A 0.12 g honeybee acquires a charge of +24pC while flying. The earth's electric field near the surface is typically 100 N/C, dow

nward. (a) How many electrons were added to or removed from the honeybee? (b) What is the ratio of the electric force on the bee to the bee’s weight (Fe/Fg)? (c) What electric field strength and direction would allow the bee to hang suspended in the air without effort?

Answer:

150000000

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=0.00000203873598369

49050000 N/C

Explanation:

q = Charge = 24 pC

m = Mass of honeybee = 0.12 g

E = Electric field = 100 N/C

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

1\ C=6.25\times 10^{18}\ electrons

Number electrons is

n=24\times 10^{-12}\times 6.25\times 10^{18}\\\Rightarrow n=150000000

The number of electrons added or removed was 150000000

Force is given by

F_e=Eq\\\Rightarrow F_e=100\times 24\times 10^{-12}\\\Rightarrow F_e=2.4\times 10^{-9}\ N

The ratio is

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{2.4\times 10^{-9}}{0.12\times 10^{-3}\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=0.00000203873598369

The ratio is \dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=0.00000203873598369

Balancing the forces we get

Eq=mg\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{mg}{q}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{0.12\times 10^{-3}\times 9.81}{24\times 10^{-12}}\\\Rightarrow E=49050000\ N/C

The electric field required is 49050000 N/C

If the mass of the sun is 1x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone if I place a planet in orbits___, ____, ____
nasty-shy [4]

If the mass of the sun is 1x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone. if I place a planet in orbits 2, 6, and 75, and all planets will orbit the sun successfully.

If the mass of the sun is 2x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone. if I place a planet in orbits 84, 1, and 5, and all planets will orbit the sun successfully.

If the mass of the sun is 3x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone if I place a planet in orbits 672, and 7 and all planets will orbit the sun successfully.

The reflective surface of a CD consists of spirals of equally spaced grooves. If you shine a laser pointer on a CD, each groove
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

d = 1.55 * 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

To calculate the distance between the adjacent grooves of the CD, use the formula, d = \frac{m \lambda}{sin(A_{m}) }..........(1)

The fringe number, m = 1 since it is a first order maximum

The wavelength of the green laser pointer, \lambda = 532 nm = 532 * 10⁻⁹ m

Distance between the central maximum and the first order maximum = 1.1 m

Distance between the screen and the CD = 3 m

A_{m} = Angle between the incident light and the diffracted light

From the setup shown in the attachment, it is a right angled triangle in which

sin(A_{m}) = \frac{opposite}{Hypotenuse} \\sin(A_{m}) =\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1.1^{2}+3^{2}}}

sin(A_{m} ) = 0.344\\A_{m} = sin^{-1} 0.344\\A_{m} = 20.14^{0}

Putting all appropriate values into equation (1)

d = \frac{1* 532*10^{-9} }{0.344 }\\d = 0.00000155 m\\d = 1.55 * 10^{-6} m

An 80-kgkg quarterback jumps straight up in the air right before throwing a 0.43-kgkg football horizontally at 15 m/sm/s . How f
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

V = 0.0806 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass quarterback = 80 kg

mass football = 0.43 kg

velocity = 15 m/s

solution

we consider here momentum conservation is in horizontal direction.

so that here no initial momentum of the quarterback

so that final momentum of the system will be 0

so we can say

M(quarterback) ×  V = m(football) × v (football)   ........................1

put here value we get

80 ×  V  = 0.43  × 15

V = 0.0806 m/s

What determines an object’s thermal energy
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

temperature and mass

Explanation:

  • The higher the temperature of a given quantity of a substance, more is its thermal energy.

  • If a substance contains more mass, this also implies that the object has more particles in it . hence, it has high thermal energy.

<em><u>A</u></em><em><u>d</u></em><em><u>d</u></em><em><u>i</u></em><em><u>t</u></em><em><u>i</u></em><em><u>o</u></em><em><u>n</u></em><em><u>a</u></em><em><u>l</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>n</u></em><em><u>f</u></em><em><u>o</u></em><em><u>r</u></em><em><u>m</u></em><em><u>a</u></em><em><u>t</u></em><em><u>i</u></em><em><u>o</u></em><em><u>n</u></em><em><u> </u></em>:

  • Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles of a substance.

  • The thermal energy of an object depends on three factors:

  1. number of molecules in the object
  2. temperature of the object.
  3. thermal energy it has.
