Answer:

The correct question is:

"Find the energy each gains"

The energy gained by a charged particle accelerated through a potential difference is given by

\Delta U = q\Delta V

where

q is the charge of the particle

\Delta V is the potential difference

For a proton,

q=+e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

And since \Delta V=100 V

The energy gained by the proton is

\Delta U=(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(100)=1.6\cdot 10^{-17}J

For an alpha particle,

q=+2e=3.2\cdot 10^{-19}C

Therefore, the energy gained is

\Delta U=(3.2\cdot 10^{-19})(100)=3.2\cdot 10^{-17}J

Finally, for a singly ionized helium nucleus (a helium nucleus that has lost one electron)

q=+e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

So the energy gained is the same as the proton:

\Delta U=(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(100)=1.6\cdot 10^{-17}J

Certain neutron stars (extremely dense stars) are believed to be rotating at about 500 rev/s. If such a star has a radius of 17
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

7.22 × 10²⁹ kg

Explanation:

For the material to be in place, the gravitational force on the material must equal the centripetal force on the material.

So, F = gravitational force = GMm/R² where M = mass of neutron star, m = mass of object and R = radius of neutron star = 17 km

The centripetal force F' = mRω² where R = radius of neutron star and ω  = angular speed of neutron star

So, since F = F'

GMm/R² = mRω²

GM = R³ω²

M = R³ω²/G

Since ω = 500 rev/s = 500 × 2π rad/s = 1000π rad/s = 3141.6 rad/s = 3.142 × 10³ rad/s and r = 17 km = 17 × 10³ m and G = universal gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Substituting the values of the variables into M, we have

M = R³ω²/G

M = (17 × 10³ m)³(3.142 × 10³ rad/s)²/6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 4913 × 10⁹ m³ × 9.872 × 10⁶ rad²/s²/6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 48,501.942 × 10¹⁵ m³rad²/s² ÷ 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 7217.66 × 10²⁶ kg

M = 7.21766 × 10²⁹ kg

M ≅ 7.22 × 10²⁹ kg

The rotor in a certain electric motor is a flat, rectangular coil with 84 turns of wire and dimensions 2.61 cm by 3.64 cm. The r
ira [324]

Given Information:

Number of turns = N = 84

Area of Rectangular coil = 2.61x3.64 cm = 0.0261x0.0364 m

Magnetic field = B = 0.80 T

Current = I = 10.5 mA = 0.0105 A

Angular speed = ω = 3.54x10³ rev/min

Required Information:

(a) Maximum torque = τmax = ?

(b) Peak output power = Ppeak = ?

(c) Work done = W = ?

(d) Average power = Pavg?

Answer:

(a) Maximum torque = 0.00067 N.m

(b) Peak output power = 0.248 W

(c) Work done = 0.00189 J

(d) Average power = 0.1115 W

Explanation:

(a) The toque τ acting on the rotor is given by,

τ = NIABsin(θ)

Where N is the number of turns, I is the current, A is the area of rectangular coil and B is the magnetic field

A = 0.0261x0.0364

A = 0.00095 m²

The maximum toque τ is achieved when θ = 90°

τmax = NIABsin(90°)

τmax = 84*0.0105*0.00095*0.80*1

τmax = 0.00067 N.m

(b) The peak output power of the motor is given by,

Pmax = τmax*ω

ω = 3.54x10³ x 2π/60

ω = 370.7 rad/sec

Pmax = 0.00067*370.7

Pmax = 0.248 W

(c) The amount of work done by the magnetic field on the rotor in every full revolution is given by

W = 2∫NIABωsin(ωt) dt

W = -2NIABcos(ωt)

Evaluating limits,

W = -2NIABcos(π) - (-2NIABcos(0))

W = 2NIAB + 2NIAB

W = 4NIAB

W = 4*84*0.0105*0.00067*0.80

W = 0.00189 J

(d) Average power of the motor is given by

Pavg = W/t

t = 2π/ω

t = 2π/370.7

t = 0.01694 sec

Pavg = W/t

Pavg = 0.00189/0.01694

Pavg = 0.1115 W

An inductor is connected to the terminals of a battery that has an emf of 16.0 V and negligible internal resistance. The current
balu736 [363]

Answer:

(a) The resistance R of the inductor is 2480.62 Ω

(b) The inductance L of the inductor is 1.67 H

Explanation:

Given;

emf of the battery, V = 16.0 V

current at 0.940 ms = 4.86 mA

after a long time, the current becomes 6.45 mA = maximum current

Part (a) The resistance R of the inductor

R = \frac{V}{I_{max}} = \frac{16}{6.45*10^{-3}} = 2480.62 \ ohms

Part (b)  the inductance L of the inductor

\frac{Rt}{L} = -ln(1-\frac{I}I_{max}})\\\\L = \frac{Rt}{-ln(1-\frac{I}I_{max})}}

where;

L is the inductance

R is the resistance of the inductor

t is time

L = \frac{Rt}{-ln(1-\frac{I}I_{max})}} = \frac{2480.62*0.94*10^{-3}}{-ln(1-\frac{4.86}{6.45})} \\\\L =\frac{2.3318}{1.4004} = 1.67 \ H

Therefore, the inductance is 1.67 H
