<h3>Answer:</h3>

80 kgm/s

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Mass of the Canoe is 32 kg
  • Speed of the Canoe is 2.5 m/s

We are required to calculate the momentum of the Canoe?

  • We need to know that momentum is the product of mass of an object and its speed.
  • Therefore;

Momentum = Mass × speed

Therefore;

Momentum = 32 kg × 2.5 m/s

                   = 80 Kgm/s

Thus, the momentum of the Canoe is 80 kgm/s.

Calculate the radius of the orbit of a proton moving at 2.2x10^6 m/s in a magnetic field 0.7 T where v and B are perpendicular.
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

3.28 cm

Explanation:

To solve this problem, you need to know that a magnetic field B perpendicular to the movement of a proton that moves at a velocity v will cause a Force F experimented by the particle that is orthogonal to both the velocity and the magnetic Field. When a particle experiments a Force orthogonal to its velocity, the path it will follow will be circular. The radius of said circle can be calculated using the expression:

r = \frac{mv}{qB}

Where m is the mass of the particle, v is its velocity, q is its charge and B is the magnitude of the magnetic field.

The mass and  charge of a proton are:

m = 1.67 * 10^-27 kg

q = 1.6 * 10^-19 C

So, we get that the radius r will be:

r =  \frac{1.67 * 10^-27 kg * 2.2*10^6 m/s}{1.6 * 10^-19 C* 0.7 T} = 0.0328 m, or 3.28  cm.

What is the speed of a wave in (m/s) with a 5 meter wavelength and a period of 20 seconds?
arlik [135]

Answer: 0.25 m/s

Explanation:  Speed = wavelengt · frequency  

v = λf   and frequency is 1/period  f = 1/T

Then v = λ/T = 5 m / 20 s = 0.25 m/s
