You drop a steel ball bearing, with a radius of 2.40 mm, into a beaker of honey. Note that honey has a viscosity of 6.00 Pa/s an
Stells [14]

Answer:

The “terminal speed” of the ball bearing is 5.609 m/s

Explanation:

Radius of the steel ball R = 2.40 mm

Viscosity of honey η = 6.0 Pa/s

\text { Viscosity has Density } \sigma=1360 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}

\text { Steel has a density } \rho=7800 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}

\left.\mathrm{g}=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} \text { (g is referred to as the acceleration of gravity. Its value is } 9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} \text { on Earth }\right)

While calculating the terminal speed in liquids where density is high the stokes law is used for viscous force and buoyant force is taken into consideration for effective weight of the object. So the expression for terminal speed (Vt)

V_{t}=\frac{2 \mathrm{R}^{2}(\rho-\sigma) \mathrm{g}}{9 \eta}

Substitute the given values to find "terminal speed"

\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}=\frac{2 \times 0.0024^{2}(7800-1360) 9.8}{9 \times 6}

\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}=\frac{0.0048 \times 6440 \times 9.8}{54}

\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}=\frac{302.9376}{54}

\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{t}}=5.609 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

The “terminal speed” of the ball bearing is 5.609 m/s

An electron enters the gap between the plates of a capacitor at the center of the gap traveling parallel to theplates at 2.0 x 1
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

How far will the electron travel beforehitting a plate is 248.125mm

Explanation:

Applying Gauss' law:

Electric Field E = Charge density/epsilon nought

Where charge density=1.0 x 10^-6C/m2 & epsilon nought= 8.85× 10^-12

Therefore E = 1.0 x 10^-6/8.85× 10^-12

E= 1.13×10^5N/C

Force on electron F=qE

Where q=charge of electron=1.6×10^-19C

Therefore F=1.6×10^-19×1.13×10^5

F=1.808×10^-14N

Acceleration on electron a = Force/Mass

Where Mass of electron = 9.10938356 × 10^-31

Therefore a= 1.808×10^-14 /9.11 × 10-31

a= 1.985×10^16m/s^2

Time spent between plate = Distance/Speed

From the question: Distance=1cm=0.01m and speed = 2×10^6m/s^2

Therefore Time = 0.01/2×10^6

Time =5×10^-9s

How far the electron would travel S =ut+ at^2/2 where u=0

S= 1.985×10^16×(5×10^-9)^2/2

S=24.8125×10^-2m

S=248.125mm
