An electron that has a velocity with x component 1.6 × 106 m/s and y component 2.4 × 106 m/s moves through a uniform magnetic fi

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

(a) 5.056 x 10^-14 N

(b) 5.056 x 10^-14 N

Explanation:

X component of velocity of electron is 1.6 × 10^6 m/s

Y component of velocity of electron is 2.4 × 10^6 m/s

X component of magnetic field is 0.025 T

Y component of magnetic field is -0.16 T

charge on electron, q = - 1.6 x 10^-19 C

Write the velocity and magnetic field in the vector forms.

$\overrightarrow{v}=1.6\times 10^{6}\widehat{i}+2.4\times 10^{6}\widehat{j}$

$\overrightarrow{B}=0.025\widehat{i}-0.16\widehat{j}$

The force on the charge particle when it is moving in the magnetic field is given by

$\overrightarrow{F}=q\left ( \overrightarrow{v}\times \overrightarrow{B} \right )$

(a) Force on electron is given by

$\overrightarrow{F}=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\left ( 1.6\times 10^{6}\widehat{i}+2.4\times 10^{6}\widehat{j} \right )\times \left ( 0.025\widehat{i}-0.16\widehat{j} \right )$

$\overrightarrow{F}=5.056\times 10^{-14}\widehat{k}$

Magnitude of force is 5.056 x 10^-14 N.

(b) Force on a proton is given by

$\overrightarrow{F}=1.6\times 10^{-19}\left ( 1.6\times 10^{6}\widehat{i}+2.4\times 10^{6}\widehat{j} \right )\times \left ( 0.025\widehat{i}-0.16\widehat{j} \right )$

$\overrightarrow{F}=-5.056\times 10^{-14}\widehat{k}$

Magnitude of force is 5.056 x 10^-14 N.

Thus, the magnitude of force remains same but the direction of force is opposite to each other.

A 2.40 kgkg can of coffee moving at 1.50 m/sm/s in the +x+x-direction on a kitchen counter collides head-on with a 1.20 kgkg box

Monica [59]

Answer:

1.35 m/s in the +x direction

Explanation:

Mass of can of coffee, m = 2.4 kg

Initial velocity of can of coffee, u = 1.5 m/s

Mass of box of macaroni, M = 1.2 kg

Initial velocity of box of macaroni, U = 0 m/s

Final velocity of can of coffee, v = 0.825 m/s

We can find the final velocity of the box of macaroni, V, by using the Principle of Conservation of momentum:

Total initial momentum = Total final momentum

Momentum is given as the product of mass and velocity. Hence:

mu + MU = mv + MV

(2.4 * 1.5) + (1.2 * 0) = (2.4 * 0.825) + (1.2 * V)

3.6 + 0 = 1.98 + 1.2V

1.2V = 3.6 - 1.98 = 1.62

=> V = 1.62/1.2

V = 1.35 m/s

The final velocity of the box of macaroni is 1.35 m/s and it is in the +x direction.

Which of the following solves a known problem with wind energy?

Ahat [919]

Answer:

As with all energy supply options, wind energy can have adverse environmental impacts, including the potential to reduce, fragment, or degrade habitat for wildlife, fish, and plants. Furthermore, spinning turbine blades can pose a threat to flying wildlife like birds and bats.Although wind power plants have relatively little impact on the environment compared to conventional power plants, concern exists over the noise produced by the turbine blades and visual impacts to the landscape. Wind plants can impact local wildlife. Birds have been killed by flying into spinning turbine blades.

Two men each weigh 650 N. One man carries +1.0 C of excess charge, the other −1.0 C of excess charge. How far apart must they be

sergejj [24]

Coulomb's law:

F = k×q₁×q₂/r² where k ≈ 9.00×10⁹NC⁻²m²

Given values:

q₁ = +1.0C

q₂ = -1.0C

F = 650N

Substitute the terms in Coulomb's law with our given values. We will have to use the absolute value of q₂ to so the algebra works out. Solve for r:

650 = 9.00×10⁹×1.0×1.0/r²

r = 3721m

Taking significant figures into account:
