An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor. The charge per unit area on each plate is

σ = 1.99 x 10^-7 C/m^2, and the plate separation is 1.69 x 10^-2 m. How fast is the electron moving just before it reaches the positive plate?

Answer:

v = 1.15*10^{7} m/s

Explanation:

given data:

charge/ unit area= \sigma = 1.99*10^{-7} C/m^2

plate seperation = 1.69*10^{-2} m

we know that

electric field btwn the plates isE = \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon}

force acting on charge is F = q E

Work done by charge q id\Delta X =\frac{ q\sigma \Delta x}{\epsilon}

this work done is converted into kinectic enerrgy

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =\frac{ q\sigma \Delta x}{\epsilon}

solving for v

v = \sqrt{\frac{2q\Delta x}{\epsilon m}

\epsilon = 8.85*10^{-12} Nm2/C2

v = \sqrt{\frac{2 1.6*10^{-19}1.99*10^{-7}*1.69*10^{-2}}{8.85*10^{-12} *9.1*10^{-31}}

v = 1.15*10^{7} m/s

(2 points) A pair of students measure the intensity of light from a desklamp in Sec. 4.5 of the experiment. When the detector is
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Intensity at 45 cm will be 0.2283 volt

Explanation:

We have given that intensity of signal measured by the detector is 0.74 volt at a distance of 25 cm

We know that intensity of signal is given by I=\frac{s}{r^2} , here s is strength of light and r is distance

So 0.74=\frac{s}{{25}^2}

s=462.5

In second case

Intensity is given by I=\frac{s}{r^2}

So I=\frac{462.5}{45^2}=0.2283volt

What specific behavioral effects of your upbringing can you identify in yourself?
Rudiy27

Answer:

Respect for elders, Honesty, and Reservedness

Explanation:

As a child, due to the nature of my father's job, I grew up in a barrack where people of different ethnic and cultural backgrounds lived. My father is a highly disciplined man who give great values to behavioral values such as respect, honesty and reservedness. His soldier friends who are equally disciplined instill the same values in their wards. They taught us the importance of possessing these great attributes and ensured that there was compliance.

The upbringing I had as a child made me see these three attributes as a lifestyle and they now have an enormous effect in my daily life.

An atom that has only one electron in its valence electron shell is ______ chemically reactive?
umka2103 [35]

The valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost electron shell of an atom.

Explanation:

The number of electrons in an atom's outermost valence shell governs its bondingbehaviour.

That is why elements whose atoms have the same number of valence electrons are grouped together in the Periodic Table.

Generally, elements in Groups 1, 2, and 13 to 17 tend to react to form a closed shell, corresponding to the electron configuration <span><span>s2</span><span>p6</span></span>.

This tendency is called the octet rule, because the bonded atoms have eight valence electrons.

The volume of the nucleus as compared to the volume of the atom is​
velikii [3]

The nucleus of an atom is about 10-15 m in size; this means it is about 10-5 (or 1/100,000) of the size of the whole atom. A good comparison of the nucleus to the atom is like a pea in the middle of a racetrack. (10-15 m is typical for the smaller nuclei; larger ones go up to about 10 times that.)

A 500 g model rocket is on a cart that is rolling to the right at a speed of 3.0 m/s . The rocket engine, when it is fired, exer
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The rocket has to be launched 8 m from the hoop

Explanation:

Let's analyze this problem, the rocket is on a car that moves horizontally, so the rocket also has the same speed as the car; The initial horizontal rocket speed is (v₀ₓ = 3.0 m/s).

On the other hand, when starting the engines we have a vertical force, which creates an acceleration in the vertical axis, let's use Newton's second law to find this vertical acceleration

    F -W = m a

    a = (F-mg) / m

    a = F/m  -g

    a = 7.0/0.500  - 9.8

    a = 4.2 m/s²

We see that we have a positive acceleration and that is what we are going to use in the parabolic motion equations

Let's look for the time it takes for the rocket to reach the height (y = 15m) of the hoop, when the rocket fires its initial vertical velocity is zero (I'm going = 0)

    y = v_{oy} t + ½ a t²

    y = 0 + ½ a t²

    t = √ 2y/a

    t = √( 2 15 / 4.2)

    t = 2.67 s

This time is also the one that takes in the horizontal movement, let's calculate how far it travels

    x = v₀ₓ t

    x = 3 2.67

    x = 8 m

The rocket has to be launched 8 m from the hoop
