Mass does not affect the pendulum's swing. The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.
I’m not going to church tomorrow or Friday I don’t want to go go back up
In order to answer these questions, we need to know the charges on
the electron and proton, and then we need to know the electron's mass.
I'm beginning to get the creepy feeling that, in return for the generous
5 points, you also want me to go and look these up so I can use them
in calculations ... go and collect my own straw to make the bricks with,
as it were.
Ok, Rameses:
Elementary charge . . . . . 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ coulomb
negative on the electron
plussitive on the proton
Electron rest-mass . . . . . 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg
a). The force between two charges is
F = (9 x 10⁹) Q₁ Q₂ / R²
= (9 x 10⁹ m/farad) (-1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹m)²
= ( -2.304 x 10⁻²⁸) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)²
= 8.05 x 10⁻⁸ Newton .
b). Centripetal acceleration =
v² / r .
A = (2.03 x 10⁶)² / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)
= 7.7 x 10²² m/s² .
That's an enormous acceleration ... about 7.85 x 10²¹ G's !
More than enough to cause the poor electron to lose its lunch.
It would be so easy to check this work of mine ...
First I calculated the force, then I calculated the centripetal acceleration.
I didn't use either answer to find the other one, and I didn't use " F = MA "
either.
I could just take the ' F ' that I found, and the 'A' that I found, and the
electron mass that I looked up, and mash the numbers together to see
whether F = M A .
I'm going to leave that step for you. Good luck !
Answer:
Explanation:
initial momentum = .36 kg.m.s⁻¹
negative impulse = force x time = .02 x 12 = .24 kg.m.s⁻¹
final momentum - initial momentum = impulse
final momentum = initial momentum + impulse
= .36 - .24
= .12 kg.m.s⁻¹
Answer:
toward the center
Explanation:
Before answering, let's remind the first two Newton Laws:
1) An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object moving at constant velocity tends to continue its motion at constant velocity, unless acted upon a net force
2) An object acted upon a net force F experiences an acceleration a according to the equation

where m is the mass of the object.
In this problem, we have an object travelling at constant speed in a circular path. The fact that the trajectory of the object is circular means that the direction of motion of the object is constantly changing: this means that its velocity is changing, so it has an acceleration. And therefore, a net force is acting on it. The force that keeps the object travelling in the circular path is called centripetal force, and it is directed towards the center of the circle (because it prevents the object from continuing its motion straight away).
So, the correct answer is
toward the center
