d. Ingestion.

Answer:

c. Excretion.

Explanation:

Excretion is a metabolic process in which living organisms gets their system rid of metabolic waste, water and excess ions. This is usually done with the aid of kidney, skin and lungs in all vertebrates.

Example of excretions are urination, sweating and defecation.
