A proton and an electron traveling with the same velocity enter a uniform electric field. compared to the acceleration of the pr
kenny6666 [7]
The acceleration of the electron is larger than the acceleration of the proton.

The reason for this is that the mass of the electron is smaller (about 1000 times smaller) than the mass of the proton. The two particles have same charge (e), so they experience the same force under the same electric field E:
F=eE 
However, according to Newton's second law, the force is the product between the mass particle, m, and its acceleration, a:
F=ma 
which can be rewritten as
a= \frac{F}{m}
we said that the force exerted on the two particles, F, is the same, while the mass of the electron is smaller: therefore, from the last formula we see that the acceleration of the electron will be larger than that of the proton.

A(n) _____ satellite system employs many satellites, each in an orbit at an altitude of less than 1,000 miles.
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The correct answer is a Low earth orbit.

Explanation:

A low earth orbit can be understood as an earth orbit with an altitude of 1,000 miles or less. It is a satellite sustem that employs many satelites, in fact, most man-made objects that are currently in outer-space are part of this low earth orbit. (LEO).

The most famous LEO satellite system is the one from planet earth. Almost every space flight that human beings have ever done are done in LEO, and every spacial station is located in this zone.

In conclusion, A low earth orbit satellite system employs many satellites, each in an orbit at an altitude of less than 1,000 miles.

Oscilloscopes have parallel metal plates inside them to deflect the electron beam. These plates are called the deflecting plates
Alina [70]

Answer:

The capacitance of the deflecting plates is C=1.59 pF.

Explanation:

The expression for the capacitance of the capacitor in terms of area and distance is as follows;

C=\frac{\varepsilon _{0}A}{d}

Here, C is the capacitance, A is the area, d is the distance and \varepsilon _{0} is the absolute permittivity.

Convert the side of the square from cm to m.

s= 3.0 cm

s= 0.030 m

Calculate the area of the square.

A= s_^{2}

Put s= 0.030 m.

A=(0.030)_^{2}

A=9\times10^{-4}m^{-2}

Convert distance from mm to m.

d= 5.0 mm

d=5\times10^{-3}m

Calculate the capacitance of the deflecting plates.

C=\frac{\varepsilon _{0}A}{d}

Put d=5\times10^{-3}m, A=9\times10^{-4}m^{-2} and \varepsilon _{0}=8.85\times 10^{-12}Fm^{-1}.

C=\frac{(8.85\times 10^{-12})(9\times10^{-4})}{5\times10^{-3}}

C=1.59\times 10^{-12}F

C=1.59 pF

Therefore, the capacitance of the deflecting plates is C=1.59 pF.
