A proton, traveling with a velocity of 3.7 × 106 m/s due east, experiences a magnetic force that has a maximum magnitude of 5.4

× 10-14 n and direction of due south. what are the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field causing the force? if the field is up, then enter a number greater than zero. if the field is down, then enter a number less than zero.

The magnetic force (Lorentz force) experienced by the proton in the magnetic field is given by
F=qvBsin\theta=qvB
since \theta = 90^{\circ}, because the velocity v and the force F in this problem are perpendicular, and so also the angle \theta between the velocity and the magnetic field B should be 90^{\circ}.

Let's find the magnitude of the magnetic field; this is given by
B= \frac{F}{qv}= \frac{5.4\cdot 10^{-14}N}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C \cdot 3.7\cdot 10^6 m/s}=0.091 T

To understand the direction, let's use the right-hand rule:
-index finger: velocity
- middle finger: magnetic field
- thumb: force

Since the velocity (index) points east and the force (thumb) points south, then the magnetic field (middle finger) points downwards. So we write:
B = -0.091 T

Which process requires more energy: completely vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at 1 atm pressure or completely vaporiz
Lilit [14]
The correct answer would be the first option. The process that would need more energy would be vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at a pressure of 1 atmosphere. This can be seen from the latent heat of vaporization of each system. For the saturated water at 1 atm, the latent heat is equal to 40.7 kJ per mole while, at 8 atm, the latent heat is equal to 36.4 kJ per mole. The latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat needed in order to vaporize a specific amount of substance without any change in the temperature. As we can observe, more energy is needed by the liquid water at 1 atm.

A dielectric-filled parallel-plate capacitor has plate area A = 30.0 cm2 , plate separation d = 9.00 mm and dielectric constant
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

9.96\cdot 10^{-10}J

Explanation:

The capacitance of the parallel-plate capacitor is given by

C=\epsilon_0 k \frac{A}{d}

where

ϵ0 = 8.85x10-12 C2/N.m2 is the vacuum permittivity

k = 3.00 is the dielectric constant

A=30.0 cm^2 = 30.0\cdot 10^{-4}m^2 is the area of the plates

d = 9.00 mm = 0.009 m is the separation between the plates

Substituting,

C=(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)(3.00 ) \frac{30.0\cdot 10^{-4} m^2}{0.009 m}=8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F

Now we can calculate the energy of the capacitor, given by:

U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2

where

C is the capacitance

V = 15.0 V is the potential difference

Substituting,

U=\frac{1}{2}(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F)(15.0 V)^2=9.96\cdot 10^{-10}J

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.
