Answer:

a)E=2.88*10^{-13}N/C

b)E=1.44*10^{-13}N/C

c)F=4.61*10^{-32}N

Explanation:

The definition of a electric field produced by a point charge is:

E=k*q/r^2

<u>a)Electric Field due to the alpha particle:</u>

E=k*q_{alpha}/r^2=9*10^9*3.2*10^{-19}/(100)^2=2.88*10^{-13}N/C

<u>b)Electric Field  due to the electron:</u>

E=k*q_{electron}/r^2=9*10^9*1.6*10^{-19}/(100})^2=1.44*10^{-13}N/C

<u>c)Electric Force on the alpha particle, on the electron:</u>

The alpha particle and electron feel the same force magnitude but with opposite direction:

F=k*q_{electron}*q_{alpha}/r^2=9*10^9*1.6*10^{-19}*3.2*10^{-19}/(100)^2=4.61*10^{-32}N

Indigenous people sometimes cooked in watertight baskets by placing enough hot rocks into the water to bring it to a boil. What
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

The rock has a mass of 4.02 kg

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of the rock = TO BE DETERMINED

Temperature of the rock = 500 °C

Mass of the water  =4.24 kg

⇒ loses 0.044kg as vapor

Initial temperature of the water = 29°C

Final temperature = 100°C

Specific heat of rock = 0.20 kcal/kg °C

Specific heat of water = 1kcal/kg°C

Latent heat of vaporization = 539 kcal/kg

<u>Step 2:</u> formules

Qlost,rock + Qgained,water = 0

Qtotal,water = Qwater +Qvapor

<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate Qvapor

Qvapor = mass of vapor * Latent heat of vapor

Qvapor = 0.044kg * 539 kcal/kg = 23.716 kcal

<u>Step 4: </u>Calculate Qwater

Qwater = mass of water * specific heat * Δtemperature

Qwater = 4.196 kg * 1kcal/kg°C *( 100-29)

Qwater = 297.916 kcal

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate Qwater,total

Qwater,total = Qwater + Qvapor

Qwater,total = 23.716 kcal + 297.916 = 321.632 kcal

<u>Step 6</u>: Calculate Qrock

Qrock = mass of rock * specific heat rock * Δtemperature

Qrock = mass of rock * 0.20 kcal/kg°C * (100-500)

Qrock = mass of rock * -80 kcal/kg

<u>Step 7:</u> Calculate mass of rock

Qlost,rock + Qgained,water = 0

Qlost,rock = -Qgained,water

mass of rock * -80 kcal/kg = -321.632 kcal

mass of rock = 4.02 kg

The rock has a mass of 4.02 kg

The Earth and Moon are separated by about 4.0 10^6 m. Suppose Mars is [{MathJax fullWidth='false' 2.9 \times 10^{11} }] m from E
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

a) α=7.9x10^-4 rad

b) θ=1.12x10^-4 rad

c) The Earth and the Moon cannot be seen without a telescope.

Explanation:

In this exercise we will use the concepts of angular resolution, which depends on both the wavelength of the rays and the diameter of the eye or lens on the meter. Its unit of measure is the radian. The attached image shows the solution step by step.
