Answer:

(a) 1000 N/C

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of electron, K = 1.6 x 10^-17 J

distance, d = 10 cm = 0.1 m

Let the potential difference is V and the electric field is E.

(a) The relation between the kinetic energy and the potential difference is

K = e V

V = K / e

Where, e be the electronic charge = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

V = \frac{1.6\times 10^{-17}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

V = 100 V

The relation between the electric field and the potential difference is given by

V = E x d

100 = E x 0.1

E = 1000 N/C

(b) The force acting on the electron, F = q E

where q be the charge on electron

So, F = -e x E

It means the direction of electric field and the force are both opposite to each other.

The direction of electric field and the force on electron is shown in the diagram.

answer A vertical spring stretches 3.4 cm when a 8-g object is hung from it. The object is replaced with a block of mass 26 g th
victus00 [196]

Answer:

0.695s

Explanation:

From Hooke's law, the restoring force is given has

F = -ky .......1

Where F is the force, y is the spring displacement and k force constant of the spring.

Also recall,

F=mg ............ 2

Where m is the mass of object, g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Equating 1 and 2

Ky = mg

Given that g=9.8m/s2 , y is 3.4cm and g is 8g

K×3.4/100m =8/1000kg × 9.8m/s2

K= ( 0.008kg × 9.8m/s2 ) ÷ 0.034

K= 0.0784÷0.035

K=2.24N/m

Mass ofvthe second object is 25g =0.025kg

Period of oscillation T

T=2π√m/k

T=2×3.142√0.025/2.24

T=6.284√0.0111

T=0.659seconds

You are driving down the highway late one night at 20 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 35m in front of you. Your reaction tim
8090 [49]

Answer:

- Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 20 m

- The time required for you to stop once you press the brakes = less than 5 s in order not to hit the deer.

Explanation:

Using the equations of motion,

In the 0.5 s reaction time, we need to first calculate how far he has travelled in that time.

a = 0 m/s² (Since the car is travelling at constant velocity)

x = ?

Initial velocity = u = 20 m/s

x = ut + at²/2

x = 20×0.5 + 0 = 10 m

From that moment,

a = - 10 m/s²

u = initial velocity at the start of the deceleration = 10 m/s

v = final velocity = 0 m/s

x = ?

v² = u² + 2ax

0² = 10² + 2(-10)(x)

20x = 100

x = 5 m

Total distance travelled from when the deer stepped onto the road = 10 + 5 = 15 m

Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 35 - 15 = 20 m

b) To determine the time required to stop once you step on the brakes

u = 10 m/s

t = ?

v = 0 m/s²

x = distance from when the brake was stepped on to the deer = 35 - 10 = 25 m

x = (u + v)t/2

25 = (10 + 0)t/2

10t = 50

t = 5 s

Meaning the time required to stop once you step on the brakes is less than 5s.

A negative charge is moved from point A to point B along an equipotential surface. Which of the following statements must be tru
elena-s [515]

Answer:

C) No work is required to move the negative charge from point A to point B.

Explanation:

An equipotential surface is defined as a surface connecting all the points at the same potential.

Therefore, when a charge moves along an equipotential surface, it moves between points at same potential.

The work done when moving a charge is given by

W=q\Delta V

where

q is the charge

\Delta V is the potential difference between the initial and final point of motion of the charge

However, the charge in this problem moves along an equipotential surface: this means that the potential does not change, so

\Delta V=0

And so, the work done is also zero.

In a compression wave, particles in the medium move
nikdorinn [45]

in the same direction as the wave

Explanation:

In a compression wave, the particles in the medium moves in the same direction as the wave source.

A wave is generally defined as a disturbance that transmits energy.

  • There are two types of waves based on the direction through which they are propagated.
  • Transverse waves are directed perpendicularly in the direction of propagation.
  • Examples are electromagnetic waves.
  • Longitudinal waves are parallel to their source. Examples are sound waves, p-waves.
  • They are made up of series of rarefaction and compression.
