Answer:
The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration increases by 16 times when the linear speed increases by 4 times.
Explanation:
The initial centripetal acceleration, a of the race-car around the circular track of radius , R with a linear speed v is a = v²/R.
When the linear speed of the race-car increases to v' = 4v, the centripetal acceleration a' becomes a' = v'²/R = (4v)²/R = 16v²/R.
So the centripetal acceleration, a' = 16v²/R.
To know how much the magnitude of the car's centripetal acceleration changes, we take the ratio a'/a = 16v²/R ÷ v²/R = 16
a'/a = 16
a' = 16a.
So the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration increases by 16 times when the linear speed increases by 4 times.
I can not solve the problem if I do not have the mass.
Answer:
Explanation:
A proton and electron are moving in the positive x direction, this shows that their velocity will be in the positive x direction
V = v•i
Magnetic field Is the positive z direction
B = B•k
A. For proton.
Proton has a positive charge of q
Direction of force on proton
Force is given as
F = q(v×B)
F = q( v•i × B•k)
F = qvB (i×k)
From vectors i×k = -j
F = -qvB •j
Then, for the positive charge, the force will act in the negative direction of the y-axis
B. For electron
Electron has a negative of -q
Direction of force on proton
Force is given as
F = q(v×B)
F = -q( v•i × B•k)
F = -qvB (i×k)
From vectors i×k = -j
F = --qvB •j
F = qvB •j
Then, for the negative charge, the force will act in the positive direction of the y-axis
