In order for sound to travel, it has to have its medium. The medium, which are particles or molecules of solid, liquid or gas, collides with each other, it vibrates thus creating sound. In space, there are no particles or molecules that will vibrate for sound to be made.

A cube of plastic 1.2x10^-5 km on a side has a mas of 1.1 g. what is its density in g/cm^3?
Mamont248 [21]
Density = mass / volume

mass = 1.1 g

volume = length of side ^ 3 = [1.2 * 10^-5 km * 100000 cm/km]^3 = [1.2 cm]^3 = 1.728 cm^3

density = 1.1 g / 1.728 cm^3 = 0.64 g / cm^3

An electron moves with a speed of 8.0×106m/s along the -z-axis. It enters a region where there is a uniform magnetic field B = (
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Acceleration, a=9.36\times 10^{18}\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of electron, v=8\times 10^6\ m/s

Charge on an electron, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Mass of electron, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

Magnetic field, B=5.5i-3.7j

Magnitude, |B|=\sqrt{5.5^2+(-3.77)^2}=6.66\ T

Magnetic force is given by :

F=qvB

Also, F = ma

a=\dfrac{qvB}{m}

a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 8\times 10^6\times 6.66}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

a=9.36\times 10^{18}\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the electron is 9.36\times 10^{18}\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
