A parallel plate capacitor creates a uniform electric field of and its plates are separated by . A proton is placed at rest next
zalisa [80]

Complete Question

A parallel plate capacitor creates a uniform electric field of 5 x 10^4 N/C and its plates are separated by 2 x 10^{-3}'m. A proton is placed at rest next to the positive plate and then released and moves toward the negative plate. When the proton arrives at the negative plate, what is its speed?

Answer:

V=1.4*10^5m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Electric field B=1.5*10N/C

Distance d=2 x 10^{-3}

At negative plate

Generally the equation for Velocity is mathematically given by

V^2=2as

Therefore

V^2=\frac{2*e_0E*d}{m}

V^2=\frac{2*1.6*10^{-19}(5*10^4)*2 * 10^{-3}}{1.67*10^{-28}}

V=\sqrt{19.2*10^9}

V=1.4*10^5m/s

HELP ASAP <br> Describe when contact metamorphism occurs?
diamong [38]

Contact metamorphism occurs adjacent to igneous intrusions and results from high temperatures associated with the igneous intrusion. Since only a small area surrounding the intrusion is heated by the magma, metamorphism is restricted to the zone surrounding the intrusion, called a metamorphic or contact aureole

vivado [14]

Answer: F = ma,

Explanation:

the most famous equation in physics, establishing an equivalence between energy and mass. But is this the most important equation in physics? Knowledgeable scientists will tell you no. The most important equation in physics is F = ma, also known as Newton's second law of mechanics.

Draw a schematic diagram of a circuit consisting of a battery of five 2 V cells, a 5 ohm resistor, a 10 ohm resistor, a 15 ohm r
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

  • Current = 0.33 A

Explanation:

  • For diagram refer the attachment.

It is given that five cells of 2V are connected in series, so total voltage of the battery:

\dashrightarrow \: \:  \sf V = 2 \times 5 = 10 V

Three resistor of 5\Omega, 10\Omega, 15\Omega are connected in Series, so the net resistance:

\dashrightarrow \: \: \sf R_{n} = R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3}

\dashrightarrow \: \:  \sf R = 5 + 10 + 15

{ \pink{\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: { \underbrace{R = 30 \:  \Omega}}}}

According to ohm's law:

\dashrightarrow  \sf\: \: V = IR

\dashrightarrow  \sf \: \: I = \dfrac{V}{R}

On substituting resultant voltage (V) as 10 V and resultant resistant, as 30 {\pmb{\sf{\Omega}}} we get:

\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: I = \dfrac{10V}{30\Omega}

{ \pink{\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: { \underbrace{I = 0.33 A}}}}

\thereforeThe electric current passing through the above circuit when the key is closed will be <u>0.33 A</u>
