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

A block is thrown with an initial velocity of 30.0 m/s at an angle of 25.0o above the horizontal. What is the highest elevation
Serga [27]

The highest elevation reached by the ball in its trajectory is 16.4 m.

To find the answer, we need to know about the maximum height reached in a projectile.

What's the mathematical expression of the maximum height reached in a projectile motion?

  • The maximum height= U²× sin²(θ)/g
  • U= initial velocity, θ= angle of projectile with horizontal and g= acceleration due to gravity

What's the maximum height reached by a block that is thrown with an initial velocity of 30.0 m/s at an angle of 25° above the horizontal?

  • Here, U = 30.0 m/s and θ= 25°
  • Maximum height= 30²× sin²(25)/9.8

= 16.4m

Thus, we can conclude that the highest elevation reached by the ball in its trajectory is 16.4 m.

Force exerted by the bullet = mass * acceleration = 0.013 * 850 = 11.05 Newtons.

the rifle exerts same force in opposite direction so we have

11.05 = 3.5 * a
acceleration = 11.05 / 3.5 =  3.16 m /s^-2
