Two particles each have the same mass but particle #1 has four times the charge of particle #2. Particle #1 is accelerated from
marin [14]

Answer:

 v_2 = 2*v  

Explanation:

Given:

- Mass of both charges = m

- Charge 1 = Q_1

- Speed of particle 1 = v

- Charge 2 = 4*Q_1

- Potential difference p.d = 10 V

Find:

What speed does particle #2 attain?

Solution:

- The force on a charged particle in an electric field is given by:

                                       F = Q*V / r

Where, r is the distance from one end to another.

- The Net force acting on a charge accelerates it according to the Newton's second equation of motion:

                                      F_net = m*a

- Equate the two expressions:

                                      a = Q*V / m*r

- The speed of the particle in an electric field is given by third kinetic equation of motion.

                                      v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2*a*r

Where, v_f is the final velocity,

            v_i is the initial velocity = 0

                                      v_f^2 - 0 = 2*a*r

Substitute the expression for acceleration in equation of motion:

                                       v_f^2 = 2*(Q*V / m*r)*r

                                       v_f^2 = 2*Q*V / m

                                       v_f = sqrt (2*Q*V / m)

- The velocity of first particle is v:

                                       v = sqrt (20*Q / m)

- The velocity of second particle Q = 4Q

                                       v_2 = sqrt (20*4*Q / m)

                                       v_2 = 2*sqrt (20*Q / m)

                                       v_2 = 2*v

Why does a person feel cooler under a rotating fan?
sladkih [1.3K]

What a fan does is create a wind chill effect. ... By blowing air around, the fan makes it easier for the air to evaporate sweat from your skin, which is how you eliminate body heat. The more evaporation, the cooler you feel.

A slingshot is used to launch a stone horizontally from the top of a 20.0 meter cliff. The stone lands 36.0 meters away.
alisha [4.7K]
A) 

     It is a launch oblique, therefore the initial velocity in the vertical direction is zero. Space Hourly Equation in vertical, we have:

S=S_{o}+v_{o}t+ \frac{at^2}{2} \\ 20= \frac{10t^2}{2} \\ t=2s
 
     Through Definition of Velocity, comes:

\Delta v=  \frac{\Delta S}{\Delta t}  \\ v_x= \frac{36}{2}  \\ \boxed {v_{x}=18m/s}


B)
 
     Using the Velocity Hourly Equation in vertical direction, we have:

v_{y}=v_{y_{o}}+gt \\ v_{y}=10\times2 \\ \boxed {v_{y}=20m/s}
  
     The angle of impact is given by:

cos(\theta) =\frac{v_{x}}{v_{y}}  \\ cos(\theta) = \frac{18}{20}  \\ cos(\theta) =0.9 \\ arccos(0.9)=\theta \\ \boxed {\theta \approx 25.84}


If you notice any mistake in my english, please let me know, because i am not native.

Horace has invented a unique pair of reading glasses that have two small light bulbs at the bottom wired in series, so that he c
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses is 0.8 A.

Explanation:  

Given that,

Resistance of each bulb, R = 2 ohms

Voltage of the system, V = 3.2 volts

These two bulbs are connected in series. The equivalent resistance will be 2 ohms +2 ohms = 4 ohms

Let I is the current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses. Using Ohm's law to find it such that :

V=IR\\\\I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{3.2}{4}\\\\I=0.8\ A

So, the current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses is 0.8 A.
