Scalar quantities have only magnitude. example temperature, distance.

Vector quantities have magnitude and direction.Example force, velocity.

You can say "I applied a force p\of 3 newtons to the left" but you can't say I added 32 Fahrenheit to the left

An electron in the beam of a TV picture tube is accelerated through a potential difference of 2.00 kv.?It then passes into a mag
Stells [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the field is 8.384×10^-4 T.

Explanation:

Now, i start solving this question:

First, convert the potential difference(V) 2 kv to 2000 v.

As, we have the final formula is qvB = mv^2/r. It came from the centripetal force and the magnetic force and we know that these two forces are equal. When dealing with centripetal motion use the radius and not the diameter so

r = 0.36/2 = 0.18 m.

As, we are dealing with an electron so we know its mass is 9.11*10^-31 kg and its charge (q) is 1.6*10^-18 C.

We can solve for its electric potential energy by using ΔU = qV and we know potential energy initial is equal to kinetic energy final so ΔU = ΔKE and kinetic energy is equal to 1/2mv^2 J.

qV = 1/2mv^2

(1.6*10^-19C)(2000V) = (1/2)(9.11*10^-31kg) v^2

v = 2.65×10^7 m/s.

These all above steps we have done only for velocity(v) because in the final formula we have 'v' in it. So, now we substitute the all values in that formula and will find out the magnitude of the field:

qvB = mv^2/r

qB = mv/r

B = mv/qr

B = (9.11*10^-31 kg)(2.65×10^7 m/s) / (1.6*10^-19 C)(0.18 m)

Hence, B = 8.384*10^-4 T.

If energy is absorbed because chemical reaction is ______.
melomori [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The reaction is <u>D. endothermic</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Absorption or need of energy from surroundings is called endothermic process. Heat is the major common form of energy which is absorbed in this process.  In this process, enthaply of reactant is less than the product.

For example, an ice cube placed in the hand for some time starts to melt and it takes energy in the form of heat from the hand. This process always requires energy because of the breaking of existing and formation of new chemical bonds.

Starting from rest a model rocket accelerates upwards at 24 m/s2. How fast will it be moving after it has traveled 192 meters?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: 96 m/s

Explanation:

Given information

Acceleration of rocket = 24 m/s2

Distance travelled by rocket = 192 meters.

To be calculated

Velocity of rocket at 192 meters = ?

Using 2nd equation of motion, the difference of square of final and initial velocity is equal to the 2 times the product of acceleration and distance.

v2 – u2 = 2as

v2 – 0 = 2 * 24 * 192 (intial velocity is 0, so u = 0)

v2 = 9216

v =\sqrt9216

v = 96 m/s
