A proton moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B with arrow at a speed of 2.40 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration

noname [10]

Answer:

0.00956770833 T

Explanation:

q = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

m = Mass of proton = $1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

a = Acceleration = $2.2\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2$

v = Velocity = $2.4\times 10^{7}\ m/s$

Magnetic field is given by

$B=\dfrac{ma}{qv}\\\Rightarrow B=\dfrac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 2.2\times 10^{13}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2.4\times 10^{7}}\\\Rightarrow B=0.00956770833\ T$

The magnetic field is 0.00956770833 T

Which statement is accurate about how the aurora borealis is formed?

g100num [7]

Answer:

When the electrons jump to a higher energy state, they release energy as electromagnetic radiation, light.

Explanation:

When the solar wind gets past the magnetic field and travels towards the Earth, it runs into the atmosphere. As the protons and electrons from the solar wind hit the particles in the Earth's atmosphere, they release energy – and this is what causes the northern lights.

How much mass does the sun lose through nuclear fusion per second?

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

1.10^6 kg of mass per second

Explanation:

All energy lost by the sun comes from nuclear fusion.

Sun loses energy at 2.5*10^{19}J per hour, that is 9*10^{22}J/s

To find the mass lost by the sun in liberation of energy you use the famous Einstein's equation:

$E=mc^2\\\\m=\frac{E}{c^2}=\frac{9*10^{22}}{(3*10^{8}m/s)^2}=1*10^6kg$
