Answer:

yes

Explanation:

this is simple

the horizontal line is adjacent

the vertical line is opposite

recall that cos x=adj/hyp

adj=hyp(cos x)

while opp=hyp(sin x)

A cosmic-ray proton in interstellar space has an energy of 10.0 MeV and executes a circular orbit having a radius equal to that
kherson [118]

Answer:

= 7.88 × 10^-12 T

Explanation:

From the above question, we are told that:

Kinetic Energy of the proton is K. E = 10.0 MeV

Step 1

We convert 10.0 MeV to Joules

1 Mev = 1.602 × 10-13 Joules

10.0 MeV = 10.0 × 1.602 × 10^-13 Joules = 1.602 × 10^-12 J

Hence, the Kinectic energy of a proton = 1.602 × 10^-12 J

Step 2

Find the Speed of the Proton

The formula for Kinectic Energy =

K.E = 1/ 2 mv²

Where

m = mass of the proton

v = speed of the proton

K.E of the proton = 1.602 × 10^-12 J

Mass of the proton = 1.6726219 × 10^-27 kilograms

Speed of the proton = ?

1.602 × 10^-12J = 1/2 × 1.6726219 × 10^-27 × v²

1.602 × 10^-12J = 8.3631095 ×10^-28 × v²

v² = 1.602 × 10^-12/8.3631095 ×10^-28

v = √(1.602 × 10^-12/8.3631095 ×10^-28)

v = 43772331.227m/s

v = 4.3772331227 × 10^7m/s

Approximately = 4.4 × 10^7 m/s

Step 3

Find the Magnetic Field of that region of space

The formula for Magnetic Field =

B = m v / q r

We are told that the proton executes a circular orbit, hence,

mv = √2m(KE)

m = Mass of the proton = 1.6726219 × 10^-27 kg

K.E of the proton = 1.602 × 10^-12 J

v = speed of the proton = 4.4 × 10^7 m/s

q = Electric charge = 1.6 × 10^-19 C

r = radius of the orbit = 5.80Ã10^10 m

= 5.8 × 10^10m

Magnetic Field =

=√ (2 × 1.6726219 × 10^-27 kg × 1.602 × 10^-12 J) /( 1.6 × 10^-19 C × 5.80 × 10^10 m)

= 7.88 × 10^-12 T

The magnetic field in that region of space is approximately 7.88 × 10^-12 T

When AC Electric is producing 120 volts with 20 amps, What controls the the 120 volts at 60cycles a second?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Cycles per second is dependent on the construction of the alternator and the 120 volts is dependent upon the current and resistance in the circuit according to the ohms law.

Explanation:

We are given with AC of 120 volts, 20 amperes and 60 hertz frequency.

<u>According to the Ohm's law, we find its resistance:</u>

R=\frac{V}{I}

R=\frac{120}{20}

R=6\ \Omega

So, this 6 ohm resistance controls the current controls the magnitude of the AC current, while the frequency of the current remains constant and depends upon the construction and rotational speed of the armature of the alternator producing the current.

Here the value of frequency is the number of times the current changes its direction or the polarity in one second.

On your drive home from school, you travel 1200 m in 80 s, then 400 min 20 s.
Mama L [17]

Average speed = Total distance/total time taken

=  \frac{1200 + 400}{80 + 20}

=  \frac{1600}{100}

=  \frac{16}{1}

= 16 \: ms {}^{ - 1}

In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 4.9-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their backs against
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

24.07415 rpm

Explanation:

\mu = Coefficient of friction = 0.63

v = Velocity

d = Diameter = 4.9 m

r = Radius = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{4.9}{2}=2.45\ m

m = Mass

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Here the frictional force balances the rider's weight

f=\mu F_n

The centripetal force balances the weight of the person

\mu m\frac{v^2}{r}=mg\\\Rightarrow \mu \frac{v^2}{r}=g\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{gr}{\mu}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{9.81\times 2.45}{0.63}}\\\Rightarrow v=6.17656\ m/s

Velocity is given by

v=\omega r\\\Rightarrow \omega=\frac{v}{r}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\frac{6.17656}{2.45}\\\Rightarrow \omega=2.52104\ rad/s

Converting to rpm

2.52104\times \frac{60}{2\pi}=24.07415\ rpm

The minimum angular speed for which the ride is safe is 24.07415 rpm
