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

Answer:

.409 N

Explanation:

For this to balance, the moments around the fulcrum must sum to zero.

On the left you have   .21   ( is that down? I will assume it is)

      Counterclockwise moments :

        .21 * 40     +  1.0 * 20    

     Clockwise moments :

        .5 * 20     +     F * 45

these moments must equal each other

.21*40 + 1 *20   =  .5 * 20 + F * 45

   F = .409 N

What’s the formula for work
padilas [110]

Answer:

Fd

Explanation:

Work is force times distance. If you push on an object really hard but it does not budge, you have still performed no work on it, because anything times zero is still zero.

Un the way to the moon, the Apollo astro-
kherson [118]

Answer:

Distance =  345719139.4[m]; acceleration = 3.33*10^{19} [m/s^2]

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's universal gravitation law.

In the attached image we can find a schematic of the locations of the Earth and the moon and that the sum of the distances re plus rm will be equal to the distance given as initial data in the problem rt = 3.84 × 108 m

r_{e} = distance earth to the astronaut [m].\\r_{m} = distance moon to the astronaut [m]\\r_{t} = total distance = 3.84*10^8[m]

Now the key to solving this problem is to establish a point of equalisation of both forces, i.e. the point where the Earth pulls the astronaut with the same force as the moon pulls the astronaut.

Mathematically this equals:

F_{e} = F_{m}\\F_{e} =G*\frac{m_{e} *m_{a}}{r_{e}^{2}  } \\

F_{m} =G*\frac{m_{m}*m_{a}  }{r_{m} ^{2} } \\where:\\G = gravity constant = 6.67*10^{-11}[\frac{N*m^{2} }{kg^{2} } ] \\m_{e}= earth's mass = 5.98*10^{24}[kg]\\ m_{a}= astronaut mass = 100[kg]\\m_{m}= moon's mass = 7.36*10^{22}[kg]

When we match these equations the masses cancel out as the universal gravitational constant

G*\frac{m_{e} *m_{a} }{r_{e}^{2}  } = G*\frac{m_{m} *m_{a} }{r_{m}^{2}  }\\\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e}^{2}  } = \frac{m_{m} }{r_{m}^{2}  }

To solve this equation we have to replace the first equation of related with the distances.

\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e}^{2}  } = \frac{m_{m} }{r_{m}^{2} } \\\frac{5.98*10^{24} }{(3.84*10^{8}-r_{m}  )^{2}  } = \frac{7.36*10^{22}  }{r_{m}^{2} }\\81.25*r_{m}^{2}=r_{m}^{2}-768*10^{6}* r_{m}+1.47*10^{17}  \\80.25*r_{m}^{2}+768*10^{6}* r_{m}-1.47*10^{17} =0

Now, we have a second-degree equation, the only way to solve it is by using the formula of the quadratic equation.

r_{m1,2}=\frac{-b+- \sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c }  }{2*a}\\  where:\\a=80.25\\b=768*10^{6} \\c = -1.47*10^{17} \\replacing:\\r_{m1,2}=\frac{-768*10^{6}+- \sqrt{(768*10^{6})^{2}-4*80.25*(-1.47*10^{17}) }  }{2*80.25}\\\\r_{m1}= 38280860.6[m] \\r_{m2}=-2.97*10^{17} [m]

We work with positive value

rm = 38280860.6[m] = 38280.86[km]

<u>Second part</u>

<u />

The distance between the Earth and this point is calculated as follows:

re = 3.84 108 - 38280860.6 = 345719139.4[m]

Now the acceleration can be found as follows:

a = G*\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e} ^{2} } \\a = 6.67*10^{11} *\frac{5.98*10^{24} }{(345.72*10^{6})^{2}  } \\a=3.33*10^{19} [m/s^2]

Why construction is present near the bulb ​
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The constriction causes the mercury column to break under tension, leaving a vacuum between the bottom of the column and that in the bulb, and the top of the column stays still at the position reached in the body - a "peak hold" system.
