First, the student needs to get the radius of the ball. He/she can do that by simply measuring the diameter and dividing it by two to get the radius.

The next step would be to calculate the volume of the ball using the rule of volume of a perfect sphere (since the ball is considered a perfect sphere). The rule for calculating the volume of sphere is as follows:
volume of sphere = (4/3) x pi x (radius)^3 .......> this is the correct formula

The next step is to calculate the density, since the mass of the ball is known and the volume is calculated in the previous step, therefore, the density of the ball can be calculated using the following rule:
density = mass / volume

A proton and an electron enter perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field. The speed of the proton is twice the speed
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The force on the proton will be twice in comparison with the force experienced by the electron.

Explanation:

The magnetic force acting on the moving charge particle is perpendicular to the velocity as well as the magnetic field. The factors upon which the magnitude of the force is depending and proportional are as follows:

1 Magnitude of the charge particle.

2 Magnitude of the velocity of moving charge.

3 Magnitude of magnetic field.

4 Sine of angle between the velocity and magnetic field.

As far as direction is concerned, it can be find out by right hand rule.

Lets consider,

Speed of electron = Ve

Speed of proton vp= 2ve

Magnitude of the force F = qvBsin∅

Force acting  on electron Fe = qe.ve.Bsin∅

Force acting on proton Fp = qp.vp.Bsin∅

                                       Fp = -2 qe.ve.Bsin∅

                                       Fp = -2Fe

Negative sign shows the direction of Force on proton is opposite to the direction of force on electron.

A large truck collides head-on with a small compact car. During the collision: (A) the truck exerts a greater amount of force on
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

A The truck exerts greater force

Explanation:

During collision the truck exerts greater force due to its much larger mass coupled with the speed than the car exerts on it thereby damaging the car more

What is the word for the horizontal distance a projectile travels
hjlf
• t2<span>). Furthermore, since there is no horizontal acceleration, the horizontal distance traveled by the projectile each second is a constant value - the projectile travels a horizontal distance of </span>20 meters<span> each second. This is consistent with the initial horizontal velocity of </span>20 m<span>/s.

An apple is thrown across the cafeteria with a force of 10 N and at an acceleration of 6 m/s2. What is the mass of the apple? ..
Komok [63]

Answer:

Explanation:

F = m * a

The apple's acceleration is not influenced by the acceleration due to gravity for this question.  In real life it most certainly is influenced by gravity.

F = m * a

F = 10 Newtons.

a = 6 m/s^2

m = 10/6 = 1.66 kg. Mighty  large apple
