You can tell because the line bends and the closer it is to horizontal or past horizontal it is more dense

On a typical clear day, the atmospheric electric field points downward and has a magnitude of approximately 103 N/C. Compare the
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a) FE = 0.764FG

b) a = 2.30 m/s^2

Explanation:

a) To compare the gravitational and electric force over the particle you calculate the following ratio:

\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{qE}{mg}              (1)

FE: electric force

FG: gravitational force

q: charge of the particle = 1.6*10^-19 C

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

E: electric field = 103N/C

m: mass of the particle = 2.2*10^-15 g = 2.2*10^-18 kg

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)}{(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}\\\\\frac{F_E}{F_G}=0.764

Then, the gravitational force is 0.764 times the electric force on the particle

b)

The acceleration of the particle is obtained by using the second Newton law:

F_E-F_G=ma\\\\a=\frac{qE-mg}{m}

you replace the values of all variables:

a=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)-(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}{2.2*10^{-18}kg}\\\\a=-2.30\frac{m}{s^2}

hence, the acceleration of the particle is 2.30m/s^2, the minus sign means that the particle moves downward.

Please help me with this physics prooblem
zaharov [31]

Take the missile's starting position to be the origin. Assuming the angles given are taken to be counterclockwise from the positive horizontal axis, the missile has position vector with components

x=v_0\cos20.0^\circ t+\dfrac12a_xt^2

y=v_0\sin20.0^\circ t+\dfrac12a_yt^2

The missile's final position after 9.20 s has to be a vector whose distance from the origin is 19,500 m and situated 32.0 deg relative the positive horizontal axis. This means the final position should have components

x_{9.20\,\mathrm s}=(19,500\,\mathrm m)\cos32.0^\circ

y_{9.20\,\mathrm s}=(19,500\,\mathrm m)\sin32.0^\circ

So we have enough information to solve for the components of the acceleration vector, a_x and a_y:

x_{9.20\,\mathrm s}=\left(1810\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\cos20.0^\circ(9.20\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12a_x(9.20\,\mathrm s)^2\implies a_x=21.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}

y_{9.20\,\mathrm s}=\left(1810\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\sin20.0^\circ(9.20\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12a_y(9.20\,\mathrm s)^2\implies a_y=110\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}

The acceleration vector then has direction \theta where

\tan\theta=\dfrac{a_y}{a_x}\implies\theta=79.2^\circ
