A proton is fired from very far away directly at a fixed particle with charge q = 1.82 ✕ 10−18 C. If the initial speed of the pr

oton is 3.5 ✕ 105 m/s, what is its distance of closest approach to the fixed particle? The mass of a proton is 1.67 ✕ 10−27 kg.

Answer:

   r = 2.56 10⁻¹² m

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use energy conservation

Starting point, proton too far

             Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

Final point. When proton is stop

             Emf = U = k q₁ q₂ / r

How energy is conserved

               Em₀ = Emf

              ½ m v² = k q₁ q₂ / r

              r = 2k q₁ q₂  / m v²

Let's calculate

             r = 2 8.99 10⁸ 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 1.82 10⁻¹⁸ / (1.67 10⁻²⁷ (3.5 10⁵)² )

             r = 2.56 10⁻¹² m

Given this graph plotting velocity versus time, estimate the acceleration of object A at points X and Y respectively.
swat32

Point X lies on a horizontal line. We can intuitively say that the slope of the graph at point X is 0, therefore the acceleration at point X is 0m/s²

Point Y lies on a downward slanting line. To calculate the slope of that line, let's apply this equation:

m = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

m = slope, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) correspond to the coordinates of the line's endpoints.

Given values:

(x₁, y₁) = (7, 5)

(x₂, y₂) = (12, 0)

Plug in and solve for m:

m = (0 - 5)/(12 - 7)

m = -1

The acceleration at point Y is -1m/s²

Choice A

MrRa [10]

Answer:

18.6012339739 A

Explanation:

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability = 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ H/m

L = Length of wire = 55 cm

N = Number of turns = 4000

I = Current

Magnetic field is given by

B=\dfrac{\mu_0NI}{L}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{BL}{\mu_0N}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{0.17\times 0.55}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 4000}\\\Rightarrow I=18.6012339739\ A

The current necessary to produce this field is 18.6012339739 A

What is the relationship between electromagnetic induction and generators?
lina2011 [118]
The EMF generated by Faraday's law of induction due to relative movement of a circuit and a magnetic field is the phenomenon underlying electrical generators. When a permanent magnet is moved relative to a conductor, or vice versa, an electromotive force is created.

What distance separates Earth and the Sun? A 300,000 km per second B Eight light-minutes C 149 million light-seconds D One light
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

B Eight light-minutes

Explanation:

In the case when the distance separated earth and the sun so here we orbit the sun for a 150 million km distance and the light moves would be 300,000 kilometers per second

Now divide this

= 150 million ÷ 300,000 kilometers per second

= 500 seconds

This 500 seconds represent 8 minutes and 20 seconds

Hence, option B is correct

A rotating merry-go-round makes one complete revolution in 4.0s a) what is the linear speed of a child seated 1.2 meters from th
lianna [129]

Answer:a) The linear speed of the rotating merry-go-round is 1.884 m/s.

b) The acceleration of the rotating merry-go-round  device is 2.95m/s^2.

Explanation:

a) linear speed of the device:

Distance =2\pi (r)

Child seated 1.2 meters from the center, which means that radius ,r = 1.2 meters

Time taken to complete one revolution = 4.0 seconds

\text{Linear speed}=v=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{2\pi r}{t}=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 1.2 m}{4.0 s}=\frac{7.536 m}{4.0 s}=1.884 m/s

The linear speed of the rotating merry-go-round is 1.884 m/s.

b) Acceleration

Linear velocity ,v = 1.884 m/s

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

=\frac{1.884 m/s\times 1.884m/s}{1.2 m}=2.95m/s^2

The acceleration of the rotating merry-go-round  device is 2.95m/s^2.
