Answer

given,

net charge = +2.00 μC

we know,

1 coulomb charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸electrons

1 micro coulomb  charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸ x 10⁻⁶ electron

                                         = 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

2.00 μC = 2 x 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

              = 1.256 x 10¹³ electrons

since net charge is positive.

The number of protons should be 1.256 x 10¹³ more than electrons.

hence, +2.00 μC have 1.256 x 10¹³ more protons than electrons.

Andru [333]

Answer:

Light slows down when it moves from air into water.

Explanation:

It is the property of light that travels faster in a less dense medium.

In a more dense medium, the speed of the light slows down and bends towards the normal.

The air is less dense medium and water is a more dense medium.

When light passes from air to water, the light bends.

This is known as the refraction of light.

. A 2.0-kg block is on a perfectly smooth ramp that makes an angle of 30° with the horizontal. (a) What is the block’s accelerat
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

a) a = 4.9 m / s²,  N = 16.97 N   and b)   F = 9.8 N

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we will use Newton's second law, we write a reference system with the x axis parallel to the plane, see attached, in this system the only force we have to break down is weight, let's use trigonometry

        sin 30 = Wx / W

        cos 30 = Wy / W

        Wx = W sin30

        Wy = W cos 30

Let's write the equations on each axis

X axis

        Wx = ma

Y Axis  

       N- Wy = 0

       N = Wy = mg cos 30

       N = 2.0 9.8 cos 30

       N = 16.97 N

We calculate the acceleration

       a = Wx / m

       a = mg sin 30 / m

       a = g sin 30

       a =9.8 sin 30

       a = 4.9 m / s²

b) For the block to move with constant speed, the acceleration must be zero, so the force applied must be equal to the weight component

      F -Wx = 0

      F = Wx

      F = m g sin 30

      F = 2.0 9.8 sin 30

      F = 9.8 N

A charge of -8.5 µC is traveling at a speed of 9.0 106 m/s in a region of space where there is a magnetic field. The angle betwe
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field is 9.3\times 10^{-5}\ T.

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge, q=-8.5\ \mu C=-8.5\times 10^{-6}\ C

Speed of the charged particle, v=9\times 10^6\ m/s

The angle between the velocity of the charge and the field is 56°.

The magnitude of force, F=5.9\times 10^{-3}\ N

We need to find the magnitude of the magnetic field. When a charged particle moves in the magnetic field, the magnetic force is experienced by it. The force is given by :

F=qvB\ \sin\theta

B is the magnetic field.

B=\dfrac{F}{qv\ \sin\theta}\\\\B=\dfrac{5.9\times 10^{-3}}{8.5\times 10^{-6}\times 9\times 10^6\ \sin(56)}\\\\B=9.3\times 10^{-5}\ T

So, the magnitude of the magnetic field is 9.3\times 10^{-5}\ T. Hence, this is the required solution.
