The electric field between two parallel plates is uniform, with magnitude 628 N/C. A proton is held stationary at the positive p

aliina [53]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

Data Given:

Electric Field between two parallel plates = 628 N/C

Separation = 4.22 cm

a) In this part, we are asked to calculate the distance from positive plate at which the electron and proton pass each other.

Solution:

First of all:

Force on proton due to the Electric field between the plates is:

$F_{p}$ = $q_{p}$ E

and, we know that, F = ma

So,

$m_{p}$ a = $q_{p}$ E

a = $\frac{q_{p}.E }{m_{p} }$ Equation 1

So,

The distance covered by the electron is:

S = ut + 1/2 $at^{2}$

Here, u = 0.

S = 1/2 $at^{2}$

Put equation 1 into the above equation:

S = 1/2 x ( $\frac{q_{p}.E }{m_{p} }$ ) $t^{2}$ Equation 2

So,

Similarly, the distance covered by electron will be:

(D-S) = 1/2 x ( $\frac{q_{e}.E }{m_{e} }$ ) $t^{2}$ Equation 3

We know that the charge of electron is equal to the charge of proton so,

$q_{p}$ = $q_{e}$ = q

By dividing the equation 2 by equation 3, we get:

$\frac{S}{D-S}$ = $\frac{m_{e} }{m_{p} }$

Solve the above equation for S,

S $m_{p}$ = $m_{e}$ D - $m_{e}$ S

So,

S = $\frac{m_{e}.D }{(m_{e} + m_{p}) }$

Plugging in the values,

As we know the mass of electron is 9.1 x $10^{-31}$ and the mass of proton is 1.67 x $10^{-27}$

S = $\frac{9.1 . 10^{-31} . 4.22 }{(9.1 . 10^{-31} + 1.67 . 10^{-27} }$

S = 0.002298 cm (Distance from the positive plate at which the two pass each other)

b) In this part, we to calculate distance for Sodium ion and chloride ion as above.

So,

we already have the equation, we need to put the values in it.

So,

S = $\frac{m_{Cl}.D }{(m_{Cl} + m_{Na}) }$

As we know the mass of chlorine is 35.5 and of sodium is 23

S = $\frac{35.5 . 4.22}{(35.5 + 23)}$

S = 2.56 cm

You are given a vector in the xy plane that has a magnitude of 84.0 units and a y-component of -67.0 units.

melomori [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)Magnitude = $\sqrt{(x1-y2)^{2} + (x1-x2)^{2} }$

84= $\sqrt{(0- (-67))^{2} + (x-0)^{2} }$

x= +50.67 or -50.67 units

b) We are given that the resultant is entirely in the -ve x direction which means that the y-component of the resultant is 0; It means that the y-component of the next vector = -ve of the y component of the initial vector i.e 67.

To make the magnitude 80 units in the negative x direction where the y component is 0, the x component must be -130.67(-50.67 - 80) as the x component is + 50.67units.

Magnitude = $\sqrt{(0- (67))^{2} + (-130.67)^{2} }$ = 146.85 units

c) The direction vector = 67/146.85 i - 130.67/146.85 j where i corresponds to the vector in y direction and j corresponds to the vector in x direction. Or this vector is at an angle of 180 - $Tan^{-1}(67/130.67)degrees$ i.e 152.85 degrees from the +ve x-axis.

NEED HELP !!!!!

goblinko [34]

Answers with Explanations:

1. Answer: True

Explanation:

Muscle cramps happen especially during an "intense workout." The frequency of cramps is related to heat, thus it is important to stay hydrated all throughout the workout. Eating should be done at least 2 to 3 hours prior to workout because eating immediately before exercise leads to undigested food. Such kind of food causes cramps.

2. Answer: True

Explanation: Applying direct pressure immediately after the injury can help decrease bleeding. Blood loss results to blood that is collected under the skin. This turns into the color of blue or black, also known as "bruise." Decrease bleeding would then mean decrease bruising.

Applying pressure also decreases swelling because it restricts the blood flow and fluid from reaching into the injury.

3. Answer: False

Explanation: "Lordosis" refers to the body's natural lordotic curve. This is considered "normal." The excessive inward curve of the lumbar spine is called "hyperlordosis." This is commonly caused by poor posture, lack of exercise, obesity and spinal conditions.

4. Answer: False

Explanation: The mnemonic acronym "RICE" stands for Rest, Ice, Compression (not Cold) and Elevation. This term is commonly used in First Aid and was introduced by Gabe Mirkin in 1978.

5. Answer: True

Explanation: Keeping the proper posture during exercise prevents the body from encountering injuries. It also ensures that the body is executing the exercise by using the muscles properly.

6. Answer: False

Explanation: "Ice" is important in decreasing the swelling of the injury. It constricts the blood vessels which prevents the flow of blood and other fluids towards the site of injury.

7. Answer: False

Explanation: The spine is naturally straight if a person doesn't have a medical problem. However, scoliosis is a medical problem. It is a condition wherein a person's spine is curved, rather than being straight.

8. Answer: True

Explanation: When it comes to exercise, starting slow is the main key. It is followed by gradual building up. The increase will depend on the person's stamina. For example, starting with a warm-up, followed by a slow walk then pacing up to a brisk walk.

9. Answer: True

Explanation: Kyphosis is a spinal condition wherein the person's spine is excessively curved outward. This causes the upper back and the shoulders to be rounded. This condition is commonly called "hunchback."

10. Answer: True

Explanation: Proper posture entails the right amount of spinal curve. This means that the spine is in "neutral position." This means that the spine takes on the "S-shape." A little amount of curve results to a "flat back" while too much curve results to a "swayback."

11. Answer: all of the above

Explanation: Body posture and technique are important especially when it comes to exercise. Poor posture and technique lead to strain on joints, ligaments and injury especially to the muscles. This also puts the body out of alignment.

12. Answer: True

Explanation: Stretching is appropriately done at the end of a warm-up when the temperature has increased because at this time, the muscles are already flexible. It allows the muscles to be loosened and also aids in better performance during workouts or exercises.

13. Answer: False

Explanation: "Lifting" with your back only will result to muscle injury. There are several ways to do lifting such as "pull-ups" or "lat pull downs." This means that you are not lifting with your back only but using your other joints and muscles for lifting.

14. Answer: True

Explanation: "Warming-up" is an essential preparation before any workout because it prepares the body by increasing temperature and blood flow to the muscles. Without it, the muscles will become sore and the chance for injuries increases.

15. Answer: True

Explanation: "Cool down" is considered equally important as "warm-up." It lowers the body's temperature and lowers the amount of lactic acid that causes muscle cramping, soreness and stiffness.

16. Answer: True

Explanation: It is said that most people forget about warming up and cooling down before and after they work out. It is necessary to have 5 to 10 minutes of warm-up and cool down for every exercise routine.

17. Answer: False

Explanation: Knee extension is best done at 90 degrees angle as advised by most health experts. However, it depends on your capability and your exercise goals. For some people, extending beyond 90 degrees is beneficial.

18. Answer: True

Explanation: Tucking your belly button helps with your body's core exercise. If this is going to be done throughout the day, then surely it will strengthen the muscles. This can be done while a person is sitting down or walking.
