Answer:

a) 800 keV

b)  24.996 km.

Explanation:

(a) we have

\large \Delta K.E=q\Delta V  .............(1)

where,

\large \Delta K.E = Change in kinetic energy

q = charge of an electron

\Delta V = Potential difference

also

\large E=\frac{V}{d}       .......(2)

E = electric field

d = distance traveled

Now from (1) and (2) we have,

\large \Delta K. E=qV=qEd

substituting the values in the above equation, we get

\large \Delta K. E=(1.6\times 10^{-19}C)(2\times 10^6V/m)(0.400m)(\frac{1eV}{1.6\times 10^{-19}J})(\frac{1keV}{1000eV})

\large \Delta K. E=800keV

Thus, the energy gained by the electron is <u>800 keV</u> if it is accelerated over a distance of 0.400 m.

(b) Using the equation (1), we have

\large d=\frac{\Delta K.E}{qE}

\large d=\frac{(50\times 10^9eV)}{(1.6\times 10^{-19C})(2\times 10^6V/m)}(\frac{1.6\times 10^{-19}J}{1eV})

or

\large d=2.4996\times 10^4m

or

\large d=24.996\times 10^3m=24.996km

Thus, to gain 50.0 GeV of energy the electron must be accelerated over a distance of<u> 24.996 km.</u>

Answer:

a) 800 keV

b) 25 km

Explanation:

Strength\ of\ Electric\ field=2\times 10^6\ V/m\\a)\ Potential\ Difference=Strength\ of\ Electric\ field\times Distance\\\Rightarrow Potential\ Difference=Kinetic\ Energy\ =2\times 10^6\times 0.4\\\therefore Energy=0.8\times 10^6\ eV=800\ keV\\

b)\ Potential\ difference=50\ GeV=50\times 10^9\ eV\\Distance=\frac{Potential\ difference}{electric\ field}\\\Rightarrow Distance=\frac{50\times 10^9}{2\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow Distance=25\times 10^3\ m\\\therefore Distance=25\ km

In the design of a supermarket, there are to be several ramps connecting different parts of the store. Customers will have to pu
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

3.90 degrees

Explanation:

Let g= 9.81 m/s2. The gravity of the 30kg grocery cart is

W = mg = 30*9.81 = 294.3 N

This gravity is split into 2 components on the ramp, 1 parallel and the other perpendicular to the ramp.

We can calculate the parallel one since it's the one that affects the force required to push up

F = WsinΘ

Since customer would not complain if the force is no more than 20N

F = 20

294.3sin\theta = 20

sin\theta = 20/294.3 = 0.068

\theta = sin^{-1}0.068 = 0.068 rad = 0.068*180/\pi \approx 3.90^0

So the ramp cannot be larger than 3.9 degrees

A 5kg box is being pulled for a force of 20 n and is sliding with an acceleration of 2 m/s. Find the coefficient of friction
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Coefficient of friction = 0.5

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of box = 5 kg

Force applied = 20 N

Acceleration = 2 m/s²

Find:

Coefficient of friction

Computation:

Friction force = Mass x Acceleration.

Friction force =  5 x 2

Friction force = 10 N

Coefficient of friction = Friction force / Force applied

Coefficient of friction = 10 / 20

Coefficient of friction = 0.5
