As his socks tumbled in the dryer, they became charged. If a small piece of lint with a charge of +1.25 E -19 C is attracted to

the socks by a force of 3.0 E -9 N, what is the magnitude of the electric field at this location?

Answer:

2.4\cdot 10^{10}N

Explanation:

When an electric charge is immersed in an electric field, it experiences a force given by the equation

F=qE

where

q is the charge

E is the magnitude of the electric field

In this problem, we have:

q=+1.25\cdot 10^{-19}C is the charge on the small piece of lint

F=3.0\cdot 10^{-9}N is the force experienced by the  charge

Therefore, we can find the magnitude of the electric field by re-arranging the equation and solving for E:

E=\frac{F}{q}=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^{-9}}{1.25\cdot 10^{-19}}=2.4\cdot 10^{10}N

4. A force of 5 N gives a mass m,, an acceleration of 10 m's, and a mass
Art [367]

Answer:

For mass m  1  newton 2nd law

F=m  1  a  1

​5=m  1  ×10

m  1  =  2 1 kg

For mass m  2

​F=m  2  a 2

​5=m  2 ×20

m  2 =  4 1  kg

if tied together  

Total mass =m  1  +m  2  =  1/2 +1/4=3/4kg  

Now

F=M T  Q T

 a  T    =  5/m T =  5×4/3  =  3 /20m/s^2

PLEASE HELP 15 POINTSexplain properties and importance of light and how it separates into colors
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

It is not a property of light. It is your eyes and brain.

Specifically, the three kinds of cone cells in our eye that are sensitive to different ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum. The fact that there are three means that color is three dimensional, and is the reason the pure colors form a circle even though the spectrum of wavelengths is linear.

Visible light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum; light waves of different frequencies and wavelengths are distinguished as colors by the human eye. A prism can separate the colors of white light (dispersion) because different frequencies of light have different refractive indices for a given material.

A 0.8 kg object displaces 500 mL of water. What is its specific gravity?
Airida [17]
The specific gravity is how the density of the object compares to the density of water. Water's density is 1gram per milliliter. We just need to figure out the density of the object.

The object is .8 kg and it displaces 500mL of water, so the density is the mass divided by the volume. Since the density of water is given in grams, we have to convert the objects mass from kg to g and then we can get the density.

.8kg * 1000g/kg = 800 grams

So

800g/500ml = 1.6grams/mL this is the density.

So divide the density of your object by the density of water, which is 1g/mL, you get 1.6 as the specific gravity. This means the object is 1.6 times more dense than water.

A 2MeV proton is moving perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of 2.5 T.the force on a proton is
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

7.8x10-12N

Explanation:

We know that

Magnetic force = F = qVB

And

Also Kinetic energy K.E is

E = (1/2)mV²

So making v subject

V = √(2E / m)

And

E = KE = 2MeV

= 2 × 106 eV

= 2 × 106 × 1.6 × 10–19 J

= 3.2 × 10–13 J

And then

V= √2x3.2E-13/1.6E-27

1.9E7m/s

Given that

mass of proton = 1.6 × 10–27 kg,

Magnetic field strength B = 2.5 T.

So F= qBv sinစ

=

So F = 1.6 × 10–19 × 2.5 × 1.9 x10^7 x sin 90°

= 7.8 x 10^-12N
