There's an electric field in some region of space that doesn't change with position. An electron starts moving with a speed of 2

.0 × 107 m/s in a direction opposite to the field. Its speed increases to 4.0 × 107 m/s over a distance of 1.2 cm. What is the magnitude of the electric field?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

speed of Electron u=2\times 10^7\ m/s

final speed of Electron v=4\times 10^7\ m/s

distance traveled d=1.2\ cm

using equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as

where v=Final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

(4\times 10^7)^2-(2\times 10^7)^2=2\times a\times 1.2\times 10^{-2}

a=5\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2

acceleration is given by a=\frac{qE}{m}

where q=charge of electron

m=mass of electron

E=electric Field strength

5\times 10^{16}=\frac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\cdot E}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

E=248.3\ kN/C

Write a list of at least five scientific methods.
kolbaska11 [484]
1- You should always have a question for your experiment.
2- You need to conduct background research. It helps to write down your sources so you can cite your references. 
3- Propose a hypothesis (educated guess on what you believe the outcome of the experiment will be)
4- Design and perform an experiment to test your hypothesis (include independent and dependent variable)
5- Record observations and analyze what the data means.
6- Conclude whether you need to accept or reject your hypothesis, which accepting means your hypothesis was right and rejected is if it was wrong.

Calculate the force generated by a car that hits the wall at an
Makovka662 [10]

This is a defective question. It was WRITTEN by someone who is unclear on the concepts.  DON'T try and answer it.

It's trying to get us to use Newton's second law ... F = m • a.

But that only tells us how much force must act ON THE CAR in order to accelerate it. (45 kg) • (4 m/s^2) = 180 newtons.

This is NOT the force exerted BY the car when it hits something. THAT force depends on its speed WHEN it hits, AND how long it takes for the wreckage to actually come to rest, AND how hard or soft the wall is.

DON'T try to answer this question. Your answer will be wrong, you won't understand why, and the teacher you try to argue with probably won't either.

============================================

More explanation:

Think about jumping off of a ladder in your back yard.  Several times.

Your mass is the same every time.  Your acceleration is the same every time . . . 9.8 m/s² down, the acceleration of Earth gravity, every time.

BUT ...

-- I'll bet you would rather land on wood than on concrete. The force of landing would be less.

-- I'll bet you would rather land on dirt than on wood. The force of landing would be less.

-- I'll bet you would rather land on grass than on dirt. The force of landing would be less.

-- I'll bet you would rather land on a pile of blankets than on dirt. The force of landing would be less.

-- I'll bet you would rather land on a trampoline than on a pile of blankets. The force of landing would be less.

-- I'll bet you would rather jump from a short ladder than from a tall one.  Your speed would be less when you landed, and the force of landing would be less.

==> Your mass is the SAME every time, and your acceleration is the SAME every time.  But the force when you hit is DIFFERENT every time.

The mass and acceleration of the car DON'T tell us the force of the hit when the car hits a wall.

Squids propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracting the cavity
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

v_squid = - 2,286 m / s

Explanation:

This exercise can be solved using conservation of the moment, the system is made up of the squid plus the water inside, therefore the force to expel the water is an internal force and the moment is conserved.

Initial moment. Before expelling the water

          p₀ = 0

the squid is at rest

Final moment. After expelling the water

         p_{f} = M V_squid + m v_water

         p₀ = p_{f}

          0 = M V_squid + m v_water

           c_squid = -m v_water / M

The mass of the squid without water is

            M = 9 -2 = 7 kg

let's calculate

           v_squid = 2 8/7

           v_squid = - 2,286 m / s

The negative sign indicates that the squid is moving in the opposite direction of the water
