Answer:

6.91 x 10^-23 kg m/s

Explanation:

velocity, v = 0.965 c

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

The formula for the momentum is given by

p=\frac{mv}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

p=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 0.965\times 3\times 10^{8}}{\sqrt{1-0.965^{2}}}

p = 6.91 x 10^-23 kg m/s

Thus, the momentum of electron is 6.91 x 10^-23 kg m/s.

Answer:

1.0047\times 10^{-21}kg.m/s

Explanation:

Relativistic momentum is given by:

p=\gamma m u

where, \gamma=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^2}{c^2}}}

Speed of the electron, u = 0.965 c (given)

Mass of the electron, m = 9.1 ×10⁻³¹ kg

\gamma=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.965c)^2}{c^2}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{0.2622}}=3.81

p=3.81\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 0.965\times 3\times 10^8=1.0047\times 10^{-21}kg.m/s

What is coulomb law​
MrRa [10]

Answer:Coulomb's law states that: The magnitude of the electrostatic force of attraction or repulsion between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Explanation:Coulomb's law, or Coulomb's inverse-square law, is an experimental law of physics that quantifies the amount of force between two stationary, electrically charged particles. The electric force between charged bodies at rest is conventionally called electrostatic force or Coulomb force

How do you find the net force acting on an object?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

C. Add all the force vectors

Explanation:

The net force acting on an object is the vector sum of all the  forces on the object.

Remember, Newton's first law tells us a body at rest will remain at rest or that in uniform motion will continue in motion unless acted by unbalanced forces.These unbalanced forces act in all direction towards the body thus to get the net force you require a summation of all these force with respect to their magnitudes and directions.

For example a force of 3N towards the East direction acting on a body and another force of 2N towards the West direction on the same body will generate a net force of 1N towards the East direction.
