To solve this problem we will start from the definition of Force, as the product between the electric field and the proton charge. Once the force is found, it will be possible to apply Newton's second law, and find the proton acceleration, knowing its mass. Finally, through the linear motion kinematic equation we will find the speed of the proton.

PART A ) For the electrostatic force we have that is equal to

F=qE

Here

q= Charge

E = Electric Force

F=(1.6*10^{-19}C)(2750N/C)

F = 4.4*10^{-16}N

PART B) Rearrange the expression F=ma for the acceleration

a = \frac{F}{m}

Here,

a = Acceleration

F = Force

m = Mass

Replacing,

a = \frac{4.4*10^{-16}N}{1.67*10^{-27}kg}

a = 2.635*10^{11}m/s^2

PART C) Acceleration can be described as the speed change in an instant of time,

a = \frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

There is not v_i then

a = \frac{v_f}{t}

Rearranging to find the velocity,

v_f = at

v_f = (2.635*10^{11})(1.4*10^{-6})

v_f = 3.689*10^{5}m/s

A thin flake of mica (n=1.58) is used to cover one slit of a double-slit interference arrangement. The central point on the wiew
Llana [10]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the optical concepts related to the phase difference between two or more materials.

By definition we know that the phase between two light waves that are traveling on different materials (in this case also two) is given by the equation

\Phi = 2\pi(\frac{L}{\lambda}(n_1-n_2))

Where

L = Thickness

n = Index of refraction of each material

\lambda = Wavelength

Our values are given as

\Phi = 7(2\pi)

L=t

n_1 = 1.58

n_2 = 1

\lambda = 550nm

Replacing our values at the previous equation we have

\Phi = 2\pi(\frac{L}{\lambda}(n_1-n_2))

7(2\pi) = 2\pi(\frac{t}{\lambda}(1.58-1))

t = \frac{7*550}{1.58-1}

t = 6637.931nm \approx 6.64\mu m

Therefore the thickness of the mica is 6.64μm

Why is it important to develop alternative energy sources
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The alternative energy sources are defined as those resources that are used in place of the natural and non-renewable resources. This resources plays an important role in the conservation of natural resources.

The fossil fuels are the resources on which the people are directly dependent. Burning up of these fossils leads to the emission of carbon, which has a direct impact on earth. A small increase in the amount of carbon dioxide can lead to the increase in the surface temperature of earth.

In addition to this, these fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum, oil and natural gases are found to be present in a limited proportion, and it is a very expensive process to obtain these resources, so sustainable development method must be adopted in order to save this natural resources for the future generation.

Some of the examples of alternative resources that are widely used in place of fossil fuels are wind energy, solar energy, tidal energy, biomass energy and bio-fuels.

Thus, it is very important to develop and use alternative resources.

1.- An elevator is being lowered at a constant speed by a steel cable attached to an electric motor. Which statement is correct?
Nady [450]

Answer:

the correct one is C

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the work definition

    W = F. s

Where the bold characters indicate vectors and the point is the scalar producer

    W = F s cos θ

Where θ is the angles between force and displacement.

Let us support this in our case. The cable creates an upward tension and with the elevator going down the angle between them is 180º so the work of the cable on the elevator is negative.

The evade has a downward force, its weight so the force goes down and the displacement goes down, as both are in the same direction the work is positive

When examining the statements the correct one is C

lesya [120]

Answer:

When a car stops suddenly, the inertia the keeps you moving forward will finally stop and give you whiplash, which could seriously injure or even kill a baby. With the seat turned back, the force will be decreased dramatically, and prevent any fatal harm.
