At the equator, near the surface of the Earth, the magnetic field is approximately 50.0 μT northward, and the electric field is

MArishka [77]

Answer:

A) F_g = 8.9278 × 10^(-30)

B) F_e = 1.6 × 10^(-17) N upwards

C) F_m = 6.8 × 10^(-17) N downwards

Explanation:

A) Formula for gravitational force is;

F_g = m_e × g

m_e is mass of electron = 9.11 x 10^(-31) kg

F_g = 9.11 x 10^(-31) × 9.8

F_g = 8.9278 × 10^(-30) N downwards

B) Formula for Electric force is;

F_e = qe

q is charge on electron = 1.6 × 10^(-19) C

E is electric field = 100 N/C

F_e = 1.6 × 10^(-19) × 100

F_e = 1.6 × 10^(-17) N upwards

C) Magnetic force is given by the formula;

F_m = qVB

q is charge on electron = 1.6 × 10^(-19) C

V is velocity given as 8.50 × 10^(6) m/s

B is magnetic field = 50.0 μT = 50 × 10^(-6) T

F_m = 1.6 × 10^(-19) × 8.50 × 10^(6) × 50 × 10^(-6)

F_m = 6.8 × 10^(-17) N downwards

A 1.65 kg mass stretches a vertical spring 0.260 m If the spring is stretched an additional 0.130 m and released, how long does

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

The system will take approximately 0.255 seconds to reach the (new) equilibrium position.

Explanation:

We notice that block-spring system depicts a Simple Harmonic Motion, whose equation of motion is:

$y(t) = A\cdot \cos \left(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\cdot t +\phi\right)$ (1)

Where:

$y(t)$ - Position of the mass as a function of time, measured in meters.

$A$ - Amplitude, measured in meters.

$k$ - Spring constant, measured in newtons per meter.

$m$ - Mass of the block, measured in kilograms.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

$\phi$ - Phase, measured in radians.

The spring is now calculated by Hooke's Law, that is:

$k = \frac{m\cdot g}{\Delta y}$ (2)

Where:

$g$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$\Delta y$ - Deformation of the spring due to gravity, measured in meters.

If we know that $m=1.65\,kg$ , $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $\Delta y = 0.260\,m$ , then the spring constant is:

$k = \frac{(1.65\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}{0.260\,m}$

$k = 62.237\,\frac{N}{m}$

If we know that $A = 0.130\,m$ , $k = 62.237\,\frac{N}{m}$ , $m=1.65\,kg$ , $x(t) = 0\,m$ and $\phi = 0\,rad$ , then (1) is reduced into this form:

$0.130\cdot \cos (6.142\cdot t)=0$ (1)

And now we solve for $t$ . Given that cosine is a periodic function, we are only interested in the least value of $t$ such that mass reaches equilibrium position. Then:

$\cos (6.142\cdot t) = 0$

$6.142\cdot t = \cos^{-1} 0$

$t = \frac{1}{6.142}\cdot \left(\frac{\pi}{2} \right)\,s$

$t \approx 0.255\,s$

The system will take approximately 0.255 seconds to reach the (new) equilibrium position.

Describe the energy transfer when you touch a block of ice with your hand

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Thermal energy always flows from the warmer object to the colder object. This causes your hand to get cold, while the ice absorbs your heat and melts.

What would be the velocity of a sound wave in the air with a frequency of 260Hz?

enyata [817]

The speed of sound in air doesn't depend on the frequency of the sound. It depends on the temperature, pressure, and humidity of the air. It's usually around <em>340 m/s</em> .
