Answer:

$1.6726\cdot 10^{-27} kg$

Explanation:

The three main particles that make an atom are:

- Proton: its mass is $1.6726\cdot 10^{-27} kg$ , it carries an electric charge of +e ( $e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ ), and it is located in the nucles of the atom

- Neutron: its mass is $1.6749 \cdot 10^{-27}kg$ , it carries no electric charge, and it is also located in the nucleus of the atom

- Electron: its mass is $9.1094 \cdot 10^{-31}kg$ , it carries an electric charge of -e ( $e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ ), and it is located outside the nucleus

*please refer to photo* An electric field of magnitude 5.25 ✕ 10^5N/C points due south at a certain location. Find the magnitude

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Approximately $3.86\; {\rm N}$ (given that the magnitude of this charge is $-7.35\; {\rm \mu C}$ .)

Explanation:

If a charge of magnitude $q$ is placed in an electric field of magnitude $E$ , the magnitude of the electrostatic force on that charge would be $F = E\, q$ .

The magnitude of this charge is $q = 7.35\; {\rm \mu C}$ . Apply the unit conversion $1\; {\rm \mu C} = 10^{-6}\; {\rm C}$ :

$\begin{aligned} q &= 7.35\; {\mu C} \times \frac{10^{-6}\; {\rm C}}{1\; {\mu C}} = 7.35\times 10^{-6}\; {\rm C}\end{aligned}$ .

An electric field of magnitude $E = 5.25\times 10^{5}\; {\rm N \cdot C^{-1}}$ would exert on this charge a force with a magnitude of:

$\begin{aligned}F &= E\, q \\ &= 5.25 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm N \cdot C^{-1}} \times (-7.35\times 10^{-6}\; {\rm C}) \\ &\approx 3.86\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}$ .

Note that the electric charge in this question is negative. Hence, electrostatic force on this charge would be opposite in direction to the the electric field. Since the electric field points due south, the electrostatic force on this charge would point due north.

In still water, a boat averages 18 18 miles per hour. it takes the same amount of time to travel 16 miles 16 miles downstream,

Vladimir79 [104]

<span>The current is 6 miles per hour.
Let's create a few equations:
Traveling with the current:
(18 + c)*t = 16

Traveling against the current:
(18 - c)*t = 8

Let's multiply the 2nd equation by 2
(18 - c)*t*2 = 16

Now subtract the 1st equation from the equation we just doubled.
(18 - c)*t*2 = 16
(18 + c)*t = 16

(18 - c)*t*2 - (18 + c)*t = 0
Divide both sides by t
(18 - c)*2 - (18 + c) = 0

Now solve for c
(18 - c)*2 - (18 + c) = 0
36 - 2c - 18 - c = 0
36 - 2c - 18 - c = 0
18 - 3c = 0
18 = 3c
6 = c

So the current is 6 mph.
Let's verify that.
(18 + 6)*t = 16
24*t = 16
t = 16/24 = 2/3

(18 - 6)*t = 8
12*t = 8
t = 8/12 = 2/3

And it's verified.</span>
