(a) Find the frequency of revolution of an electron with an energy of 114 eV in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 46.7 µT. (
stira [4]

Answer:

(a)  1.3 x 10^6 Hz

(b) 76.73 cm

Explanation:

(a)

the formula for the frequency is given by

f = B q / 2 π m

where, B be the strength of magnetic field, q be the charge on one electron, m is the mass of one electron.

B = 46.7 micro tesla = 46.7 x 10^-6 T

q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

m = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

f = (46.7 x 10^-6 x 1.6 x 10^-19) / (2 x 3.14 x 9.1 x 10^-31) = 1.3 x 10^6 Hz

(b) K = 114 eV = 114 x 1.6 x 10^-19 J = 182.4 x 10^-19 J

K = 1/2 mv^2

182.4 x 10^-19 = 0.5 x 9.1 x 10^-31 x v^2

v = 6.3 x 10^6 m/s

r = m v / B q

Where, r be the radius of circular path

r = (9.1 x 10^-31 x 6.3 x 10^6) / (46.7 x 10^-6 x 1.6 x 10^-19)

r = 0.7673 m = 76.73 cm

A player kicks a football from ground level with a velocity of 26.2m/s at an angle of 34.2° above the horizontal. How far back f
Amanda [17]

For the ball to go straight into the goal, the kicker needs to be no more than 6.54 meters away from the goal.

For the ball to arc into the goal, the kicker needs to be between 58.5 and 65.1 meters away from the goal.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

How long does it take for the ball to reach the goal?

Let the distance between the kicker and the goal be x meters.

Horizontal velocity of the ball will always be 26.2\times\cos{34.2\textdegree} until it lands if there's no air resistance.

The ball will arrive at the goal in \displaystyle \frac{x}{26.2\times\cos{34.2\textdegree}} seconds after it leaves the kicker.

What will be the height of the ball when it reaches the goal?

Consider the equation

\displaystyle h(t) = -\frac{1}{2}\cdot g\cdot t^{2} + v_{0,\;\text{vertical}} \cdot t + h_0.

For this soccer ball:

  • g = 9.81\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2},
  • v_{0,\;\text{vertical}} = 26.2\times \sin{34.2\textdegree{}}\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2},
  • h_0 = 0 since the player kicks the ball "from ground level."

\displaystyle t=\frac{x}{26.2\times\cos{34.2\textdegree}}

when the ball reaches the goal.

\displaystyle h= - 9.81 \times \frac{x^2}{(26.2\times\cos{34.2\textdegree})^2} + (26.2 \times \sin{34.2\textdegree})\times\frac{x}{26.2\times\cos{34.2\textdegree}} \\\phantom{h} = -\frac{9.81}{(26.2\times\cos{34.2\textdegree})^2}\cdot x^{2} + \frac{\sin{34.2\textdegree}}{\cos{34.2\textdegree}}\cdot x.

Solve this quadratic equation for x, x > 0.

  • x = 65.1 meters when h = 0 meters.
  • x = 6.54 or 58.5 meters when h = 4 meters.

In other words,

  • For the ball to go straight into the goal, the kicker needs to be no more than 6.54 meters away from the goal.
  • For the ball to arc into the goal, the kicker needs to be between 58.5 and 65.1 meters away from the goal.

Why is lighting visible before thunder is heard
Tamiku [17]

Answer: Lightning is mostly light and electricity, this light that is hitting is going at a rate of 299,792.458 km per second (or 186,282 miles per second) this is so much compared to sound which only travels at about 761 mph (or approximately 332 meters per second). Fun fact: The lightening you are seeing is that coming back to the cloud because the process happens so fast.

Two electric charges are moved so that they are twice as far apart as they had originally been. Is the force they experience fro
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

The force that two particle experience is inversely proportional to the sqare of the distance, this is:

F \  \alpha \  \frac{1}{D^{2}} for a distance D

If we move them so that D is doubled:

\frac{1}{2^{2}.D^{2}  }= \frac{1}{4} \eq  \frac{1}{.D^{2}  } \eq

Then the force they experience is one fourth of the original.
