Answer:

0.002 N/C

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Charge of object, q = 5 mC = 5 * 10^{-3} C

Acceleration of object, a = 0.005 m/s^2

Mass of object, m = 2.0 g

The Electric field exerts a particular force on the object, causing it to accelerate (Electrostatic force).

We know that Electrostatic force, F, is given in terms of Electric field, E, as:

F = qE

This means that the object exerts a force of -qE on the Electric force (Action with equal and opposite reaction).

The object also has a force, F, due to its acceleration a. This force is the product of its mass and acceleration. Mathematically:

F = ma

Equating the two forces of the object, we get:

-qE = ma

=> E = \frac{-ma}{q}

Solving for E, we have:

E = \frac{-2 * 10^{-3} * 0.005}{5 * 10^{-3}} \\\\\\E = -0.002 N/C

The magnitude will be:

|E| = |-0.002| N/C = 0.002 N/C

The electric field has a magnitude of 0.002 N/C.

Answer:

r=5.278\times 10^{-4}\ m

Explanation:

Given that:

  • magnetic field intensity, B=0.07\ T
  • kinetic energy of electron, KE=1.2\ eV= 1.2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ J= 1.92\times 10^{-19}\ J
  • we have mass of electron, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

<em>Now, form the mathematical expression of Kinetic Energy:</em>

KE= \frac{1}{2} m.v^2

1.92\times 10^{-19}=0.5\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times v^2

v^2=4.2198\times 10^{11}

v=6.496\times 10^6\ m.s^{-1}

<u>from the relation of magnetic and centripetal forces we have the radius as:</u>

r=\frac{m.v}{q.B}

r=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 6.496\times 10^6 }{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.07}

r=5.278\times 10^{-4}\ m

Suppose a ball is dropped from shoulder height, falls, makes a perfectly elastic collision with the floor, and rebounds to shoul
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:Same magnitude

Explanation:

When ball is dropped from shoulder height h then velocity at the bottom is given by

v_1=\sqrt{2gh}

if it makes elastic collision then it will acquire the same velocity and riser up to the same height

If m is the mass of ball then impulse imparted is given by

J=m(v_2-v_1)

J=2m\sqrt{2gh}

Thus impulse imparted by gravity and Floor will have same magnitude of impulse but direction will be opposite to each other.

Why do blades come in different lengths in a jig saw sander?​
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

To determine the minimum blade length, add 1" to the workpiece thickness. One type of material, and some materials can be cut by more than one type of blade. No matter the material, there's likely a jigsaw blade designed specifically for. Armed with the right blade, follow these pointers to make your work go (and cut) .
