Consider an electron, of charge magnitude e = 1.602 10-19 C and mass me = 9.11 10-31 kg, moving in an electric field with an ele

ctric field magnitude E = 8 ✕ 102 N/C, similar to what Thana observed in the simulation. Let the length of the plates be L = 50 cm, and the distance between them be d = 20 cm. Find the maximum speed, v, the electron could be moving if it enters the space halfway between and parallel to the two plates to just barely strike one of the plates.>> If the field is pointing upward, which plate will Thana conclude the electron strikes at this speed?A] The lower plate, because the electron is attracted to the negative plate.B] The lower plate, because the electron is negatively charged. C] The upper plate, because we are only considering the magnitude of the electron charge, and magnitudes are always positive.D] The upper plate, because the electron charge magnitude is positive.

Answer: v= 7.509 x 10^6 m/s

B) the lower plate because the electron is negatively charged

Explanation:

From the question

Electronic charge (q) =1.602 x 10^-19c

Electric field intensity (E) = 8 x 10² = 800N/C

Mass of electron (m) = 9.11 x 10^-31 kg

Length of plate (L) = 50cm=0.5m

Distance between plates (D) = 20cm = 0.2m

Since the electron is entering a uniform electric field, the resulting motion will be of a constant acceleration and can be defined by the equations of motion with a constant acceleration.

From newton's law of motion.

F= ma

The force (F) is coming from the electric field which is

F=Eq.

Thus F = 800 x 1.602 x 10^-19

F = 1.2816 x 10^-16 N

Acceleration of electron (a) = F/m where m is the mass of electron (given above)

Hence

a = 1.2816 x 10^-16 / 9.11 x 10^-31

a= 1.41 x 10¹⁴ m/s².

Using Newton laws of motion to get velocity, we recall that v²= u² + 2ad

Where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity (zero in this case because the electron starts it motion from rest), a= acceleration, d= distance traveled (which in this case is distance between plates)

v² = 0² + 2(1.41 x 10¹⁴) x 0.2

v² = 5.64 x 10¹³

Thus v = √ 5.64 x 10¹³

v = 7.509 x 10^6 m/s

Since the electric field is upwards it denotes that the positive plate is downward and the negative is upward ( this is because electric flux from a positive charge has an outward flow and that from a negative charge has an inward flow. So from our questions, if the electric field is upward, it means it is starting from the bottom plate which will be positive) the electron (which is negatively charged) will be attracted to the positive plate which is downward for this question of ours.

So therefore, the electron is attracted to the downward plate because it (electron) is negative

The engineer of a passenger train traveling at 25.0m/s sights a freight train whose caboose is 200m ahead on the same track. The
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

No, there won't be a collision.

Explanation:

We will use the constant acceleration formulas to calculate,

v = u + a*t

0 = 25 + (-0.1)*t

t = 250 seconds (the time taken for the passenger train to stop)

v^2 = u^2 + 2*a*s

0 = (25)^2  + 2*(-0.1)*s

s = 3125 m (distance traveled by passenger train to stop)

If the distance traveled by freight train in 250 seconds is less than (3125-200=2925 m) than the collision will occur

Speed*time = distance

Distance = (15)*(250)

Distance = 3750 m

As the distance is way more, there won’t be a collision

An object is located 70 cm from a concave mirror with a focal length of 15 cm. What is the image
Stels [109]

(a) The distance of the image formed by the concave mirror is 19.1 cm.

(b) The image formed is diminished and real.

<h3>Image distance </h3>

The distance of the image formed by the concave mirror is calculated as follows;

1/f = 1/v + 1/u

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/15 - 1/70

1/v = 0.05238

v = 1/0.05238

v = 19.1 cm

The image distance is smaller than object distance, thus the image formed is diminished and real.

Bryce, a mouse lover, keeps his four pet mice in a roomy cage, where they spend much of their spare time–when they\'re not sleep
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

mice total momentum (-0.000250, 0.00639) Kg m

Explanation:

To calculate the moment of the mice we must multiply their mass by their velocities, remember that the moment is a vector quantity, so we use the components of velocity

mouse 1

  m1 = 0.0225 Kg

  V1 = (0.869, -0.283) m / s

 

  Px = m Vx

  Px1 = 0.0225 0.869

  Px1 = 0.01955 Kg m

  Py = m Vy

  Py1 = 0.0225 (-0.283)

  Py1 = -0.006368 Kg m

  P1 = (0.0196, -0.00637) Kg m

Mouse 2

 m2 = 0.0223 Kg

 Px2 = 0.0223 (-0.883) = -0.0196 Kg m

 Py2 = 0.0223 (-0.253) = -0.00564 Kg m

 P2 = (-0.0196, -0.00564) Kg m

Mouse 3

 m3 = 0.0197

 Px3 = 0.0197 0.345 = 0.00680 Kg m

 Py3 = 0.0197 0.803 = 0.0158 Kg m

 P3 = (0.00680, 0.0158) Kg m

Mouse4

  m4 = 0.0127 Kg

  Px4 = 0.0127 (-0.555) = -0.00705 Kg m

  Py4 = 0.0127 0.205 = 0.00260 Kg m

  P4 = (-0.00705, 0.00260) Kg m

To find the total momentum we must add each component of the individual moments

   Px = Px1 + Px2 + Px3 + Px4  

   Py = py1 + Py2 + Py3 + Py4

   Px = 0.0196 -0.0196 +0.00680 -0.00705

   Px = -0,000250 Kg m

   Py = -0.00637 -0.00564 +0.0158 +0.00260

   Py = 0.00639 Kg m

   P = (-0.000250, 0.00639) Kg m
