In Millikan's oil-drop experiment, one looks ata small oil drop held motionless between two plates. Take the voltage betwee the

plates to be 2033 V, and the plate separation to be 2.00 cm. The oil drop (of density 0.81 g/cm3) has a diameter of 3.8x10^6m. Find the charge on the drop, in terms of electron units. You need to round your answer to the nearest integer

Answer:

The charge on the drop  is

q = 1.741 x 10 ⁻²¹ C

Explanation:

Electric field due to plates

Ef = V/d  

Ef = 2033 V / (2.0 * 10^-2 m )

Ef = 101650 V/m

So, we can write  

Ef * q = m*g

q = m*g / E f

The mass can be equal using the density and the volume so:

m = ρ * v

The volume can be find as:

v = 2.298 x 10 ⁻ ¹⁶ m³

q =  ρ * v * g / Ef

q =  81 x 10 ³ kg/ m³ * 2.2298 x 10 ⁻ ¹⁶ m³ * 9.8 m/s² / 101650 V/m

The charge on the drop  is

q = 1.741 x 10 ⁻²¹ C

A 297 g block is connected to a light spring with spring constant 4.34 N/m, and displaced 7.45 cm from equilibrium. It is then r
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

x = A sin ω t       describes the displacement of the particle

v = A ω cos ω t

a = -A ω^2 sin ω t        

a (max) = -A ω^2     is the max acceleration (- can be ignored here)

ω = (K/ m)^1/2        for SHM

F = - K x^2     restoring force of spring

K = 4.34 / .0745^2 = 782 N / m

ω = (782 / .297)^1/2 = 51.3 / sec

a (max) = .0745 * 782 / .297 = 196 m / s^2

Provide an example of when momentum is conserved and explain your answer you can get 10 PTS if answered with a good explaination
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

m_1=8\ kg,\ m_2=6\ kg,\ v_1=12\ m/s, v_2=4\ m/s,\ v_1'=-6\ m/s,\ v_2'=28\ m/s

Explanation:

<u>Conservation of Momentum </u>

The total momentum of a system of two particles is

p=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Where m1,m2,v1, and v2 are the respective masses and velocities of the particles at a given time. Then, the two particles collide and change their velocities to v1' and v2'. The final momentum is now

p'=m_1v_1'+m_2v_2'

The momentum is conserved if no external forces are acting on the system, thus

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v_1'+m_2v_2'

Let's put some numbers in the problem and say

m_1=8\ kg,\ m_2=6\ kg,\ v_1=12\ m/s, v_2=4\ m/s,\ v_1'=-6\ m/s,\ v_2'=28\ m/s

(8)(12)+(6)(4)=(8)(-6)+(6)(28)

96+24=-48+168

120=120

It means that when the particles collide, the first mass returns at 6 m/s and the second continues in the same direction at 28 m/s

Which statements correctly describe the properties of air? Select three options. Air has mass but no weight. Air pressure is cre
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

2,4,5

Air pressure is created by the weight of the atmosphere pushing on Earth’s surface.

Denser air is heavier than less dense air.

Air is less dense at higher altitudes.
