<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 73 N

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Using the formula

2 T cos(30°) = w

Where; T is the tension on each string, while w is the weight of the box given by mg

Therefore;

W = 2Tcos 30°

    = 2 × 42 cos 30°

    = 84 cos 30°

    = 72.74

<u>   ≈ 73 N</u>

A mass spectrometer was used in the discovery of the electron. In the velocity selector, the electric and magnetic fields are se
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Radius of dee, r = 8 mm = 0.008 m

Electric field, e = 400 V/m

Magnetic field, B = 4.7 x 10^-4 T

mass of electron, m = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

charge of electron, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

(a) Let v is the speed of electrons.

v = \frac{Bqr}{m}

v = \frac{4.7\times 10^{-4}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.008}{9.1 \times 10^{-31}}

v = 661098.9 = 661099 m/s

(b)

\frac{e}{m}=\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

e / m = 1.76 x 10^14 C / kg

(c) Let K be the kinetic energy

K = 0.5 x mv²

K = 0.5 x 9.1 x 10^-31 x 661099 x 661099

K = 1.99 x 10^-19 J

K = 1.24 eV

So, the potential difference is

V = 1.24 V

(d) if the acceleration voltage is doubled

V = 2 x 1.24 = 2.48 V

So, Kinetic energy

K = 2.48 eV

K = 2.48 x 1.6 x 10^-19 = 3.968 x 10^-19 J

Let v is the speed

K = 0.5 x mv²

3.968 x 10^-19 = 0.5 x 9.1 x 10^-31 x v²

v = 933856.5 m/s

Let the new radius is r.

r=\frac{mv}{Bq}

r=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 933856.5}{4.7\times 10^{-4}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}

r = 0.0113 m = 1.13 cm

A 23.5 g piece of aluminum metal is initially at 100.0°C. It is dropped into a coffee cup-calorimeter containing 130.0 g of wate
vivado [14]

Answer: The molar heat capacity of aluminum is 25.3J/mol^0C

Explanation:

heat_{absorbed}=heat_{released}

As we know that,  

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]         .................(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

m_1 = mass of water = 130.0 g

m_2 = mass of aluminiunm = 23.5 g

T_{final} = final temperature = 26.0^oC=(273+26)K=299K

T_1 = temperature of water = 23^oC=(273+23)K=296K

T_2 = temperature of aluminium = 100^oC=273+100=373K

c_1 = specific heat of water= 4.184J/g^0C

c_2 = specific heat of aluminium= ?

Now put all the given values in equation (1), we get

130.0\times 4.184\times (299-296)=-[23.5\times c_2\times (299-373)]

c_2=0.938J/g^0C

Molar mass of Aluminium = 27 g/mol

Thus molar heat capacity =0.938J/g^0C\times 27g/mol=25.3J/mol^0C

Pls help me with this problem!!
Olenka [21]

Answer:

v = 19.6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of the circle, r = 5 m

The time period of the ball, T = 1.6s

We need to find the ball's tangential velocity.

The formula for the tangential velocity is given by :

v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{T}

Putting all the values in the above formula

v=\dfrac{2\pi \times 5}{1.6}\\\\v=19.6\ m/s

So, the tangential velocity of the ball is 19.6 m/s. Hence, the correct option is (c).
