dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}\ C

1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

1.6351501669\times 10^{-9}\ C

Explanation:

r = Radius

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

Electric field is given by

E=-\dfrac{kq}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow q=-\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow q=-\dfrac{1610\times 0.1^2}{8.99\times 10^9}\\\Rightarrow q=-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

The charge is -1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

Q+q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}-q\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{120\times 0.35^2}{8.99\times 10^9}-(-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9})\\\Rightarrow Q=3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}\ C

The charge is 3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}\ C

The charge inside will have the polarity changed

q=+1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\ C

Outside the charge will be

3.4260289211\times 10^{-9}-1.7908787542\times 10^{-9}\\ =1.6351501669\times 10^{-9}\ C

An electron and a second particle both move in circles perpendicular to a uniformmagnetic field. The mass of the second particle
Katarina [22]

Answer:

The change on the second particle is 2.93\times 10^{-16}\ C.

Explanation:

The period of revolution of the particle in the magnetic field is given by the formula as follows :

T=\dfrac{2\pi m}{Bq}

It is given that the magnetic field is uniform. The mass of the second particle is the same as that of a proton but thecharge of this particle is different from that of a proton.

m_s=m_p

If both particles take the same amount of time to go once around their respective circles. So,

T_e=T_s\\\\\dfrac{2\pi m_e}{Bq_e}=\dfrac{2\pi m_s}{Bq_s}\\\\\dfrac{m_e}{q_e}=\dfrac{m_p}{q_s}\\\\q_s=\dfrac{m_pq_e}{m_e}\\\\q_s=\dfrac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}\\\\q_s=2.93\times 10^{-16}\ C

So, the change on the second particle is 2.93\times 10^{-16}\ C.

In this problem, you will calculate the location of the center of mass for the Earth-Moon system, and then you will calculate th
Radda [10]

Answer:

a) Option D is correct.

The center of mass between the Eartg and the moon is inside the Earth.

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the moon = (7.35×10²²) kg

Mass of the Earth = (6.00×10²⁴) kg

Mass of the Sun = (2.00×10³⁰) kg

Distance between the Earth and the moon = (3.80×10⁵) km

Distance between the Earth and the Sun = (1.50×10⁸) km

With the assumption that all.of the bodies being considered are on the same straight line on the x-axis,

Note that Centre of mass is given as

C.M = (Σmx)/(Σm)

For the Earth-moon system, let the earth be x=0, then the moon is at x = (3.80 × 10 5) km away.

C.M = (Σmx)/(Σm)

Σmx = (6.00×10²⁴)) × (0) + (7.35×10²²) × (3.80×10⁵) = (2.793 × 10²⁸) kg.km

Σm = (6.00×10²⁴) + (7.35×10²²) = (6.0735 × 10²⁴) kg

CM = (2.793 × 10²⁸) ÷ (6.0735 × 10²⁴)

CM = (4.60 × 10³) km = 4600 km

This means the centre of mass is 4600 km from the Earth.

The Earth's radius = 6378 km

Hence, the centre if mass is inside the Earth.

Hope this Helps!!!
